 Ok, so I have three favorite actors as I can't decide which of the three are my favorite. :)
So in no special order, here they are:

 Other great movies that he's in are:
"You Can't Take It With You"

"The Glenn Miller Story"
And countless others! :)

My favorite movie with Cary Grant is "Arsenic and Old Lace".
Its a comedy, and is absolutely hilarious!!

4. Do you like to have a snack while you watch a movie? If so, what's your favorite?
Normally, no. But popcorn is good. :)


5.What's your favorite genre?
 I don't know, I like different ones, so no favorite.

The Adventures of TinTin II, whenever it comes out. Which I hope will be soon!!

10.What was the last movie you watched in the theaters?

Umm..... Ice Age: Continental Drift.  (as you can see we go there a lot) *cough, cough* ;)
Eh, it was okay, not near as good as the 1st one. (in my opinion)
 Actually, I've only been to a theater two times in my life!
And the first time really doesn't count because it wasn't even a
movie is was a documentary on the Grand Canyon which was kinda cool. :)

Bunnies & Summertime

This last week was much better than the week before. :)
Our three baby bunnies started to come out of their nest box to explore!
So we got to play with them and cuddle them!!  We got some pictures of them so I thought I'd share. :)

Summertime is finally officially here! Though it's felt like summer for over a month almost!

Last Saturday Megs and I went to Fort Vancouver and took 17th century Black Powder Training again!
2nd year for Megs, 3rd year for me, hopefully Kai can join us next year as she will be old enough then. :)
So we got to fire two flint lock rifles with two different ways of loading them, got to fire a swivel gun, and a small cannon!!
Oh, and the swivel gun has a bigger blast than the cannon, I mean you can feel it more and it's louder!
Here's a pic from a from the 2013 training of us all around the cannon. :)

On July 4th, Megs and I will be in the Ridgefield Parade with our church!
Excited to see what being in a parade is like, though I got put in the truck and Megs gets to walk and hand out candy. :/
 Oh well, at least I might not get sunburned! :P

Also countdown to our Grandparents from CA to visit in 2 weeks! Yay!!! :D
We have a new card game to teach them now too! :)

 Oh! My friend Rebekah Eddy is having a giveaway on her blog, the winner gets a free autographed copy of her book "The Silver Flower".
Go check out her blog and enter!

Life & Death - It's Part Of Life

Yesterday we experienced the sad part of life here on the farm.
My last goat of the year to have her babies went into labor yesterday, after hours of trying to help her, we had to put her down because the kid she had was too big to be able to come out.
I don't think I've cried so hard for a long time. I felt terrible because there was nothing I could do!
That was hard, but I know God has a plan, even though I can't see what the future holds, I know that He is working everything out for good to those who love Him and to those who are called according to His purpose.
So I will keep trusting Him, no matter what.


Here are some pictures of Glory as she grew up.
Her full name is Glory Be to God.






A new quote I learned this week that has a LOT of truth in it!


This world is all the Hell that a True Christian is to ever endure,
and it is all the Heaven that Unbelievers shall ever enjoy.
 --Jonathan Edwards



And just as death is part of life in this world, new life is always happening too.
It's the circle of life, that will continue until this world ends and the new world commences and we will live with Jesus forever with no pain or sorrow, no sad goodbyes. :)

Today I got to go see a new little life. My friends Sarah's new baby.
Isn't Victoria SO cute!! I thought ya'll might enjoy a few pix of her. ;)

Fort Schools Have Come to an End, For This Year....

So since I forgot to do a post yesterday, I shall do one today. :)

This past week went kinda slow as my family all had the cold. No fun.
On Thursday I went to my first First Aid/CPR training and am now certified! (for a few things)

Today was the Fort Vancouver  Schools Graduation/Moving-Up ceremony.
In the morning we had a "Scavenger Hunt", but another way to describe it is a question trivia. :)
We split the teams up into 5 groups, and sent them off to 7 buildings, they had to answer a list of questions at each location, and then guess what the next building they were going to was based on the last couple questions.
They all seemed to really like it!
I got a few pictures to share with you all too. :)
Some students from one team hurrying to the next destination!
One of the questions was demonstrate how to lead a visually impaired individual up and down stairs
'Team E' in the Counting House, they actually won with 107 correct answers!! :D
Here's the whole group (minus one) who did the Scavenger Hunt!

Then after the game was over, everyone head over the the Pearson Air Museum Hanger for the potluck, graduation and dancing afterwards.
Here are some photo's from that. :)

Quite a few student graduates sitting in a circle inside for lunch, that circle kept getting bigger and bigger!!

Lined up for dancing!
So the whole day went well and everyone had lots of fun!
I'm so glad they all liked the game and it seemed to go well! Maybe we'll do it again next year! :D

We also had a baby goat born this week!
Calla Lily, isn't she cute?!

Maybe next week I can post pictures of my friends new baby if I get to go see her. :)

Hope you all had a great week!
