It really has. I know we haven't had a whole lot going on but, WOW, it really has been a long time.
Well, the Harry Potter movie we went and saw on Wednesday was AMAZING. Yeah, the cut out quite a bit, but it still followed the book enough to make sense. I loved it and so did Karl, minus the whole ending, which anyone who has read the books knows it's true to the book.
Us before the movie - we are stoked!
The movie billboard. Yeah for Harry Potter!
Friday we went to another movie, yeah we've been bored. :) Well, Thursday night we decided to watch the first Transformers and after watching Karl looked over at me and asked if we could go and watch the second one the next day. I told him we would see, well, as you can tell, we did go and see it Friday afternoon. It wasn't that great, really. Yeah, the story line was good but whoever wrote the script for that movie should be ashamed of themselves. The dialog was horrible. There were cuss words everywhere, and not in the military scenes where you would think they would be. And then, to top it off, there was a lot of adult innuendo and obvious adult "humor" that I found not funny at all. All in all, I would not recommend it to anyone. And if they do make a third one, like Karl thinks they will, you can count me out.
And actually before going to the movies, Karl and I were able to go to the Library, get library cards, and checked out Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets to read. We are trying to read the whole series before the last two movies come out. We read the first one while on our honeymoon. :) So, after getting home from the movies we figured out that we could download books from the library for 2 weeks at a time and listen to them. So, that's what we did. We are so excited about them. :)
Later Friday night, we headed up to Shannon and stayed talking to Sharon and Stephanie until 3 in the morning. Yeah . . . I know, but we always have such a good time, we can't pull ourselves away. So needless to say, when we got home we were tired.
And did I mention that Karl had to work the next morning? And how he woke up at 6:40 and not 5:45 like he usually does? It was ok though and it all worked out but it was still really scary. Then he came home and we slept in til about 1ish. Yeah, talk about lazy. Then we got ready and drove out to Mertzon for Madelynn's First Birthday Party. She got a lot of good things and was just adorable eating her cake. :)
Random shot of us at the party.
Yummy cake! :)
Here's us with the birthday girl!
Sherri, Sharon's sister, stayed the night with us Saturday night and her, Sharon, and Shirley came over for about an hour and a half and we talked, talked, and talked. Then, after Sharon and Shirley left, we talked and talked with Sherri. :)
Sunday was a pretty lazy day, really. We played Phase Ten Dice and watched Happy Feet and Monsters Inc.. I like Sundays, although I always feel like I should be doing something productive, I know that I should be resting. So that's what we did. :)
Last night I didn't feel too well and right now I'm still not feeling that well either. So I'm waiting for Karl to come home for lunch to come and check on me and then after he gets home from work, he's planning on mowing the lawn, then we'll hopefully head on over and see PawPaw since he's home now. We're excited!
We still haven't heard anything about jobs yet, so keep praying. I did find out that this week they will start calling teachers for interviews so I'm just praying that they call me.
Hope you have a great week!
