Christmas in Style

Here is our house all lit up and spreading that Christmas Cheer. Kirk put these up while I was slaving away at work on Monday. I was so happy!

Monday night we went to Amy and Collin's house for dinner with some of the fam. While we were there Mark (my bro) was telling us about Disney's The Christmas Carol movie. We've wanted to see it and so when we left Amy's for home we decided to be spontaneous and see the movie that very night. We were in luck since Santa Fe is right by Amy's house and the next showing was in about 25 minutes by the time we got there. As I was buying the tickets I struck up a conversation with the kid behind the cash register. He had two textbooks open in front of him and was fervently studying away when I interrupted him. Turns out he was studying Anthropology and...Latin. What? Who chooses to study Latin? I can't imagine it's an easy subject so he definitely gained a little of my respect for whatever it's worth. As I was engaged in this riveting conversation with the young man he printed my tickets and to my surprise handed me two pair of 3-D glasses. Um...

I thought $23 was a little pricey for a week night movie. So we watched the movie in 3-D which was quite an experience. I've never seen a movie in 3-D before. It made me a little sick with the eye strain it requires but it was awesome to have the snow falling in your lap and the hand of the ghost of 'Christmases yet to be' reaching for your face. Great movie!

Here we are in our ever-so-stylish glasses.
