This past weekend if you follow along on my Instagram you would’ve seen some of the fun adventures my girls and I got into.  As some of you may know my girls are in a kids club called Kidgits at their local mall that has different kid’s activities throughout the year for only $5 a year.  

I really love this program because there is different stuff for kids to do each month and for only $5 a year per child is such a great deal!  Last weekend activity was Breakfast with the Easter Bunny which the girls got breakfast like an egg sandwich, muffins, and juice for free.  For the parents they had to pay $5 and it included coffee for them but I opted to go to Starbucks to get my Green Tea Frappuccino.

The girls and I enjoyed our meals; they did some arts and crafts, and listened to a lady reading Easter Bunny stories.  

Since my girls are getting older and suspecting if the Easter bunny is even real, I’m not for sure how long we will be attending this event.  They’ll probably start thinking it is uncool, but hey I enjoy it and love seeing all the precious smiles on children’s faces.

We were press for time because we had advance screening tickets to see the computer-animated movie Home starring Rihanna, Jim Parsons, Steve Martin, and Jennifer Lopez.  Home will be playing in theaters March 27th.

Are you wondering how I got to see this movie 2 weeks before release?  Now this wasn’t a blogger invite, I use a website called Gofobo.com, a site to sign up to see advance movie screenings in your local area for free. 

When we arrived at the movies I was shocked to see how many people uses this website to see advance screenings and the theater was completely full!  Security was tight to make sure there weren’t any illegal recordings during the movie.  You’re not allowed to have your cell phone out at all while the movie is playing.  Good thing they weren't checking bags and purses because I had my Nikon camera with me and I didn't want them to think I was there to snap photos from the movie or record it.

I won’t spoil the movie for you but the movie was really good and kept my focus the whole time.  I also found myself tearing up towards the end so keep a tissue handy.  The movie has a great plot about  friendship.  

I thought Rihanna did a great job playing her character.  It is great seeing her letting her inner child out instead of the raunchy stuff we normally see from her.  Looks like her year is off to a great start because now she is in a movie, on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar US and China magazine, also on the Cover of W Korea, plus she is in the hit song Four FiveSeconds with Kayne West and Paul McCartney.  She is really doing her thang!

After the movie, the girls and I did some spring clothes shopping since the weather in Atlanta has been warm lately and before our move to our new house I’ve gotten rid of almost all their spring and summer clothes from last year.  I went to The Children’s Place for their clothes since that store always has great deals going on and plus I came prepared with a 20% off coupon along with a $20 rewards certificate I’ve earned through their rewards point program.  

I did a little shopping for myself as well at Old Navy but didn’t do very well with savings since I didn’t have any coupons.

Have you started your spring clothes shopping yet?
