thanks grandma!

sorry for not updating in a while. Sandy was visiting for a week, which means that ben and i both got to go to work for full days and actually get stuff done!
thank you so much for coming!!!

i spent the days working, which means that after Ella goes to bed i don't have to feel bad about not working from home. i spent the evenings this past week trying to finish reading Harry Potter #6, so that i remember what it's about when we go to the movie.

i didn't finish the book, but we did go to the movie last night - i had a great time! it seems like we've been going to the movies more now after Ella was born than before. thanks grandmas!!!
i liked the movie a lot, even though they changed stuff relative to the book. some of the editing was good, some necessary to just keep the movie shorter than say a couple of weeks. some was unexpected: they underplayed the role of the half-blood prince though. that was weird, given that that's the name of the movie...
also, it seems like hermione and ron took acting classes during the summer between their 5th and 6th year ;)

Yeah, thanks Grandma :)
I agree, Harry Potter was pretty good, and it seems like Ron and Hermione probably took some more acting classes.

Sure, Ron took acting lessons and had his hair dyed red and straightened. I believe that.
