Life is as loveable as always. Garen and I have been working and doing the same ol' stuff. Garen has been making trips out of town for interviews and we've been bowling and watching movies, sledding and skiing, swimming and ball game watching, eating and enjoying, laughing and playing games, making bows and buying fish.... you know, just doing our things.
Here are the few pictures we've taken of this fun...
Bowling with some friends.

Watching TANGLED after bowling (we did all of this for $6 each).

On the ski lift.

We tried to get a cute picture of her in this Sunday dress before she grows out of it. This wasn't the best picture so we tried again and got...

This and...

This. What a sweet girl.

Trying to feed a baby and bake bows at the same time. haha.

Making bows with a bunch of fun girlies! I first learned and have been doing this fun creating with Audrey Fuller and some other friends. She is super good at stuff like this. Then we needed to make our matching flowers for Kyly's wedding, so the sisters-in-law and I got a little bit into making some cute flowers and bows too. This is a super fun and girly hobbie. I just wish I actually did my hair sometimes!


The collection of flowers I have built (some for Lainee's hair-hehe- and some for mine).

Who knows if I'll ever wear them all?
They're cute though, right?!

This is the dress I made that Lainee will wear to her uncle's wedding.
It matches the skirts that we girls will be wearing.

Tomato Soup on the Wall

...and the chair and the blinds and the floor
and it wasn't the child...
it was all me. oops. =S

Movie Ratings- according to me...

We love to watch movies. At home on Netflix or from Red Box. Cheap theater. At friends' houses. Whatever.
Here are some we've watched recently.

On a scale of 1-10.
1= wow I never want to see that again.
5= not a complete waste of time but I won't buy it.
10= love it. everyone should watch. I will someday own 3 copies of it.

Harry Potter 7, 1st half~ 8.5
#6 was definitely better but of course we have to remember this was only the 1st half of what is probably something terrifyingly terrific!
Inception~ 9
Great movie. Makes you think and whoever came up with the story line is a freaking genious! Everyone said it was super confusing so I went into it prepared to keep really really close attention. I did. And I was not confused one bit. Yay me!
Despicable Me~ 9
Pretty much loved this one. So cute. I even choked up at the end. Great one!
The Town(edited version)~ 3
Entertaining for a one-timer but didn't seem to have any real point. I like big awesome endings (happy or not).
Revenge of the Bridesmaids~ 6
Cute little ABC family chick flic that I watched by myself one day while Lainee was napping.
A-Team~ 5
Maybe I was too busy taking care of my kid while it was playing, but this one just didn't hold my attention at all. Nothing out of the ordinary compared to every other movie like it lately.
Tangled~ 10.5
Enough said.
