Vantage Point

Richard and I went to see the new movie, Vantage Point, today. Tiffany saw it a few days ago in Illinois and liked it because it was so intense and exciting, so we thought we'd go see it. And, yes, it's quite the exciting movie! It has a lot of twists and turns that you don't expect, so it keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole time. Good thing it's only about 1 hr. and 20 min. long because your heart couldn't take it much longer! After the movie, we went and picked up a couple of fish filet sandwiches from McDonald's. They were very good, as always; unlike the fish sandwiches we got at Wendy's the other night which weren't good at all. We probably "caught" that Wendy's on a bad night, or something; but I've never had a bad fish sandwich at McDonald's. So they have my vote.

For FHE tonight we watched the Pratt Brothers DVD which our friend, Mark Rowe, gave to Steven. Mark is a descendant of William Pratt, and he knows that Steven is a descendant of Parley P. Pratt, so he gave Steven one of the DVD's that he'd been able to get through the Pratt Family organization. We watched the "Ancestor" part and the "Parley" part, which were both very interesting. Susan Easton Black is one of the commentators about Parley, so that made it all the more interesting to us. She knows a lot about Parley, as she does about a myriad of other things, as well.

Tonight Karalie is having a "head shaving" party up in Salt Lake with some of her friends. She was hoping to have enough hair left to shave off for the party. They were planning to have some good food and presents (which I imagine would be head coverings, etc.). So we hope they all have a good time. One thing about Karalie, which I'm sure is helping her, is that she is trying to maintain a positive attitude about everything she's going through right now. That's bound to be helpful. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Karalie.
