#Smurfs2 @SocialSmurf
Every time I hear the word Smurf, I can’t help but smile. Since being a long time fan of the little blue sweethearts I can’t help but wonder what they will be up to next. It gives me happiness to be able to share my Smurf love with my children. We were thrilled to be invited to the NYC Blue Carpet Screening Premiere of The Smurfs 2 at the Lighthouse Theater this past weekend. The movie was simply adorable. If you have children under three it may be a bit scary, but that would be up to you. There are so many laughable moments, even the adults were breaking out into some belly-laughing moments.

The Blue Carpet Screening event was action packed with the Smurfs on hand to greet both children and adults. The photo booth where you could get your picture as a Smurf kept everyone smiling and no one complained as they filled up on popcorn and treats. Not to mention that the theater was celeb packed. Hank Azaria (Gargamel) was in the mix with his wife an son. They were so adorable with Papa Smurf! Christina Ricci was there, beautiful as ever and very sweet to chat with. There were too many others in the Blue Carpet crowd to even count including Anthony Edwards and Fatima Ptacek(voice of Dora). Everyone was there to watch the movie and mixed and mingled with anyone who wanted to chat!

The sequel to Sony’s animated family comedy, The Smurfs, has the evil wizard Gargamel who creates a couple of mischievous Smurf-like creatures called the Naughties. He hopes they will let him harness the all-powerful, magical Smurf-essence by revealing the secret formula that Smurfette was given in confidence by Papa Smurf. He discovers that only a real Smurf can give him what he wants, and only a secret spell that Smurfette knows can turn the Naughties into real Smurfs. This is when Gargamel kidnaps Smurfette and brings her to Paris, where he has been winning the adoration of millions as the world¹s greatest sorcerer. It’s up to Papa, Clumsy, Grouchy, and Vanity to return to our world, reunite with their human friends Patrick and Grace Winslow, and rescue her! Will Smurfette, who has always felt different from the other Smurfs, find a new connection with the Naughties Vexy and Hackus or will the Smurfs convince her that their love for her is True Blue?
