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!

Indiana Jones Family Movie Night

Posted by Miranda Weldon on

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...

Posted by Miranda Weldon on

I wanted to make cute juices for the St.Patrick’s Day snack in my daughter’s class. I found these cute Pinch Punch Tags and planned to hang them on Kool-Aid Jammer bottles, but none of the stores in my area had green in stock. I decided to just buy regular juice boxes instead, but I still wanted to use the round Pinch Punch Tags I had printed before I realized I couldn’t find green bottles. Juice boxes with their brand name/pictures/nutritional facts didn’t really scream St.Patrick’s Day to me, so I gave them a quick makeover. First I removed each straw that was...

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Family Movie Night

Posted by Miranda Weldon on

As I shared already, in attempt to spend more family time together before my oldest daughter goes to college in a year and a half, I’m challenging myself to do at least 2 family movie nights per month complete with themed snacks. It was time to pick our first movie, I wanted a movie I hadn’t seen yet, but knew enough about to come up with some themed snacks. I was trying to think of some re-makes or sequels I hadn’t yet watched. It then dawned on me that I had never watched the 2014 Ninja Turtles movie (with Megan Fox)....
