Monday Matinee

I HAVEN'T BEEN to a movie in a theater in almost 18 months (that's what three kids can do a social life). But today that changed. Patrick, Julia, and I went to Cannes to see...High School Musical 3.

A colleague of mine suggested the idea a couple weeks ago (she has 3 kids as well) and we thought it would be fun. Kerri and Henry didn't come -- partly because her brother and his family are visiting and they weren't too excited about seeing any movie in French, let alone High School Musical 3.

The movie was lots of fun; Troy and Gabriella were as cute as ever; Sharpay was her evil-little self; the music was catchy; the choreography was energizing; and the plot was exactly like High School Musical 1 and 2. The last point is critical because it meant that I understood the entire movie even though it was completely in French.

But the most important part is that Patrick and Julia loved it (Patrick still won't admit it yet, but he loved it).
