Dinner, movie and dancing until the weee hours of the night.......

Sleepovers are so much fun!

Mandy had 3 of her friends spend the night,

we started with a dinner date to El Torito Grill:

(it was their idea to get all dressed up)

When we got home they wanted to watch a movie and they all begged me to watch the "Bratz" movie. I was a little nervous as I have not seen it, the name is not very inviting, and the dolls are ugly. But I caved. And of course I watched it with them just in case we needed to press STOP!

While a bit cheesy, it was actually a cute movie. It was about 4 girls who had been friends since childhood. When they got into high shool they all had different interest (cheerleading, soccer, choir, fashion design) and ended up growing apart. A couple of years later they regroup and realize they miss each other and are all best buds again.

So your asking where does the "Bratz" part come in? Well, let me tell you - there was a popular, rich, spoiled girl who was jealous of their friendship and tried to break them up and was telling everyone that they were brats! Of course in the end good wins over evil and they all live happily ever after......breath..........

We ended up talking about friendship and how important it is to accept each other for who they are and support each other's interest. It was really cute and they got it! (they have been friends since kindergarten). So the cheeseball movie was a success. And the girls memorized one of the dances in the movie and danced for a good hour = tired girls.

(notice that they are all in the air - what talent)

then it was night- night time..........

It's been a long time since I've had dinner, a movie and dancing but I have to say that it was a fun date :} And just for your viewing pleasure or if you would like dance lessons here is video of these cute Bratz....................
