Anchorage

Chris had to take his sister into Anchorage on Saturday, so we spent the day driving around. We saw his old house, visited his grandma, ate at Ding How, and walked around New Sagaya. We were sitting in the theater to see Step Up 2, but decided that we wouldn't have time. So we got our money back and left. It was a fun day.

We thought this car looked funky.

The Martian Child

I rented Martian Child today, and I have to say that I love this movie! It's touching, funny, and it has two of my favorite people...John Cusack and Joan Cusack. There is a scene in the movie that I especially liked. This kid thinks he's from Mars and John Cusack (who adopts him) is trying to get him to be more normal. This is what he says...


"Right now, you and me, here, put together entirely from atoms, sitting on this round rock with a core of liquid iron held down by this force that so troubles you called gravity, all the while spinning around the sun at 67,000 miles an hour and whizzing through the Milky Way at 600,000 miles an hour in a universe that very well may be chasing its own tail at the speed of light. And amidst all this frantic activity, fully cognizant of our own imminent demise, which is a very pretty way of saying we all know we're going to die, we reach out to one another. Sometimes for the sake of vanity, sometimes for reasons you're not old enough to understand yet, but a lot of the time we just reach out and expect nothing in return. Isn't that strange? Isn't that weird? Isn't that weird enough? What the heck do you need to be from Mars for?"


I strongly recommend you all see this movie. I am definitely going to buy it. It was great! Have a good day, love you, bye!

Mudding

I really want to go mudding one last time at Fish Creek before I leave in May. It is so much fun! I hope it is warm enough and that the tide is right. Here is a picture of our mudding youth activity over the summer.

BYU

For the past 2 years, I couldn't imagine going anywhere other than BYU for college. I have researched it and BYU has everything I am looking for. I want a 4 year college close to Salt Lake City. It is also cheap, which is always good. It was the only school that I applied for and after 8 weeks of waiting, I finally got accepted!! I'm so excited! I hope all your plans work out for you guys. And I hope you have fun wherever you end up. I love you all so much and I will miss you at college. Have a good day!
