Little Family Controversy

little family controversy last night and the topic was the movie "Up". Jeremy was saying how he did not like that movie, that it was depressing and he didn't like it, and I on the other hand was telling him I thought it was one of the most beautiful stories of all.

Here to have that "adventure" kind of love, the love that you could just see in Carl's eyes for his beloved wife., Ellie, the handprints on the mailbox to the picnic lunches under the trees. And as the story unfold they loose a child, but they move on with their lives and just live an adventourous life, laughing, and having fun, and when Ellie dies, part of him dies too. But what is so amazing and so beautiful is that Carl is doing everything to honor his love for his wife. He keeps the mailbox and he gets upset when the workers knock it down, he talks to her everyday, whether it through a picture or through his actions you can just tell how much he loved her and how much they were truly soulmates. It reminds me of my favorite movie "The Notebook", only it's a cartoon.

It is a beautiful love story - a story of soulmates, of friendship, of true love and living an adventure - life is too short, so shouldn't life always be an adventure?

Jeremy thought it was too depressing, the fact they lost a child and that she dies, but just like a man he didn't see the deeper side of it all - :) LOL...... everyone's opinion is different I suppose.

Anyway, hope everyone survived the snow. Took the boys outside on Saturday and Logan HATED coming inside, the tantrum, oh my - he is going to be my outside boy. He hates being inside. But they had fun. Sunday went over to mom and dad's for the Superbowl. Kind of weird this year with dad not being there - he loved to make the squares for the kids to pay .25cents to buy them and pick one out. But we didn't do it this year. Like Jen and Jeremy said you wind up spending $20 before you know it to fill all the squares up and not winning anything.

Besides we just watch the game for the commercials anyway. Bud Lights are always good and there were a couple funny Doritos commercials. Little sad that the Colts didn't win :( but it was a good game. And why they do not have these games on a Saturday night is beyond anyone. Having to rush home during half time to get the kids to bed because of school and not being able to drink that much because of work :) - what are they thinking.

I hope everyone was careful this weekend and be ready for the next round of snow, they said it is coming tonight - woo hoo. I am SO ready for Spring.

Miss and love you dad!

Much love to all,
