Family Traditions

Ever since I can remember one of my favorite family traditions was movie night on Sundays with popcorn, cheese and apples. Kinda of an odd combinations but turns out they are great together. I'm pretty positive it was my mom that came up with this fun tradition but who ever did, it stuck.

I now get to carry on this fun simple tradition with my own kids. Yeah I can't eat the popcorn or the cheese right now but hanging out on a spread out blanket in our jammies watching a movie  with our favorite snacks still makes my heart happy. It reminds me of just how important it is to create these special moments for my kids, making traditions or reliving old ones that can be passed on from generation to generation. Whether it be for holidays birthdays or any old regular day, simple or big traditions can be an awesome family experience.

For this particular movie night I decided to give jiffy pop a whirl. Pretty cool for the kids and got my heart rate going, I didn't realize the bags gets so big. I thought it was going pop covering us in roasting popcorn, but we survived and the popcorn was a hit.
