The best part of the movie is what has happened every night since we watched it. The whole family gathers together in my bed and we all take turns telling wild, crazy bedtime stories. It is so awesome. The kids imaginations simply amaze me.
We have been royalty in castles,
soldiers in the civil war,
pioneers in the Midwest, 
cowboys in the wild west,
storm troopers 
and have even fought off angry dinosaurs.
I have even taken the time to write down some of these stories in hopes of sharing them with my children when they are grown and maybe even my own grandchildren.

Coming by for VGNO---we had been wanting to see this also!! I'm glad it looks good...I hadn't heard anything about it!
You sold me...I want that movie!
How sweet that you guys make up stories!
I haven't seen this movie but I love Adam Sandler, I love him so much I even invited him to my HS graduation and then later on to my wedding. Seriously. He didn't come though, wonder why.
I loved that movie. I miss the days when my son was young enough to crawl in bed with me.
Have a great 4th.
Happy VGNO!
What a great post. My crew are also big fans of Bedtime Stories. I love that you are writing down these stories for your children.
Have a great VGNO.
What a great idea. I will have to rent this movie. Happy VGNO.
I need to rent this. My youngest has asked about it.
How great that it has been the catalyst for your family to tell stories.
Loved your post!
Happy VGNO!

What a wonderful family tradition you stumbled onto! After you get a nice collection, you should use a self-publishing site like lulu.com to create a book of your family's stories... Christmas gifts?
Happy VGNO!
That was a great movie! My kids loved it. And how awesome that your kids are getting into it by telling stories! Fun memories.
