Start the Summer With Meatballs

With the end of the school year fast approaching I feel like I should let you guys in on a little secret of mine. That's right I'm spilling my guts so lean in close and cover the screen from passer byers.  *whispers* I have a tradition, but don't tell anyone okay?

:) Ha-ha for serious now, at the end of every school year for as far back as I can remember my family and I sit back and watch a movie. Not any movie mind you, a movies that is very special to our hearts.

This particular movie is about summer camp. Camp North Star. WARNING this is an older movie (which of course makes it better) so be on the look out for all the oldie stuff, okay? There will be plenty.

The movie follows a group of CIT's (councilors in training), a young boy who doesn't want to be at camp, and the head councilor, Tripper. Tripper is played by Bill Murry, so you know this movie is going to be a side splitter!

I want to point out that I have seen this movie well over 30 times so I watch it more for the funny things in the background.  It's filmed at a real summer camp, they have real life KIDS playing the KIDS. So things happen that might not have been written in the script.

The movie is funny and inspirational and I honestly count think of a better way to start my summer out. Without this movie my summer wouldn't even be able to officially begin.

You guys should check it out! There is comedy, romance, and inspiration all wrapped up in this summer camp experience!

Join the tradition, watch on!

OH! By the way the movie is called Meatballs :)
