Toy Story 1 and 2 Day/Night

Last weekend we had a Toy Story 1 and 2 day. We started the movies early so we had lunch/movies snacks.

During the movies the kids played with some Mr Potato Heads and did a couple of crafts. Even my 16 yr old watched the first movie with us and played a few rounds of Rock Em Sock Em Robots!

Finished crafts, cowboys cutouts and a picture frame my DD did (the boys didn't want to do one)

For dinner I went with a Woody's Round Up theme. We had G.I Sloppy Joes, Jessie's Rootin Tootin beans, Prospector's Gold corn and Weezy's cheesy mac and cheese. For dessert my DD made Sheriff Woody badge cookies.

After dinner the kids played a Toy Story Buckaroo game and played Pin the Tail on Bullseye. We ended the day with a few games of the Toy Story Mania Wii game.

I actually had so much stuff put away for Toy Story that I didn't get a chance to use it all, guess I'll have to keep it and hope Toy Story 4 isn't too far away

Becc1,

Do you make your water labels yourself or do you find them somewhere? I love them and want to copy, if you don't mind!!

We had our Little Mermaid night on Saturday. It didn't work out exactly how I had hoped. My DH was supposed to be working Saturday night however the training session he was going to be coaching got cancelled so he was home. He did not want Ursala dogs for dinner. So instead we went with a whole surf and turf meal since Ariel starts in the water and ends on land (I know I was streching the theme a little). So we had shrimp cocktail, steak, corn pudding, fruit salad, and bread. We had sand for desert. As for the activies I had the kids color an under the water scene picture, we played go fish, and then I found an activity where the kids could answer questions and it would tell them what type of fish they were. We had a Shark, Angel Fish, and Clow Fish.
The kids had a great time.

The kids really want to see The odd life of timothy green. I am trying to figure out what I could do for that one before we go to theater to watch the movie. Anyone have any ideas? Our next official movie night we picked Tangled. Hopefully this time I will remember to take pictures.

That's so funny that you posted this because I was going to go over to that same site and post a link to the Rapunzel stuff. I already am thinking of things for a Rapunzel night. We saw the movie back in November and my kids can't wait for it to come out on dvd in March!

Don't forget Rapunzel's favorite soup

Thanks for the links. Our next movie night we will be watching Tangled and these are great ideas.

I don't mind at all, I get lots of my ideas from others so I'm happy to pass anything along!

Here's the link, I found it on Pinterest http://www.scribd.com/doc/47824537/Buzz-Lightyear-Bottle-Wrap-Download

love the mickey head shaped bowls, where did you get them?

I got the Mickey one last summer from the Disney store and the pink Minnie one from Target earlier this summer.

Thanks for the links. Our next movie night we will be watching Tangled and these are great ideas.

Your welcome, have fun with you Tangled night, my DD and I love that movie!

I love the idea for a surf and turf meal. We did a Under the Sea night with Nemo and The Little Mermaid last year but my DD wants to have just an Ariel night so I may have to borrow your idea!

We did a haunted mansion dinner nite, threw it together quickly. Started with a spinach soup (spinach and yogurt soup on allrecipes) ... Aka slime soup. Made the kids a neon green punch using frozen limeade, water, green koolaid powder and lemon like soda. Dinner was maggots and eyeballs ( macaroni noodles topped with meatballs and marinara sauce - use your favorite meatball recipe and put a stuffed green olive in each one so it looks like a pupil) served with a salad and garlic bread. My intention was to buy refrigerated breadsticks and shape them into either bones or fingers but my closest grocer was out. Dessert was iced pumpkin bars. I used a hand shaped cookie cutter to sprinkle pumpkin pie spice on top so it looked like ghostly handprints.

We Just had our first of 17 Disney Movies spectacular. It was something I wanted to do to count down to Disney. We go to Disney on December 10, 2012. I thought it would be a great way to get excited about Disney for hubby and I, we have two sons one is only one month and the other 18 months. We will be doing this Disney trip a lone. It is our first trip to Disney ever and we are going during the most magical time of year…. Christmas. Okay enough about us; the movie we choose is John Carter. We have never watched this movie and when I researched what it was about I kept coming up with mars. So I made Mars related theme.
This is Barsoom Smoothie(oj,spinach,banana,green food coloring

Cosmic Salad

White Ape in basket

I also made some Mars-cakes(pancakes w/strawberry compote)
This is my Husbands Plate

This is my plate with helium eggs

Nicholas enjoying his food
&watching the movie

The movie was really good, i was not expecting that lol. This was hard because I had no idea what to cook, all i knew was guy from earth goes to mars lol.

 

[bellaally]

Had a blast making the food for this meal.

made fried dumplings with sweet and sour sauce.
Supper easy just bought premade wonton wrappers, seasoned ground beef and pork with Asian spices.

avor, then added pork)

For dessert I made Nutella and banana wontons. I served them with vanilla bean ice cream.

Great movie. I love a girl who can be as tough as the guys lol. My favorite part of the movie. What makes me most proud is having you for a daughter. I always cry at that part lol.

We finally started our Disney Movie days thanks to all the great ideas here.

First was Ariel for my dgd's birthday:

We purchased the cake from Walmart, lunch was Sebastian sandwiches, clam shell chips and blue ocean water to drink (thanks to whoever posted this idea here). My dgd's also painted under the sea pictures on poster board with water colors.

 

[krd315]

Second was Brave after we went to see the movie at the theater:

We had soda and popcorn at the movie, Shepard's pie for dinner and cookies for dessert.
we hand painted sugar cookies - I found food color paint pens at walmart

Next week we are going to do Alice in Wonderland.

We are going to Disney for MNSSHP and wearing Alice costumes so it will be a dress rehearsal

Our movie tonight was Princess and the Frog. We switched it up by doing the meal first, then games and crafts, followed by the movie.

Our meal was Gumbo with rice, French bread, Froggy Slime to drink, and beignets for dessert!

After Dinner, the kids did coloring pages and made prince and princess crowns while we cleaned up

Then came games!!

First was "Kiss the frog"

Daddy even played!

Justice was the winner! No one got close!

Then we played "Fly Catcher" We printed out pictures of flies, then put tape on top and they had to catch them with the blow horns like frog tongues! First one to six won!

Then we had frog races. The kids had to jump the frogs down to the other end and back.

Prizes for the games were chocolate coins and beads! After games came crafts. We made Mardi Gras masks and hats for Dr. Facilier to wear to Mardi Gras

Since we go to the World soon, we are doing Disney Movie Night once a week. Next week's show will be....Little Mermaid!

We had an Animal Kingdom themed birthday party for my six year old granddaughter on Saturday. There are too many pictures to do it all over again, but if you are interested, you can see them on the link below.

Brooklynn is animal crazy, and she could spend hours at Animal Kingdom and at The Seas at Epcot. She requested the Animal Kingdom theme, and we were happy to oblige. Hope you enjoy seeing the pictures, as I love seeing all of your ideas.

The rest of the party is here:

The only small glitch in this party was that my daughter went to the hospital Friday afternoon with contractions and we stayed there until nearly two o'clock in the morning before she left! We got home at 2:20, slept until about 5:30, and then got up and got started on the house, cake, grocery shopping, decorating, and such. Needless to say, we hit the hay early Saturday night.
