*Narnia, Newborns, and Navidades*
My wife is right now rocking Baby Iliana to sleep. This is a task I began, but was unable to complete due to my impatience and a blatent attempt to incapacatate me by the aforementioned child. OK, she head-butted me in the mouth, and it freakin hurt! I was like, “That’s it! I’m done!” and put her down on the ground, nicely. I was then instructed to do a task that I could accomplish with fair ease and grace–go to 7-11 to get milk and snapple. And so that’s what I did. I’m also diggin’ this Naked Juice I’m having, and the new Il Divo Christmas album. Those guys are unique, and did you know that there’s a pound of fruit in every bottle of Naked Juice? I didn’t. That’s cool. The only un-cool part of the Blue Machine is the bananas. Why does every smoothie have to have bananas in it? Who made that rule? Well that’s great…alright, let’s crank this thing out, Trump style…
Fa la, fa la, la la la la…HAHAHAAHAHAHA I’m laughing so hard right now…
Ok- no- seriously..
So I did see Narnia today. I loved it. Semsen and Janke give it four thumbs up. Yes, we get two thumbs each…and OK, Mike actually hasn’t seen it yet ’cause he’s lame, but maybe he’ll go tonight…
I thought it was great! So much of it is so blatantly an allagory for Christ’s redeeming love that it is amazing to see it on film and amazing to see that it is likely to be a HUGE blockbuster. HUGE. UUUGE!! (again, more Trump…). But really, it was fantastic! A must-see. I really got choked up when I thought about Christ’s love, even for the worst of us, the most undeserving, like me and Edmund. It was awesome. I REALLY hope for more installments. C.S. Lewis-Tolkein style. It’s great. GO!!!!Also-rounding out this day’s events, we got a Christmas tree…err..Holiday tree…umm..it was the easiest buy to date. Christy didn’t take forever picking it out, and the lady at the checkout counter said Merry Christmas, leaving me to think that at least the WHOLE world isn’t crazy into the “only-say-Happy-Holidays” thing.
So for all dat:
Merry Christmas.
It’s almost time for “The Great Choir Reversal”. Don’t tell Chris.

Loved it!

That message was great, but the movie on a whole was just good…not great, but good.
For the record, I got both Josiah and Elliana to sleep- thanks for trying though.
uh…i already told him? SO DID HEIDI!
fa la fa la, la la la la….heidi hasn’t seen the clip yet but she’s already using it. I’m ok with it. you should be too. see you later.
I totally told Chris. He’s so upset he said he might cut off his knees.
Actually, he told me that once in Male Chorale they had to take a ceiling panel out of the ceiling in order for him to stand on the top riser. HA!
I went on a huge Naked Juice kick my senior year of college… I didn’t have a meal plan, but my dad paid for “cougarbucks” (which I could use at the coffee shop) Yuuummm!! Well Being and Power C are my favorites.
Naked Juice rocks!
