Movie reviews: Indiana Jones , Speed Racer, & Iron Man

For any of you who know us well, you know we love movies. So after seeing Indiana Jones today we thought we would share our thoughts and we'd love to hear yours!

::Warning:: Parts of these movies will be discussed and we do not want to ruin any ones endings!

Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull: Okay so we saw this today and were sorely disappointed! The movie was jam packed with action and cool stunts which included a new one... vine swinging with monkeys! But towards the middle something was a little fishy, I think it was the cemetery scene when Indiana states, "It can't be crystal..." while holding the skull, which made Jason and I wonder why the movie was called the "Crystal Skull". Also if you see the movie you'll agree - Aliens and Indiana don't mix!! Shia LaBeouf does a decent job trying to break free of his Disney mold! Any who definitely worth seeing in a dollar theatre but save your big spending nights for Speed Racer or Iron Man.


Speed Racer: At first the bright overly saturated colors are a little overwhelming but after the first bit you begin to enjoy the awesome cinematography! Mega funny! Lots of great actors and great action scenes. I think one of my most favorite was when John Goodman takes on a Ninja! the movies is full of fun romance and neat footage! Some good twists and a movie that would make any family walk out of the theatre wanting to start up a racing team! Great movie and well worth the theatre experience!


Iron Man: Now Jason saw Iron Man while I was on my road trip, but I thought I would add in his comments! He states " Iron Man and Speed Racer in comparison are two different movies! Great movie! If I had to choose between Speed Racer or Iron Man... it would be Iron Man!

WE MOVED

I had forgotten how hard moving is, and now that its almost done I don't want to move for another couple of years! YIKES!
So yes, we have moved to a larger 2 bedroom apartment! And despite the complaining it kinda feels like Christmas! Our bedroom is no longer the baby room/craft room/ storage/ bedroom! Yeah! Keep in touch 'cause we will be having a "house warming" party/ BBQ in a couple of weeks! I'll post some pictures once the house is put together!

P.S. And to make things even better its finally feeling like summer!! That puts a smile on my face!

The Knot Website!

"On the road again"

Firstly Happy Cinco de Mayo! So I've been on the road for the last week and a half driving all over the western US! So as a warning this is an especially long blog jam packed with amazing pictures!!

We (Tyson and I) left Utah Wed April 23rd and stayed overnight in Idaho. In the morning we started our drive again and made it in time for Erica's endowment. On Saturday we enjoyed her wedding to Danny Castrillo at the Seattle, WA temple.

We also spent time with the McLean family.

One of our funnest stops was at the Tulip Festival in northern Washington. It was so beautiful, don't ya think?

We also went to this Island where we found lots of fun crabs and Tyson enjoyed his first beach experience!



Tyson got to watch lots of sports games but his favorite was basketball!


This is Green Lake Park in downtown Seattle!


On Thursday May 1 we started on the road again! Bye bye Seattle!


We stopped at the Portland, Oregon temple! We also drove along the coastline in Oregon and through California!


On Friday we arrived in La Canada, California for Blake's wedding reception!


On Saturday we had the privilege of visiting Tyson's great great grandma! We also went to the Malibu beach! Sheesh Southern California is nice!!! Tyson loved the sand and kept crunching it in his hands! That night we went to Erica's open house in Grenada Hills, California.





We drove to Vegas that night and stayed with the Fulton's! Tyson was having an attention overload!


We got home Sunday May 4! Boy am I ready to be home and stay home for a while! Too bad I can't relax too much, we are moving next week! Yikes... wish me luck!
