Photo Scavenger Hunt

I haven't forgotten about this, time has just gotten away from me. Postpone a week, if you have any more ideas get them up here, then I will post the list sometime within the week.

Family Foto Fscavenger Fhunt

So I'm a big dork and came up with what I thought was a brilliant idea. I think we should have a blog photo scavenger hunt. For the next week think of 3-5 things to add to the list and put them in the comments. Next Monday I'll compile some set number of them (10?20?), then we will have a week to get pictures of ourselves taken with the items on the list and post them back here on the blog. Who up for that?

Christmas already

Hi everyone! So, I guess its about time to start thinking about Christmas. Although, I know Leah is already on it as she bought Scott his present months ago.

Mom and I were talking last night and we thought it might be a good idea for everyone to post a few ideas for gifts. I think last year turned out great - should we stick to $20 or $25 (?) per person?

I'm assuming everyone can be here for Christmas Eve again. It was way too much fun to miss anyway.

Ok, see ya in the comments!

AZ & Lily!

I was in Phoenix for Stacey and Matt's wedding this past weekend. I had some pool time and lots of fun with Amy and her family (I'm an honorary Opahle now) and the wedding was beautiful and a really really wonderful time.



Here's Stacey with Mom's purse that she borrowed for "something old". Stacey is the 3rd of my 4 friends who have married this year to borrow the purse. Mom, this was your great aunt's purse, right?



Palm tree and the sunset from the terrace.



Matt & Stacey. I don't have many pictures since everyone else was going wild with their camera and I'll be getting those sooner or later. This is right where the ceremony happened. It was beautiful and of course pictures don't do scenery justice anyway. The restaurant was on the top of a cliff overlooking Phoenix.



Amy and Becky before the wedding on the terrace. I have no idea how to straighten this picture out.



And for the finale.... We got a kitten!! Her name is Lily and she's part siamese. She was born on my birthday! Its fate! She's really cute and funny but still being a little shy. I hope she's running around and not such a scaredy kitten whenI get home tonight. Mom and Tom, you'll have to stop by to see her this week!

Movies

I saw two really great movies this weekend and I have to share- and you will soon see I am not a writer, nor try to be. Although I do sometimes use the word "nor."

Reign Over Me with Adam Sandler and some other cool dudios was so so great. It was sad, real and had redemption. I loved it. It was rated R for language because the F word was used probably about 10 times. I usually don't like to watch rated R movies, but this one was f-ing awesome.

Music and Lyrics with Drew Barrymore and British sappy guy in all the romances... what's his name? Bridget Jones... You know. This movie was also great. It made fun of the 80's a lot, which I can always appreciate. And it was a feel-good movie. I wish Eric would have watched it with me so that we could have laughed together but he is at a monster-truck rally tonight. However, I actually had a harder time watching this PG-13 movie than Reign Over Me. It had a lot of scantily-clad booty shaking and orgasmic noises. It made me a little uncomfortable. So, actually, I'm glad Eric is watching the school buses get smashed into pieces.

I do realize that these movies have been out for a while, so many of you have already seen them. In that case, just let me know if you f-ing agree with me.

Happy Birthday Scott!

Ultimate Kickball Champion

Our kickball team won our division! We are going to the regional tournament on October 27 (I know... it's Isaac's birthday). I am super bad at kicking and get out every time. But, I'm a rockstar outfielder. I made a double play this week by catching the ball and tagging second base because the runner didn't tag up. It was awesome.
