You don't know this, but I usually come to my blog once a day. I have my list of family and friend's blogs and I like to see if anyone has updated theirs. I know there are probably easier ways for me to do this, but this is what works for me.

When I come check my site out I usually feel bad that I haven't updated in a while. But since the camera is broken I am having a more difficult time with it all. We do have another, older camera and have started taking some pictures with it. However, I have no idea where the connected cable is to the computer to upload the pictures so I don't really deal with the camera at all. And pictures with my ipod-thing don't seem to be that great so I am not going to start using that full time.


It is time to give you some update news, though.

First, I finished the 8-week wellness challenge that I was a part of. My team ended 4th in a competition of 6, but we actually got a lot of points, and had we been in other competitions we would have done better. We could have one by 1000 points in one competition and gotten second place by 1000 points in the other competition.

But it is what it is, and I wasn't going into the challenge to try to win big. But it did make me feel more positive about my team and the hard work that we did.



2nd update: Morgan is now the Elder's quorum president in our ward and I am the secretary of the Young Women. It is a new challenge for us, but we are both looking forward to the growth we will have. So far I have been keeping Noelle with me during YW and Morgan has had to still teach Sunday School. Maybe once we get a replacement Sunday School teacher I will have him trade off taking care of Noelle though.  Although, there are only like 4 more months until she is old enough for nursery.  Crazy, eh?


3rd - Part of the instruction that Morgan received from the stake president when he was called was to take me out on dates once a week. We decided to combine that counsel with my reward of a movie night from my wellness challenge and go to a movie and dinner.  (We did a matinee, so it comes first.)

We went to see Dark Knight Rises. There were only about 6-8 people in the theater for that matinee showing. I don't know if it was because it was a matinee, or because people are afraid to see that movie in the theater. I know that I was a little nervous sitting there, thinking about what happened in Aurora, Colordo.

But I got over it and REALLY enjoyed the movie.  It was excellent. There were so many things that I felt were perfect about the film. I don't want to go into them here because I don't want to give anything away.  It felt less dark than The Dark Knight. It definitely seemed a lot less violent to me. Now Morgan and I want to go back and watch the previous two films again.  I sort of wish that we had watched them prior to seeing the movie so we could be completely up to date.

That will be my recommendation to you.  Watch Batman Begins, The Dark Knight and then The Dark Knight rises.  It will be worth your effort.
