So, I just turned 20, okay, + 9 last week. Had an okay birthday, I ended up catching Anya’s 24 hour stomach bug and was sick all day on my birthday, but luckily I feel better now. Travis caught it Sunday, but he was better the next day as well. Luckily it was just one of those 24 hour things. Granny and Pop Pop came out on Saturday and had a grand time with the grandchildren, Anya and their first grandbaby, Chance! Anya was much more playful and accepting of them this visit as well. They came in bringing her a stuffed Bermese Mountain Dog, so that helped matters a bit. She carried him around most of the day and started playing with them shortly after receiving the toy. She was spoiled very well, but I guess that’s the grandparents job. Travis and I were able to treat ourselves to a movie Monday night so it was nice for us as well. We actually went to see “Snakes on a Plane”. Its not an Academy Award Winner or anything, but it was fun and that was the most I jumped and screamed in a movie in a long time if ever. Its Rated R for good reason. Snakes really bite people pretty much everywhere in this movie, even in the eye! It was rather graphic, but I wouldn’t say it was a horror movie. It was more along the lines of “Anaconda”, but a bit more graphic than that as well. I would put it in the genre of a thriller. It had good action and once it started it was a pretty quick movie. And once the snakes are released on the plane it is an edge of your seat, cover your eyes in this part type movie. Seeing it once was enough, although if we really felt like seeing it again…I guess I would, but I really didn’t like the snakes. I think part of the problem was the music and the snakes just coming right at the screen. It has Samuel L. Jackson and Julianna Margulies, from ER fame, in it. Not for kids under 16 in my opinion. I’d give it 3 stars out of 5. A fun movie, but don’t go into it expecting anything more than a fun film that will make you jump out of your skin and question whether there are snakes under your seat!
