I Love You As Much As . . .

Andrew and Arianna were talking one day. Inspired, no doubt, by the "Guess How Much I Love You" storybook, they started sharing how much they loved each other. I love you as much as the stars in the sky. After much though, Arianna said, "I love you as much as a hen has eggs!"

Whoa, that's a lot of love!

Here's to the sweet little girl, who currently has the sniffles!

Stranger Than Fiction

I keep forgetting to write about this cool movie that Andrew and I saw. It was more like watching a play than a movie. Not only were the actors fantastic, but it was all plot -- no guns or wild action. And the writers utilized so many literary elements, the movie could easily be used for a literature class!

Anyway, the story is about a man who discovers he is a character in a book. It's hysterically funny how he happens upon this information. But his story isn't finished yet and he is desperately trying to find the author because he is opting for a happy ending rather than a tragic one.

I haven't enjoyed such a thought-provoking movie in a long time! It was great for our date night because we had so much to talk about after watching it together. Wonderful use of literary devices, excellent acting, and existential issues galore. We give it four thumbs up!

House pictures (finally)

This is the link to Arianna's photo gallery. If you click on Woodbine, you'll be able to view some before and after pics of our new house. They are in random order, but I think you can see how much work we have done and how it all turned out in the end!

Enjoy,
Rebecca
