Legally Blonde

Wednesday, August 15th, 2007

Ok, here’s some more silliness… this cracks me up. One of my favorite movies is now a musical. There’s a clip on Amazon. It looks like fun 🙂

Legally Blonde the Musical

The movies…

Saturday, May 19th, 2007

We went to see Spiderman 3 today!Cost of tickets: $35
Popcorn and drinks: $15
Cost of totebag, notepad, crayons, and stickers from Starbucks to entertain Alyson for the second half of the movie: $15

It was fun, but I didn’t see most of the movie. Bill and the boys report that it was a good movie. Alyson and I spent the last have coloring and window shopping. I must say, though, that the hour that she DID sit was great. I forsee being able to go to movies with her soon 🙂

Narnia

Saturday, December 10th, 2005

Yesterday was Brandon’s 4th birthday. His party was last week, but we wanted to do something special for him, so we took him to the Chronicles of Narnia movie on opening day. It was a great movie. I highly recommend seeing it (although I don’t think it absolutely has to be seen in the theater). Brandon was a little bit bored and distracted. He really wanted to go play the games in the lobby, so he kept asking if the movie was over yet. We also let him pick dinner, so we picked up his favorite McDonalds dinner on the way home :-)

Today the kids are getting ready for tomorrow night’s Christmas program. Alyson and I just went and spent $100 on clothes for her (yikes). At least I can finally clean out some of the clothes in her dresser that she keeps wearing every week even though she’s getting too big. She’s really going to need more clothes in the summer – if only we could move her birthday LOL. I would have bought her more 18 months clothes today, but they were all long sleeves and fleece. I also picked up a set of gloves, hat, and scarf for her stocking… she keeps stealing mine, so I don’t think it’ll matter that they’re a little big for her :-)

Christian got to go on a field trip to see a play about the elves and the shoemaker (whatever that is about LOL). He was upset about it because he missed two recesses. I also sent him with money for the bookfair this last week and he forgot every day to use it. I guess we should have gone on parent night afterall. Oh, well, he has lots of books and I’m sure there will be another bookfair in the spring.

Some good news, I’ve been getting more calls and emails than I ever expected thanks to my listing on bookkeepinghelp.com. I have another meeting with a potential client Monday night (and this is after I met witih 2 new clients less than a month ago). I’m excited for what January will bring!

October already?!?

I don’t know where the last few weeks went.

Good news:

Alyson is starting to stand on her own for a few seconds at a time. She gives kisses 🙂 She eats almost only finger food.

Heartbreaking news:

Poor Christian and his best friend since Kindergarten Gabe had a falling out yesterday. He was really upset. Today they’re fine again LOL. But the poor kid yesterday afternoon wrote some sort of flame mail to Gabe and wanted to mail it.

Must see:

GO SEE SERENITY! Bill and I went and saw the movie Serenity on opening night last Friday. I laughed, I cried. It was a great movie. We both want to see it again. PLEASE go see it, and go see it soon! I want more people to talk about it with 🙂

More good news:

I got a call on Sunday from Brandon’s Sunday School teacher (I stayed home sick – yuck). She was just calling to tell me what a delight he was in class. He remembered his entire verse (God is patient, and he wants everyone to repent.) He remembered it all except for the 2 Peter 3:9 part. It was so nice to hear. Brandon can be such an uncontrollable powerhouse of energy, it’s nice to know he does well in class.

Silly kid:

Christian’s first ASB meeting was last week. It is held during lunch recess. He FORGOT to go at first. He said he RAN and he missed a lot, but he did get a treat. LOL.
