A Quickie

Just an update on the Austin's at this time. We are just making it through with Bryan helping with the paper route in the morning and helping in the house while I work. It is a role revearsal. Absolutely fabulous. We are working hard on the yard. Last night we placed stone around the tree in the front yard and got everything we need other than sod and flowers. Woo hoo our yard will be normal soon. This last weekend we went to the open house for the new Oquirah Mountain temple in Daybreak. It was so beautiful inside and was a unique experience to get to see the inside of it before it is dedicated. I loved and the symbolism in the temple was amazing. I can't wait to go there for a session. Perhaps whenever we get around to it I will post more pictures of our little lives right now. Talk with you all later.

More Movies to Review

Wow we have been seeing a lot of movies recently. It is really crazy. So in the past week we watched 4 new movies. Well okay one of them we did not make it all the way through. The first one was 13 Hours in a Warehouse. Well we did not even make it an hour into the film. Worst film ever. The cover looked cool but when a movie starts out with a statistic of how many woman in the world have vibrators, that is a dead give away that it is not a good one. It was slow moving, acting sucked, the vulgarity was not funny, amusing nor even necessary and it was the worst plot story and characters ever! I am not recommending this movie even for a red box. Do not waste a dollar on this one. For some reason the effects and filming skills really reminded us both of a porno. Really bad.






Well since the last movie did not make it we ended up taking it back that night and exchanging it for another movie. We got Taken. Good movie. The plott is good, the acting is pretty good, you want to see the good guy succeed and you really see some of the lower aspects of traveling alone and how tourist countries can be just very dangerous. A man's daughter goes to Europe with a friend unaware that they were going to be alone. They meet what seems to be a harmless man at the airport and are later kidnapped as a result. They are kidnapped and forced into protestution and drug use. Also you really find yourself enthralled in the tactics that the father uses to find his daughter. Great movie. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a action film.



The next movie we went and saw with our friends. The Hangover. Flippin' hilarious. Great laugh and totally random moments. Neither Bryan nor myself have ever gotten drunk and had a hangover but you really go through what they are going through. It is about a group of guys that take their friend to Vegas for his bachelor party and find themselves drugged with Roofies the next morning. What one of them thought was ectasy was actually the date rape drug and gave each of them a dose. They wake up the next morning remembering nothing and missing the groom. They have 48 hours to find him and get him back for his wedding. So the plott is great in them trying to remember what they did and following whatever clues they can find. Funny, funny, and more funny moments. Loved it and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a little raunchy comedy with tons of twists.



The last but not least one that we watched this past week was Gran Torino. Another great movie with a classic Clint Eastwood that we both grew to love as the film went on. It was a great plot, great acting, and wonderful deep characters that you could find yourself relating to and feeling sympathy and love for. We both loved and it is a great movie that we recommend to anyone. It is about an old man who loses his wife and finds himself befriending his asian neighbors especially the young son and daughter that are finding themselves unwilling involved with an Asian gang. The gang is a fellow cousin that is obsessed with turning the young man bad in his ways and wants him to join his crew. The boy agrees at first and his innitiation is to steal a car, the beautiful Gran Torino his old neighbor (Clint Eastwood) owns. His nieghbor spoils his plan in stealing the car and makes the boy realize it is not what he wants. The gang members sour over his decision try to force him into the gang Clint Eastwood steps in to save the family. He finds himself trying harder and harder to make his old neighbor nicer and protecting this family. It is really good!

Well considering we watched four movies and liked 3 of the 4 then I think that we did pretty well on our watching of the movies this week. Until next time...

Recent movies seen

So we have seen a few more movies since our last movie post.

The most recent would have to be "Drag Me To Hell." We went and saw this one on our date night just last Saturday. Well the first 3/4 of the movie really good keeping you enthralled in the plot and jumping around each corner. Then we both thought it went a little korny and cliche like for the movie. Parts were great and some were not. One I would definately recommend to redbox but not pay the money to see in the movie theatres.







Next would have to be Australia. Woo hoo. Good movie just a little long. The plot is great and the actors and actresses involved are great. I loved it and highly recommend it to anyone who wants a good show to watch.


Next is the Uninvited. Good movie. Great twist at the end and man you don't see it coming at all. Loved it and highly recommend it.


Next is Up. We saw this movie with Danny, Darcy, Danny's brother Steve and his two kids, Cade and Chelsea. They are such cute kids and really made the night great. The movie was great. Starts out sad and throughout a little bit but was the cutest movie I have seen in a long time. One that will tug at your heart strings for sure.


Well this concludes our latest in movie watching.

Quick Update

Just a quick update on our lives real quick. Bryan is still seeking employment somewhere in the electrical field so it kind of sucks that no one is hiring at all right now. So we continue to take advantage of something that we pay into each check.
So Darcy Campbell will soon be Darcy Fisher now after our Twin Lakes visit. Danny took Darcy out on the family boat with some champagne and as the sun started to set he asked her to stand by him on the boat. He then asked her how much she loved him. Giving him a big hug she replied with "This much." He then took her hand in his and said "Well this is how much I love you." He got down on knee and asked "Darcy Sue Campbell, will you ma.." when he was answered with a happy yes from my sister. It was a perfect proposal. They came back into shore where the whole family and good friends waited anxiously. They were maybe twenty feet from the shore when Danny yelled to the people waiting on shore "SHE SAID YES!!" We all cheered and hooted for the newly engaged couple. The smile on their faces was priceless and Darcy I don't think could have glowed any more. Pictures are to follow of course but only if I ever get time to upload them all. Danny Fisher will soon be a part of the Campbell family. If only he knew what kind of family he was getting into. He fits our family perfectly not afraid to speak up and always laughing and making light of the situation. Great guy.. the best guy for my big sister. I could not be more thrilled for her right now and we are now planning the wedding of the century. The big day will be September 18th, 2009. September is a great month to get married being that is the month Bryan and I said our I do's just less than two years ago. They will be married at the memorial grove park and will be holding their reception at the memorial house there across the street from the park. Beautiful place and perfect for them. We have started all the big plans. Nichole Vans will be the photographer, Nathan Pickett is to be the vidoegrapher, yummy treats will be from La Croussiant caterering, the booze will be served by A Touch of Class, the cake will be from Granite Bakery, dj is still to be decided, flowers are from Posh Posy and invites from Ann Elizabeth. Man we still have so much to do though and then Darcy and Danny will fly out the next day to Barcelona, Spain where they will be on a 7 night cruise through Italy, France, and Spain. Man it will be awesome. Will keep you all up to date on the plans and how it all plays out. Pictures will follow soon of the engagment night. She also found her dress at Alta Moda Bridal and it is gorgeous absolutley breath taking and we can't wait to see her in it again.
On a sadder note though, Bryan's grandpa recently passed away. He was 82 years old and at home when it all happened. We will be attending the funeral services on Saturday, June 13th, 2009 in St. George, UT. May he rest in peace and he is now with our loving Heavenly Father and we will see him again someday.
I will post pictures soon for updates on everything.
