Hit: A day off with the family. I only take one day a week, so we try to make it special.
Miss: Running errands with the family when nothing seems to work out. We couldn't find what we needed at the store, we couldn't buy the phones Shannon wanted; everywhere we turned we came up empty handed.
Hit: Enchanted (2007). Mom insisted that we rent this Disney tale and we really enjoyed it. What a pleasant, funny, heart-warming movie.
Miss: Bee Movie (2007). The other movie we rented – ugh. It just wasn't funny. The boys didn't seem to like it at all and it was painful for us. I actually fell asleep toward the end for a few moments. Yuck.
Hit: No phone calls. Normally when I take a day off, especially if we're watching movies, we get a phone call every 10 minutes. Yet this time we were undisturbed for most of the afternoon.
Miss: Rainy, dreary days. But even an overcast day is okay when you snuggle up for the afternoon to watch movies.
Hit: Shannon's homemade cinnamon rolls. How many moms can make the kind of delectable
foods Shannon makes completely from scratch? You can put Shannon in a kitchen with nothing but basic ingredients and she can make an amazing feast.
Miss: All four boys bouncing off the walls. Without the chance to burn off extra energy (thank you trampoline) they do get a bit stir-crazy.

Basic ingredients and a cook book. :)
Odd - I laughed out loud several times during Bee Movie and my kids watched it twice...they loved it. I thought the subtle humor and satire was great.
