Some Pictures

I forgot to post these. I took them a few weeks ago when we got a whole lot of snow. I had to shovel the driveway twice, really three times, that day. It was impossible to drive anywhere and school was canceled for all.

I made the kids go outside and enjoy it some. I thought for sure that they’d enjoy it, because I know I always did. I remember getting bundled up with gloves, scarfs, hats, and whatever else just to go outside and enjoy the ground being covered in snow. We would make snow angels and snowmen. We would throw snowballs at each other. Those were fun times.

Movie

Kristy and I took the kids to see Coraline. It was actually Kristy who got the whole thing going and I just kind of tagged along. I have to say that it’s been hard for me to get motivated to do things on the weekend when I’ve often been staying up till the late hours of the night to get homework done.

The projection was messed up, so the screen was set about a foot (I’m really just making that measurement up since I have no idea of the actual size of the screen or anything) too low and even after I complained about it the matter was not resolved. This became really obvious, because at one point during the movie something is written at the bottom of the screen and we could not see it. We got three free tickets because of it, and that is good enough for me. The movie was still enjoyable and the children seemed to enjoy it a great deal.
