Update: Slumdog Millionaire was nominated for 10 Oscars…now you have to go see it!
Matt and I had the rare chance to see a movie the other night…we chose Slumdog Millionaire because we had heard such good things about it (and because we love movies about India)…and it did not disappoint. see this movie.
she does this new thing where she closes her eyes, crinkles her nose and makes a mmmmmmmm sound…it’s the cutest thing…
i’ve been trying for days to get it on camera, and here it is:
so twice today this song was playing by the Killers in the car. i am actually a fan of the song…maybe because i like to dance…maybe because i like the Killers…i don’t know, but it always makes me happy when i hear it.
so on my back to work after lunch, i was singing along, when i drove past one of my neighbors…
and in trying to get my attention he just started dancing on the side of the road…almost in beat with the song, but not really (good try though Chris)…
it made me smile, but then it made me think more about the song (my interpretation)…are we human? ie: going along with what everyone else is doing…or are we dancers? letting ourselves go, being out there…sometimes looking a little foolish?
i don’t think i’ve been much of a dancer lately.
here’s the song…listen to it…and dance.
so there are two parts to this post.
first the light-hearted one:
yesterday i returned to my exercising love…the pool…i jumped in (taking advantage of so cal’s 80 degree weather in the middle of january)…first lap…great…i still love this…second lap…why did i stop, this feels so great…third lap…why did i stop, my arms are KILLING me…
all in all, i only swam 700 of the 1000m i was up to before, but still felt good that i made it that far. i did go to bed thinking maybe i’ll go back tomorrow, and woke up feeling the lovely cold that my daughter has had all week taking root in the back of my throat…maybe i’ll rest today.
and now the spiritual one:
my prayer and fasting has really been going great. within the first few days we got some answers about things that we were unsure of…and it truley was a HUGE blessing…but then there are days like today, where i just don’t know what’s going to happen and i’m honestly a little discouraged about it. i’m being reminded everyday that God is in control, he’s never let us down, he’s always provided…i just can’t get past the wanting to have it all figured out stage.
let go and let God…i guess i’m still working on that one.
Matt’s birthday pic.
Happy Birthday to my best friend…love you more and more,

so i’ve blogged before about how adorable etsy is, and how easy it is for me to get lost forever on the website…
i came across these yesterday and they just made me smile, so i thought i’d share. taken from persimmonandpink’s etsy shop.
