So, I had a FUN night last night.  Some women in the ward/church here got together and went to the movie theater to watch “Momma Mia” featuring Meryl Streep.  There was about 25 of us together with most of the women around my mom’s age or older…so I was one of the young ones!  We only had to pay 2.75 GBP since we were a big group and one of the managers of the movie theater was in our group.  I had never seen the movie before, but it was a musical and I LOVE musicals.  We attended the Momma Mia sing-a-long so the words were on the screen for all to sing.  It was a lot of fun singing to ABBA music…and when the song “Dancing Queen” was played we all got up and danced!  I know that my sisters would have had a great time there with me.

As far as the movie went…it was okay.  In Scotland it was rated as PG.  However in the states it is PG-13 which is more apporpriate.  The language was clean, but there were a couple of quick scene shots that I didn’t care for and they could have done away with one whole song “Does your mother know.”  Then it would have passed the “Tia Standard.”  (remember I live in my little bubble that I created for Kalani and I where we are not exposed to many things)  So, I am NOT going to recommend you go out and watch this movie…especially if you live in a similar bubble that I live in.  However I am planning on buying the soundtrack _{(at least some of the songs}) and I know that many of my siblings would LOVE to watch this movie, learn the songs and the dance steps.
