Holiday Hiatus and a New Blog

Wow, so much for getting a new blog up every week!  Getting ready for the holidays and taking care of a 3-month-old kind of took up a lot of time the past two weeks.  We had a good holiday though.  Saturday before Christmas, we had the family party with Scott's stepsiblings. 

Christmas Eve was spent at my brother-in-law's house, with Scott's Mom and Stepdad, Aunt and Uncle, and their kids, and Aurora was of course passed around throughout the family.  Games were fun this year...I came in second in Inflatable Cactus Ring Toss :)  Christmas day, we drove out to my Father-in-law's house in Romoland (out near Perris, CA), and again, Aurora was passed around the various family members in attendance.  The next morning, we drove from Romoland to Glamis, to spend the evening with my Mom and her boyfriend.  By then, Aurora was about done.  She was tired of being stuck in the carseat (not that I blame her), and she was sick of being passed around.  And we still had another day of travel to go. 

Overall, she did pretty well.  She fussed a little bit when we were driving through the mountains, but not so much that it was unbearable. 

So Scott got me "1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die", and I've decided to undertake a journey through the history of cinema, and I will be chronicaling this journey in my new blog, entitled "1001: A Cinematic Odyssey".  It'll have a bit from the book's review, and my own review as well.  So if you're interested in film at all, check it out!
