I am super excited to say that my parents will be here for Christmas!!!! HOOOORAY!!!! They arrive today, so that means there will be no FMRNS tonight. That's okay, though, because in preparation for the 'off' week, A and I watched Towelhead, a 2007 drama with Summer Bishil.

Christmas story time!

Since this is the last Tuesday before Christmas, I've picked out some great Christmas books for story time!






I'm pretty sad, though - this will be my last story time of 2007 - the library is closed on the next two Tuesdays!

And, as always, it's FMRNS Night! We'll be watching Lassie Come Home from 1943. It's true... I've never seen a Lassie movie.

We also have a couple back ups, just in case (it's always smart to have a back up!!) This week, the back ups are Splash from 1984 with Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah, and The Quiet Man from 1952 with John Wayne.



We didn't make it to Red Lobster on Saturday for my graduation dinner (A had been to a holiday party and was super full. We agreed that Red Lobster is best when you can eat a hundred cheddar biscuits - scroll down on that post for the recipe! - and tons of seafood!), so we'll be hitting Red Lobster tonight! WHOOOOOT!!
