Wall-E!!

As you are all well aware, Ly has a slight obsession with Wall-E and has been dreaming of owning a dancing wall-e toy for months. He dances. He talks. He is a source of endless laughs. Who in their right mind wouldn't want to own one? Apparently most people felt this way, because back in December Target on both coasts sold out and Ly's hopes of owning one for herself were washed down the drain. As Christmas came and went without a dancing wall-e, she felt that she might have to learn to live without one. What a sad life.

However, the universe felt otherwise.

Last night, Alan and Ly went on a late night excursion to Target and while aimlessly walking down every aisle, Ly discovered the last dancing wall-e toy for a mere 9 dollars!!! What a fantastic deal! She begged, pleaded and gave puppy dog eyes until Alan bought it for her (not really, he put it in the cart without having to be asked) and a few minutes later she was a proud owner of a dancing Wall-E.

Ly discovered this video to show you how cool Wall-E is...and also because it brings back some crazy memories - right Lil?



Someday she'll actually post pictures of her bonding with Wall-E. He has yet to leave her side since he was purchased last night, and, is, in fact sitting next to the keyboard as we speak (type?)

Wall-E Movie Night

The Disney movie Wall-E came out on video yesterday...something that both Ly and Alan have been eagerly anticipating for months. When the movie first came out in theaters, we saw it multiple times. In fact for weeks after seeing, Ly was known to randomly burst out in sayings such as "wallleeee" "evvveeeeaaa" "mo." and "ta-daaaa!" Alan even joined in the fun from time to time.

And despite the fact that Ly is 24 years old, she desperately wants the dancing Wall-e toy she discovered at Target. Wall-e sings and dances to whatever song is playing in your ipod and says all sorts of quotes from the movie. Oh to be a kid again. =)

Anyway last night, the Lee family rented Wall-E from the local redbox (a rather brilliant idea where people can rent any new release for $1) and enjoyed an evening full of Disney fun. We even made a special popcorn treat, which was full of peanut butter and chocolate goodness. If you're interested in how we made it, let us know and we'll put up the instructions.

Needless to say, Wall-E is definitely one for the DVD Library.
