1st movie in the Movie theater for Sarah & Sean

Today for Father's day, the kids and I took Mark to see Kung Foo Panda 2 since we all enjoyed the first Kung Foo Panda. There was a theater in Cannes that showed it in English with French subtitles. This is the first time the kids have had an interest in going to the theater for a movie. They both really enjoyed it! Sean is already wanting to see Cars 2 when it comes out in the theater!
