Finding Neverland

John and I went to see "Finding Neverland" today and I thought it was an excellent movie. Warning to those who don't like movies that make you cry - this one will. Johnny Depp and Kate Winslet both did wonderful jobs with their characters and the children were great! So if you have the chance, go see it - very touching film.
The Christmas tree is up - Michael suggested that we put it in the family room this year, because that is where we spend most of our time. I didn't think I would like it, but it turned out to be a great location. Last year because of my father's illness and his ending up in the hospital in December - we didn't put up the decorations. Michael did set up his little tree on Christmas Eve, so we would have something. I don't know if that's why we were ready to get everything up early this year, but Andrew is home this weekend, so it seemed like a good time to do it together. Tomorrow they asked our family to do the first Advent Reading at church - so that will be a special time. Then right after lunch AJ has to head back to Terre Haute. I guess I'll have to change all the Cedar Rapids weather reports on my websites back to Terre Haute. It's been a wonderful Thanksgiving vacation with the boys and I am a little sad that it is almost over already. But I probably shouldn't get too used to being off work, or I won't even want to work part-time soon. I just love being home so much, what can I say? Well, Muffin just came in from outside and is demanding my attention for some serious petting, so I'd better stop or he'll climb up on the laptop. Happy Sunday to all!
