Cars 2

My favorite little man is totally into anything Cars. Not just the movie but anything with wheels and he will love it. But he also LOVES the movie and the characters. When I was home in June my mom bought Sawyer some of the cars from the new movie. Well Cars 2 came out the day after we left the states so we didn't get to take Sawyer to see it. For some odd reason the movie theatres in Thailand didn't release Cars 2 until today....yes 3 months later. Well yesterday we told Sawyer we were finally going to see the new cars movie and he was over the top excited about it. My mom and dad got him a Finn McMissile and a Lightning  McQueen remote control cars. He carried them around all day long and they also accompanied him to bed. (he now refers to them as big McMissile and big Lightning). It was so cute all day he kept saying "tomorrow I'm going to see cars 2" over and over. He kept telling us all the characters that were in the movie. It's amazing how he has been asking and waiting and asking and asking to see Cars 2 and the day was finally going to arrive and he understood "tomorrow".
First thing this morning he popped his little head up and said "see Cars 2 today".

Well....it's been raining and raining here and the Ping River has overflowed and many parts of town including roads and homes are flooded. Well my husband was determined to keep his promise to his son and we set out to brave the roads. It took us an hour to get to the mall and the other side of the road (the one to get home) was totally flooded. We did make it in one piece.
We went to get our tickets and they only had the regular version playing in Thai so we had to see the 3D version. I wasn't thrilled with that and they wouldn't give Sawyer his own glasses because he was free and they said only paying costumers get the glasses. There were only 6 other people in the theater with us and I thought it was crazy they wouldn't give us the glasses but Sawyer wouldn't really keep them on anyway when I gave him mine so it didn't really matter. The movie itself was pretty cute and Sawyer enjoyed it of course. It was a little hard as some parts because of the 3D without the glasses it got blurry but he got to see most of it. I was kind of glad he had to wait so long to see it. He knew who all the characters where (thanks mom for the cars) so when they were onscreen he would yell out the names.

What a fun day! It took us an hour to get home and we had to try 3 different ways until we found a road that was open. When we got in the car Sawyer actually said "Thank you daddy for taking to see Disney's Pixar Cars 2" hahaha I love having the greatest family it was a wonderful fun day with my boys!
