The kids had movie night at school tonight. Always a good time! They usually play two movies, one on the big screen in the gym and one on a smaller screen in the music room. Generally one aimed at the older kids and one at the younger kids, but the kids can go to either movie. Tonight it was Minions on the big screen and Home in the music room. Both fun movies!

They pause the movie in the middle for intermission and all the kids head to the cafeteria for snacks. For tonight I made a big batch of M&M cookies with extra M&Ms! (I had a lot left over from Christmas!) I was standing behind the snack table handing out treats as the kids came through. One of Lex’s classmates came up, looked at the table full of baked goods, and asked which ones I made. He said he always loves the things I bake and said he always loves it when Lex brings treats to school because I bake such yummy things. Another classmate was by his side and threw in a comment about how much he loved the Lego cake I made for Lex’s birthday party. Kid one told kid two, “pick those cookies (pointing at the M&M ones I brought), they will be great, I promise!” That made me feel pretty awesome! :)
