Movies/Media

Oh man... ready for a little rant post? 

I have found, more frequently then not, that there are fewer and fewer movies without any little parts of yucky. 
What do I mean by yucky? Swear words that are out of nowhere and don't add anything to the movie. They just make the actors/actresses sound like idiots.
Suggestive scenes, or just downright showing you it all scenes. NOT NECESSARY to a good story.
And movies that look cute and end up being based on bad ideas and standards to begin with. "Something Borrowed"... ummm... her fiance should NOT be borrowed and ... we shouldn't watch a movie about it. Too bad I didn't get that till the middle of the movie. 

Anyway, we have a lot of GREAT movies... with a part or two. And I was feeling guilty. But then I remembered... I have skills of editing movies! I did it when I need to make a school-appropriate version to show my students. And thus begins my project. 

I'm editing my movies. So there Hollywood! I own them so I will edit them. :D 

I'll let you know when I'm done and we can watch some clean happiness together!

Good for you! I have to agree that Something Borrowed was probably the worst/dumbest movie EVER EVER EVER! A couple of hours wasted that I will never get back. Grrr...
Speaking of good movies, perhaps we should have an Austen-thon one of the days you are here...? (:

What a good idea! Our clear-play broke and I've been bummed. Some of my favorite movies have just that "one scene" that makes me feel sheepish.

She's here!

Hello Family and Friends! If you haven't heard yet, our little baby girl Adalyn was born Tuesday, March 15th at about 2pm. She was born by emergency C-section (they knocked Nicole all the way out because there wasn't time for anything else) and was under a lot of distress. After a wonderful blessing from her Grandpa Hicken and Daddy she was life flighted to McKay-Dee Hospital in Ogden. She is still in the NICU there but is making great strides each and every day.  Her mommy and daddy named her Adalyn Julene Anderson-- after her great grandma Anderson (Julene). She has already blessed their lives immensely and she has benefited so much from prayers and fasts of family and friends. She has a long road ahead of her, but she is a fighter! Her grandpa Hicken calls her his little Millie- because she is a miracle baby and in Spanish, miracle is Milagro. She is a miracle and we are so happy to have her.  Love you all!

Delivery Day

Well folks- it's D-Day! After talking some more and discussing with us- our doctors (a team of OBs and Perinatologists) have decided that it is best for baby boy not to have any risks with the placenta and come today. So- He's going to be very early- they will have completed the steroids though, so that is helpful. But we all feel that this is the very best thing for HIM. I'll have a c-section- hopefully regular this time- this afternoon and we will have a baby boy by this evening. He will go straight to the NICU and we'll just see how he does to know more about how long he will be there. Again, thank you all for your comments, prayers, texts, phone calls. We appreciate all of you and your love and support for us! Love you all- remember we are in His hands. And who's better to be in.
