This past Saturday, we finally did something we have been talking about doing for around a year-we went to the Drive-In Theater near Long Prairie. It was amazing! It almost felt like we were back in time and things were simple again.
As we drove up, we were greeted by this cute, vintage sign. We lucked out to see a double feature including one kid's movie. We arrived a few minutes before the gates opened and were third in line.
They had a concession building with all sorts of goodies. The boys loved the buttered popcorn!
Here we are cuddled up on our sleeping bag on the lawn waiting for dusk. We picked the weekend with the longest days, but it was still so fun just being out and enjoying a night with family and friends. And since we were there early, we got front row parking which had a huge lawn in front of it where the kids played soccer, football, tag and more!
These are our friends that invited us to go with. Hunter met their son last year in preschool and we have kept in touch ever since! They are great buddies.
How cool is this old speaker? And yes, this is how you hear the movie!
The big screen outdoors. If you have never gone to a drive-in, you need to put it on your list to do! We lucked out with a beautiful evening with little bugs, no wind and comfortable temperatures.
I know this is a little blurry, but it gives you an idea of what it looked like.
