Have you seen Disney’s The Lion King? I am not talking about the older one (though I hope you have seen that one too! SO good!), I am talking about the NEW Disney’s The Lion King! Well, have you?

My hubby and oldest son went to go see it in the summer. They absolutely LOVED it. I mean, who wouldn’t? I heard the best things about it and was so happy when I was actually able to watch it with my youngest two kiddos! Such a fun-loving, emotional, wonderful family movie! Ahhhhh, it was SO good! We sure love Disney Movies!
