Chick Flicks
Also known as movies for girls. Some are just pointless and predictable (Two Weeks Notice). Some are just gross (Moulin Rouge). Some are disappointing (Miss Potter, Becoming Jane). Every once in a while there are ones that just make a girl melt in her seat and wish her life could be just the same. Pride and Prejudice is an all time favorite of many. Move over Mr. Darcy because there is a new guy in town! He sweeps a girl name Penelope off her feet, and happens to be just the right mix of handsome/rugged, flawed/learning, sensitive and full of sincere love. Good acting, good costumes, good story, one unnecessary scene (just pointless), and no dirt = good movie!

Little Wonders
(to be sung to the tune "found a peanut")
"On a honeymoon, on a honeymoon, on a honeymoon tonight, tonight they're on a honeymoon, on a honeymoon tonight..."
Two wonderful people chose today to spend not only their mortal lives together, but to seal themselves to each other for eternity. They went in as Michael and Eliza, and returned as one. One in purpose, souls matched together. Throughout the coming years the misfit pieces will be broken and molded as they intertwine themselves with God to become eternal beings.
"When the final timber lay, 'gainst the measured stones, with the door posts in their place overlaid with gold. The Lord appeared to Solomon, blessing all the house, also the temple of the ark of God, pure and whole...Come dwell in Solomon's wall. Come and dwell in the house of the Lord. Where the humble bow down seeking wisdom and strength, for the Lord dwells within and heals their land. Come dwell in Solomon's walls. Come and dwell in the house of the Lord, where wisdom and righteousness, justice and holiness, join at the feet of God."
As my friends, I could never ask for better. Never forgetting this odd red-head, they have continually extended the hand of friendship from the beginning, even while they were sorting themselves out. Forgiving, silly, honest, loving, wonderful people.
"Let it go, let it roll right off your shoulder, don't ya know, the hardest part is over. Let it in, let your clarity define you, in the end we will only just remember how it feels. Our lives are made, in these small hours, these little wonders, these twisting turns of fate. Time falls away, but these small hours, these small hours still remain."
Love you guys. Onward and upward! Waju.

The same day
These pictures were taken the same day. Snow in the morning, sunshine in the afternoon. 
Welcome to Utah. If you don't like the weather, wait five minutes. The best description I've heard was in a restaurant. Customer: "What's the weather normally like here this time of year?" Waiter: "Normal? There is no normal. It changes every day."

Me Mama!
My sister, her husband and I snuck through the crowd, avoiding my mother who was handing out programs. We nearly ran into her, but spun around and walked in the opposite direction. We found seats near the front of the theatre. The program started, and she still didn't notice us. They started announcing awards, and... They called her name! She was awarded the Dean's Staff Award. Amazing, isn't she?She's been working there for YEARS and they finally recognize her for all the hard work she does.
