Really! I had seen clips when it was on at school or at someone’s house but I’ve never really just sat down and watched the movie from beginning to end…until tonight. We were looking for a movie that Noah might enjoy too (and he did – he danced his tush off whenever the girls were singing) and saw that Annie was on Netflix’s Watch Instantly.

I loved it. I mean sure, there are plot holes and it just kind of resolves itself suddenly but that’s not really what the movie is about, is it? It’s an adorable, heart-warming musical made for the family…and set in one of my favorite time periods of American history, to boot.

What made it even better was that once Noah had his fill of cute girls and music (hahahaha), he went to sleep, so Joshua and I got to watch it all snuggled up. That’s a rarity for us, now that Noah is a full blown toddler that likes to get into everything. It was pleasant, in that “I’m so content I could purr like a kitten” way. *sighs happily*
