Well Christmas eve is here. We have all our presents, we are ready to go to the crazyness of the family christmas Clothmas party (As Brad's dad calls it due to the large amount of clothes he alwasy gets.) We teach SS this morning but I think we are going to play bible trivia and just have a good time. As everyone is pretty stressed and worn due to the long holiday. Brad and I braved the nicolassville mall on thrusday. that was fun. Then we got the last of our gifts came home, I had my yearly oppointment, then we wrapped presents. Friday we had the gang christmas dinner at Red lobster. SEveral people weren't feeling well and I am going to chalk the complaining up to that.
but everyone seemed to have something to complain about. Oh well. Satudary we went to see the new Rocky movie. I cried through teh whole blasted thing. IT was really good. I really liked it. and I apologize to brad for all the guff I gave him about going to see Rocky 6. But this one was actually better than the others, in my opinion. Well I have to go take a shower and get dressed for church. I will try to take lots of pictures for my dad, I know how picutres are his love language. And keep everyone posted on the christmas festivities. Oh and ...

I had heard from someone else that the new Rocky movie was very good.

I have one more comment about Eragon. Andrew said he didn’t like it because the ending of the movie was completely different from the ending in the book. It’s one thing to take things out to save on time, but to change things completely is another story.

I felt this way when I saw Flowers in the Attic. It’s one of my favorite books, but they butchered the ending in the movie. I don’t understand why they had to do that.

I don't know. I guess it had been so long since I read it that I forgot alot of things. I find that if I know about it I would rather watch the movie frist and then read the book so that I am happy with both.
If you read the book first then you are almost always disappointed iwth something. but if you watch the moive first it is always a pleasent surpirse all the things out fo the book that you did know yet.

Annevsary's and baby firsts

Okay, let see, our 4th annavsary was this week. We have been married four years. It feels a little longer. I guess we have just packed alot into it and that makes it seem longer. I am really very happy/glad, that I married brad. He has been supportive when I have been flipping out. He takes care of me, and needs me, he is calmed by me when he is flipping out, he has created the cutest little bear with me, we have shared laughs, football games, Musicals, movies, TV shows, books, basketball games, tears, hardship, lack of funs... in short, the better and the worse, the richer and the poorer, the sickness and the health, alaughter and the sorrow, I married a very specail man and I am truly blessed because of it. I can't thank God enough that He saved bard for me. As for First, this week the baby slept all night for the first time. We fed her at 9:00 pm, put her down and she doesn't get up til around 7:30. (of course if we get up early and start moving around she wakes up too) but ...

Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Sanity

Okay so this week has been a little wild. Between getting ready for testing at school. Trying to keep students who are ready for summer focused. PMSing, Brad having his huge action research proposal due yesterday and many other little things, I have felt just the slightest bit overwhelmed. I will say that Sanjya finally got voted off American Idol. He couldn't sing, coldn't dance and there and there was really no reason he made it this far above and beyond that people wanted to see what crazy thing he would do each week. Well finally they got it through their heads that he coudln't sing and sent him packing, me and Simon Cowl were thrilled. Please continue to pray for brad, his feet and shins are still bothering him. wE think it is shin splints but we are not sure. He is giving them the 2-4 week rest period that shin splints need and if they don't get better he will go to the dr. as I mentioned above, testing starts next week, here in teh state of Kentucky, and th...
