Aunt Butchie's Birthday BBQ

Yesterday we spend some of the day at a BBQ at Ruth and Steve's to celebrate Aunt Butchie's Birthday. Her birthday will be on Wednesday this week so we wanted to pay tribute to her turning 75 this year.
Dave and Steve BBQing!
Happy Birthday Aunt Butchie!


This past weekend, Saturday morning I also took Riley and Brady to see the Kung Fu Panda movie. It was really fun for them and the story had a good message too.

Then for "Date Night", Dave and I went to see the new "Get Smart" movie that is taken from the 1960's TV show. It was very funny and entertaining. If you get the chance, go see this movie to get out of the heat (using "their" AC).



While mom and Ron were here, we went out for a "dinner and a show". We ate at Panera Bread and saw the Incredible Hulk movie. This movie was, in my opinion, OK... Of course, taken from another TV show from the late 70's so I knew the plot but they have added more with computers etc. It is amazing what they can do to make a "Hulk" these days. Lou Ferrigno who played the Hulk in the television version was also in the movie. He played the voice of the HULK and a security guard. It was funny to suddenly see him in the movie. I know the kids today didn't know who he was... only those of us that were watching TV back then.

Yep... three movies in the past week. Usually it is about three movies within three months. But, hey, we have been on vacation ;-)


Have a good day! It is back to work today for me!

You've been busy with movies! I was hoping the Get Smart movie would be good because I thought Steve Carell was good casting! Glad Aunt Butchie had a nice BD celebration. Where did the name come from? And no, I'll take the heat over June Gloom anyday! (((Hugz)))
