This past Thursday night we were, as our friends referred to it, "baptized into Pasadena." We went to our first moving screening. During the week prior, people will be passing out fliers for a movie that is not yet out but that will be playing at a nearby movie theater for a screening. You take the flier, go online and rsvp that you will be attending. You arrive 45 minutes before the movie starts, stand in line and hope to get in. If you get in you see the movie for free and then take ten minutes or so after the movie to answer a questionnaire. Free movie that isn't even out yet?! So great!!! We saw a movie staring Matt Damon called The Informant. It was produced by the guy who did the Ocean's movies and Erin Brokavich. It was a true story and quite funny...a little long in the end but maybe they will change that before it actually comes out!
Saturday we went hiking on the mountains in Altadena, the ones that line our view behind our house. It was a really great morning, cool in the shade and beautiful sunny skies (but then whenis it not sunny here!). We took Shiloh along and he loved it. It was a dirt path straight up the mountain and by the time we were making our way back down he had turned from white to golden brown! He was filthy but so happy! (Please excuse this horrible picture of me...but check out Shiloh's face! He was so happy!!!)
The past few days Josh has taken up the hobby of painting. He really enjoys folk art and has taken on some of this style in his most recent painting attempts. He has painted an old bucket we had that we actually used in our wedding (it used to be pepto pink) and and old door that we had been using for decor. He is quite talented and has enjoyed having a hobby completely outside of his everyday studying.
We are hoping to do some relaxing things this weekend before the start of the school year on Monday! More to come soon!
