Pratt's "The Lorax" Earth Day Event

On Saturday, Pratt (the company Jonas works for) hosted an Earth Day event.  For those of you that don't know, Pratt is a 100% recycled paper mill.  We (at Pratt Industries) save roughly 300,000 trees every single day, by using recycled goods as opposed to chopping down fresh trees.  We are all very eco-friendly and very conscientious about our one and only home, Earth.  

In an effort to imprint our beliefs onto our children, Pratt hosted an Earth Day event on Saturday. We all went to see Dr. Seuss's movie "The Lorax."  It is SUCH a cute movie, and brought most of us to tears.  It is a must see for people of all ages.  It is similar (in belief) to the movie "Wall-E", which is also a very cute movie. 

Keegan and I were able to go to this event, while Lila stayed at home with our babysitter.  It was Keegan's first movie in the theater! He did so well.  The 3D part was, at times, a bit scary for him - I caught him putting the glasses on his head, then back over his eyes, and back up to his head, several times throughout.  I was designated as the photographer for the event - however, I am not satisfied with the pictures I got.  The last three pictures will be used for the article to be written about Pratt and this event, submitted to Pratt's newsletter, the mayor's office, and several other news stations and newspapers.

 At the end of the movie, we all received trees to take home with us and plant, as well as information about Pratt and recycling.  What a great way to give back to our Mother Earth!
