The Descendants

*courtesy of youtube.com*

So a friend and I went to see The Descendants, it was filmed here in Hawaii, on Oahu, the Big Island and Kauai.

George Clooney is a father and husband who’s wife was in a boating accident. She’s on life support, and isn’t going to make it. Then his oldest daughter tells him mom was cheating on him. And so he goes on a journey to find the guy. Only to find out that he is married w/ 2 boys.

At the beginning George Clooney is giving a monologue, about life in Hawaii. And they use scenes that are exactly like the way Hawaii looks, at least Honolulu looks. The busy streets, the homeless tent cities, the homeless living on the beach. The buses and traffic.

Definitely a good movie, and definitely something to go see!

2012

So what does 2012 hold for us?

Well for one – the LT comes home from Afghanistan!! And to me that is the most important. I’m so ready for him to be home, and he is ready to be home too!!! Not much longer!!

Hopefully, it brings a baby, or at least a pregnancy, (doing the math, the baby wouldn’t be due until 2013, which just seems odd to me,) although, I’m on the fence about this…I’m excited to start a family with the LT, but I don’t know if we’re ready…and I’m not sure I want to move pregnant, I’ll do it, and not complain too much, but it’s something to think about…which brings me to the last thing that will happen, or well, the third thing, I’d hope more than 3 things happen, but we are suppose to move at the end of 2012,  Moving is inevitable, it’s a part of the Army(military, really) Lifestyle.

So one of the things I wanted to do when I was home was go to Rock City and see the Christmas lights. And Emily’s family goes every year, so I asked if I could tag along, and my sister wanted to tag along as well. So here are pictures…

Syd, Kynlee and Me

Kynlee insisted on walking, she was so cute :)

Emily and Me – she’s my bestie

Kynlee, Emily and Me

Syd and Me, she’s going to be 12 in Feb, and I just can’t get over how grown up she looks…

This picture is a lot nicer than some of the ones I have with her from my last visit, she was not a fan of me in March, but this trip, she adored me, melted my heart….I miss that girl

They really should put a step behind there for that top slot, LOL
