Lights! Camera! Action!
By Tara Zandra | January 21, 2007
The party is done It went off beautifully and everyone seemed to have a grand time. It was a movie theme, so everyone started off with a walk up the red carpet with Chris acting as papparazzi. Once inside, we had them vote on the movie choices to decide which one would be playing at the ANC Theatre. Next was a visit to the concession stand (aka, our kitchen counter) where they got popcorn with various flavored shakers to try, candy and beverage. We had cups and popcorn boxes just like the theatre We then placed them in the theatre (living room) which we had completely curtained off to block light and we had a movie poster slide show on the TV.
Once everyone was seated and ready, we started the main feature which was “Herbie Fully Loaded.” The kids were laughing, chanting and cheering so apparently they were pleased with their decision. After the movie we lit the candle on Tabitha’s cookie cake and sang to her. Everyone then had their cookie and then Tabitha opened presents of which she received loads of lovely stuff that she loves. Then we gave everyone a microwave popcorn packet with a “Thank You for coming to Tabitha’s 8th Birthday” label on it and off they went.
Now we rest until next year I also want to publicly thank my friend J, because she did so much of the work with kid wrangling and working the concession stand. She was a big help and I’m glad she was here.

It is wrong that when I read “Lights! Camera! Action!” I want to say “Wig-gles!” ?
