Movie Critic 101

So I have been quite fortunate lately to see Wreck- It-Ralph and Skyfall in the past two weeks.

No worries. I won't give anything away but I will give my opinions of the movies without giving too much away.

First of all Wreck-It-Ralph was AWESOME and AMAZING!
Why? You'll have to go see for yourself to find out.

But for me, I thought it had a great mix for everyone.
It had the girly games, the battle games and the old school games, so no matter who you are, you can relate to this movie in one way or another.


Though it won't show you all the games, you will see lots of familiar characters such as Bowser, Sonic and Pac-man. 

 It makes you appreciate games in a way you never thought before.
It's funny, goofy and creative with a simple story that leads on a crazy adventure. 
I can honestly say I've never seen anything like it and it was wonderful.

I recommend EVERYONE go see it!  As it is, I am kinda picky about movies, so if I say it is great hopefully you can trust that it is. I know seeing movies in theaters can cost and arm and a leg nowadays but this is one movie that I would say is definitely worth it for the whole family.


Now Skyfall, I will have to admit was pretty good.
I haven't seen the other James Bonds movies (I know, I'm terrible) so I have nothing to compare it to. But it was a great action movie that was pretty intense with some gorgeous scenery.
 Also Judi Dench is M. 
I have to say she played the roll well, but lets face it. 
Judi Dench is awesome.
If you don't know who she is you should be ashamed.

 Anyway I thought the movie was good. 
Wish Bonds wasn't such a ladies man...could've lived without it. 
But other than that the story was awesome and intense and I LOVED the house (pictured above).
Wish I could've seen it in its glory.
If you took out his "love life" I would've given it 5/5 stars.
So maybe just wait until it comes out on Redbox and then see it. 

(Sorry, told you I am picky).
Anywho that's whats up. Take your pick.

But one I am looking forward to is The Hobbit! Anyone else up for that?
It's going to be AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

In other news Garett and I are headed to Utah next week to see my family!
(YAYAYAYAYAYAY!!! Doing a little happy dance)
Can't wait to see everyone and eat LOTS and LOTS of PIE!
For now we are relaxing and Garett is recovering from possibly a mini cold and enjoying the fall weather here.

Random side note, it smelled like snow outside last night even though it was probably 60 degrees. Weird eh? (Don't hate me you Idahoans). 

Gah I am missing Bones! Bleh

What's that? What's That?



It was pumpkin carving time!
And Garett and I got the biggest one!
Cleaning it out is always a joy....

Matthew too worked very hard on his.

We even had an electric pumpkin carving tool, pretty legit eh? 

Vampire jack-O-lantern

I promise I helped too.

Can you tell who he is supposed to be?
It would help of his head were rounder and white...

Guesses?

In other news we spent our Halloween watching The Dark Knight
and eating the candy that the 5 trick-or-treaters that came by, didn't get. 

Outside of running some errands our week has been quiet but nice nothingtheless.
Since I have nothing much to report, I will just ramble on for a minute or two.
Oh and enjoy this cute picture of Garett sleeping (fun fact, I took this about 5 minutes ago and he is still there).

Also I am thinking of collecting pictures of him sleeping because honestly I forget to pull out my camera when he is awake. But I will try to give updates on what we look like awake in case you were dying to know.

My hair is getting too long for my liking and Garett got his hair cut yesterday shorter than normal (but I like it!). And now I am craving dry broccoli with ranch. YUM!

I keep meaning to take pictures of where we live, but either our room doesn't stay clean long enough or it's dark outside before I remember.

We're hoping to go see Wreck-it-Ralph tonight. I'll keep you posted.
Does anyone else think it looks like so much fun?????
I hope it is and that it doesn't disappoint or I will be very sad.

I never realized how nerdy Garett and I were until we got married.
Doesn't help he rubs off on me.

I got on facebook today and EVERYONE got pregnant or had a baby.
I won't lie. I'm KINDA baby hungry....no worries, I know Garett and I aren't ready for that yet. But you have to admit babies are so freakin cute. That and I wanna know what ours will look like. Hoping for some gingers one day.

But for now we're partying it up as a twosome.

Hope all is well in Utah, Idaho, North Carolina or whatever state you're in.

Also I am thankful for my handsome hubby who makes me laugh constantly.

TTFN
And eat some broccoli 
(it is the BEST veggie EVER)
The Bonds

P.S. Random fact, I went from having a very unique name that NO ONE else has on facebook, to one of the most common last names ever. Weird. But now my initials are MAB. Weird....
