Katie the Critic

Ok I'm starting this new segment on my blog called "Katie the Critic". Whenever I read a book (which is a lot) or go to a movie (which is a little) I will write a review of what I thought. (Warning: there may be spoilers below)

My first review: Knowing

Well I thought this movie is maybe a C+.

It catches you right away at the beginning, but it is also VERY strange and a little disturbing at some points. If your not into scary or intense movies I do not recommend this. I don't know if the movie is really as scary as I thought it was or if it was just me playing around with my friends thinking it was scary. (but don't get me wrong it was scary- I screamed at one part) After you get over the first wave of scary-ness it just gets weird. The ending was NOT happy- I even cried. It does make you think a little and make your own assumptions on what happened. So this movie goes from disturbing, to intense, to scary, to sad, then to weird. I don't think I would bring young kids to this movie, but that's just me. I know this all sounds kind of negative, but it is a good movie and if your into this kind then you should see it.

Competition!

Ok, so most of you know that my sister Melanie also has a blog. So like most sisters were very competitive towards another. (mostly me) We say things like "so... I saw that your post only had one comment... mine had 3!" So I just was going to let you know, so you can help your favorite blog not be beat by her LITTLE sister's blog. :) The only rule is that we have to put the link to our competitors blog- http://melbellesnews.blogspot.com/

Rodeo!!

This weekend the family went to the rodeo!! We had so much fun seeing all the animals! (and cute cowboys) :) The actual rodeo and concert part was sold out so we just went to the tour the livestock, carnival, and interesting food part.

The petting zoo had everything! They even had a deer!

A lama! I told you they had everything!

This goat was one of the biggest ones there!

Cute: Claire, me, and a sheep :)

Kisses! I dont know what this is but I guess its kinda cute...

We got to ride the trolly to and from the Rodeo to our car

Claire was very tired by the end of the day <3

I dont know about everyone else but I had an amazing day and cant wait to go again next year!

Twilight Party!!

If you haven't figured this out yet, I'm a twilight freak. Anything to do with it and I'm there. So of course for the midnight DVD release party I went. It was so much fun! They had raffles and games and trivia. I even won a gift card because I knew the answer to one of the questions! We got to the mall at 9 and got home around 1, so I was very tired the next day getting up for Josh's 9 o'clock baseball game. But other than the soda machine eating my dollar it was an amazing night!

Me with my ticket to the PaRtY!!

Ahh! Edward was there! Kisses! I had to share him with Brittani

The line was'nt as long as I thought it would be but was still pretty long

waiting...waiting....waiting... at least I had my great friends Leah, Shelby, and Brittani

waiting... waiting... Leah and I had fun with the camera :D

Yes! Finally! All very sleepy but excited we got our movies and free posters!

I bought this shirt with the gift card I won! It says "I love boys who sparkle" (incase you cant read it) and says Twilight on the back in lots of sparkles!

Happy Birthday Brent!

Today is my cousin Brent's Birthday!
Hope you have a great day,
Love the Family!

Happy Birthday Melanie!

My sisiter Melanie turned 12 today and now gets to go to young womens!

Love ya Mel!

Blogging!

I finally did it! I have been trying to get a blog for hours but I could never find a background I liked. (I will still probably change it many times) As many of you know my LITTLE sister has a blog and as the BIG sister that means i need to also :) Even though it is kinda silly for us both to have a blog when we do almost the same things, now you can hear it from both points of view. I cant wait to get started and add lots of fun pictures and stories! Just don't expect it to be that great :)
