Movies

It has been snowing like crazy here all day. It has fun and exciting. All of this snow makes me just want to stay inside and read a book. Jacklyn keeps saying, "I wanna build a snowman." So we might build one on Christmas Eve. Jayden and I are wimps and don't want to brave the cold. We have had fun over the weekend watching movies and getting ready for Christmas. We watched Hancock on Saturday night. It was ok. I couldn't figure out why no one was really that thrilled about it because the preview looked really good. Then we saw the movie, and Micah and I knew why. It really wasn't as good as I expected it to be. We also saw The Village last weekend. Absolutely loved it. I also fell in love the soundtrack. It is very pretty, Micah and I were talking about it and it is... Micah used the word intense, I prefer dramatic. Very interesting story, I don't want to say too much because if you decide to see it I will ruin the movie. It compares very well with religion, especially Mormonism, but that is not a story for here. Micah took Jayden out tonight to do some man shopping, and Micah got me the soundtrack for Christmas. He is very nice. I hope everyone has all of their Christmas shopping done, and that no one gets stuck in snow. Micah got stuck in the snow going up to his parent's house today for lunch. That crazy hill.

Oh, I forgot to tell you guys about our ward Christmas party we had last week. Our ward had a fundraiser where we donated our time or talents, and then the money raised went to help and orphanage in... somewhere in Israel. I think? Anyways, it was a lot of fun to see a lot of people giving at this time of year. I felt bad because I didn't know very much about it because we went out of town the week before, so I wish I would have know more so I could have donated something. Oh well, I guess we all do service in different ways. So don't forgot that is what Christmas is about.
