It’s so wonderful to get a surprise blessing. It doesn’t happen often, but sometimes when you least expect it, a little something special comes your way.
On Tuesday I got an email from the radio station 95.5 The Fish that I won tickets to a screening of Frozen II. We got to go that night before it opened to the public.
You may wonder why I entered a contest to win tickets to Frozen at my age. The answer is simple. Grandkids! I have two granddaughters, ages 2 and 4. They are both as obsessed with the first Frozen movie as any other little girls. They would certainly love to see the sequel.
My husband and I got to treat my daughter, son-in-law and two granddaughters to the movie and they treated us to movie snacks. It was perfect! We all got to watch the girls as they experienced their first movie at a theater. It was adorable watching the oldest sit on the edge of her seat most of the movie, totally glued to the screen. It kept the attention of the youngest one too! I feel blessed to have won these tickets, but even more blessed to be there to watch their reactions.
Do you remember – what was your first movie at a theater?
First movie in the theatre, I was eight years old, it was Jaws. My brother took me probably so my parents could wrap Christmas presents.
Wow, Jaws at 8?! I don’t think I’d ever go in the water if I’d seen that movie at that age! Lol
