On the 12th day of Christmas break...

This should be the official last day of the Christmas break thing, but I'm so thankful that it's not the real end to Christmas break.

I wanted to end the the 12 days of Christmas break fun with a bang.  So we went to see a movie that I had been looking forward to for quite a while.

We Bought a Zoo...


Oh my goodness...what a great movie.  Even the kids enjoyed it...although I would not categorize this as a kid's movie.  It's a heavy subject matter, but one that my kids are acquainted with.  Grief and the loss of a parent is so hard,  I was a little worried in the first few minutes that this movie might not be a wise choice for my kids.  But they both loved it.  I would definitely recommend it.  There is a bit of language though, and it is not really a movie little kids would enjoy.  Just my opinion thought.  Great movie.

After the movie, we used our restaurant.com gift certificate to get all this Chinese food....


We got $35 worth of food for about $10.  An excellent score!

It was definitely a great way to end our 12 days of Christmas break tradition!
