Tonight the kids and I rented The Smurfs movie from the Red Box and grabbed some appetizers to eat while watching it. The ‘original’ Smurfs were big when I was a kid, so it was interesting to see what a difference 20 years makes.

I was pleasantly surprised by the whole thing. The animation was really cool and the story was fairly interesting. Of course there’s always the appeal of Smurfette!

The kids really liked it too, so much so that I’m afraid I’ll be hearing ‘Smurf’ attached to everything for the next couple days. 

I guess writing about the Smurfs is an indication of how slow this day has been, but it was a fun trip down memory lane and it was cool to see my kids enjoy something so familiar from when I was their age.
