Marley and Me

By -
Matt and I were able to squeeze in our weekly date night. After all the hustle and bustle of the holidays it was a welcome get away. We decided to see the newly released Marley and Me. I had read the book by John Grogan last year and loved it and I must say the movie did not disappoint. Like the book it had you laughing one moment and crying the next. If you have a beloved dog as we do, it will be that much more endearing to you. Two big thumbs up from both Matt and I. A must see for you and your family on Christmas break.

"Wait, did you say a frog?" "Yeah it's a frog and it's in his scripture case." I stop for a moment trying to wrap my head around this one, then in my best nonchalant reply. . . "Oh a frog huh? (pause) a pretend one right?" The informant is just about to burst at the seams as he shares this last juicy tidbit with me. "No, IT"S A REAL LIVE ONE and it's in a bag of water that he showed to the whole class in primary today." After thanking my source, my mind quickly flashes back to a booth I had seen the day before during Draper Days. The large sign read -FROGS $...
