Free Guy Family Movie Night

Posted by Miranda Weldon on

My teenage daughter suggested we watch the movie Free Guy for a movie night. She had seen it in the theatre and thought the whole family would like it. I saw it had a PG-13 rating, and questioned if it would be appropriate for her seven year old sister. She said she didn't remember anything real bad, and that there may have been a few bad words. I had planned to look into the rating before watching it as a family. That very same week, I took my dog to the vet. Our vet is a family friend and had...

Encanto family movie night

Posted by Miranda Weldon on

We needed party food and treats for our family movie night watching Disney’s Encanto. I made Arepas con queso, zucchini Rellenos and tostones with guacamole as entrees. I added Bruno’s vision cupcakes and flower pretzel bites as sweets. For our popcorn I made paper cups that looked like the candle. Hurricane mocktails were the perfect drink!

Princess and the Frog Family Movie Night

My husband was traveling for work to New Orleans, and brought home Beignet mix from Cafe Du Monde. If you have never had a beignet from Cafe Du Monde, you have been missing out! They are incredible!

As soon as I saw the beignet mix, I knew we had to have a Princess and the Frog movie night! My husband didn’t love the suggestion, but agreed to watch if it meant I was making Gumbo and beignets! Of course...

The last movie night we had was Disney’s Enchanted, which my husband called a chick-flick. I promised him the next family movie night would be an action movie. My youngest daughter loves 80s movies like Ghost Busters and the Goonies and enjoyed the Indiana Jones stunt show at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, but had never watched any of the Indiana Jones movies, so I decided we should watch Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Ark!      When planning movie night snacks, I started by thinking of memorable moments from the movie, and knew I needed to do something with the...

Disney’s Enchanted Movie Night

Posted by Miranda Weldon on

 I think Disney’s Enchanted (with Patrick Dempsey, Amy Adams, Susan Sarandon and more) is probably the most under-rated Disney movie of all time! I’ve mentioned it to so many times to friends and family and they have never seen it or heard of it! It’s one of my absolute favorites though! When Disney+ first came out I remember trying to watch it only to realize it wasn’t yet on the platform. I recently read an article that talked about the sequel, Disenchanted, coming to Disney+ later this year. Not only was I super excited for the sequel, but it...
