I have really been the worst blogger lately. Things have finally started settling down from the holidays but it takes awhile to get back in the swing of things. Does anyone else feel like the holidays zapped their energy??
It has been so cold in Tennessee lately. I know it hasn't been Utah or Idaho cold but cold for us and I hardly ever get cold! The other night we even got snow and Derek was so excited he had to make a snowman! I'm glad he did because by mid morning the next day it was melted!
Last week I got to go on another field trip with Derek to see Juno B. Jones the musical. It was interesting to say the least but the kids loved it and I was so happy to be with him. It makes me sad to think in a couple of years he probably won't even want me to come anywhere close to his school but for now he just gets so excited! This is his little friend Alex. Derek tells me she loves boy things. I guess so because she only invited Derek and one other boy to her birthday party!
Kids say the funniest things. The other day Derek asked Drew why dads had the Priesthood and moms don't? Drew tried to give a simple explanation. He said well moms do other things. Derek thought for a minute and then said like blogging and shopping? Gotta love 'em!
Thanks to Rochelle I remembered to watch Masterpiece Theater last night. They are airing the complete Jane Austen Collection. Next Sunday they will be airing Northanger Abbey . This week they began with Persuasion. It was amazing. I loved it! It was so nice to watch an enjoyable romantic clean movie! Jane Austen was such an amazing author!
Happy New Year Everyone! We had a great time last night. We went out with some friends to Texas Roadhouse. It was yummy! Everything was so crowded I couldn't believe it. Then we went and saw this amazing, funny, great movie called Juno. I like to call this type of movie a dramady. I really loved it! It was so well written and acted! A rare thing for Hollywood these days! The main actress Ellen Page is amazing! She got a nomination for a Golden Globe and I sure hope she gets an Oscar nod!
What fun thing did you do to bring in the New Years?
