We've watched the whole series probably four times now. For her birthday party on Saturday, guess what the theme was? AND I drew Toothless masks for the kids to decorate and then we had dragon races at the end of the party.

I listen to the soundtrack while writing. :-) The "Romantic Flight" scene makes me cry--the swell of the music, the bit where Astrid leans into Hiccup and smiles, the shot of Toothless flying above the skyline of Berk...so, so good.<br /><br />I really should see the sequel again.

I won't say that the second movie is better, but it's pretty incredible. I cry so much in both. And I was basically in tears throughout the entire trailer for the third one, so yeah.

My 6-year-old lost her second front top tooth today, so she has a giant gap in her mouth right now, and my other two kids keep calling her Toothless. So she started calling my 10-year-old Hiccup, which is pretty perfect cuz he totally looks and acts like Hiccup would at age 10.Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-73390262754811358792018-07-03T20:57:09.666-04:002018-07-03T20:57:09.666-04:00DKoren, I'll try to have a copy of #2 by next ...DKoren, I'll try to have a copy of #2 by next week, will that work? :-DHamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-78400551643071229592018-07-03T12:27:58.915-04:002018-07-03T12:27:58.915-04:00I loved it, mostly because of Hiccup.

I wasn't sure two of my kids would like it, just because Hiccup does get in trouble sometimes, and those two don't always like stories where kids get in trouble, but they ended up loving it.Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-75388576999128396522018-07-02T18:44:37.971-04:002018-07-02T18:44:37.971-04:00It is a pretty fun movie!
