I've got about a third of my Christmas throw done. Hurray! I ironed and cut up all the pieces last week, so that I could sew this week. It will be an awesome blanket but this is the first time I have had something besides just blocks to cut out and sew so the seems are just a leeeetle off. Haha oh well I'll get better I'm sure. It will have edging on the sides and I think I want to add another row to the bottom to make sure that it will cover toes with room to spare :) extra cozy. This Sunday and last I watched Pride and Prejudice while I worked. Can I just say WOW I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that show! I have always been a hopeless romantic. I hadn't even seen it till August of this year. I was hanging out with some friends and one of the guys refrenced it and I was like "huh?".
I had heard about it seen parts (more like seconds) of the Mormon version but had never really seen it. I knew nothing about the storyline or anthing else. He then continued to tell me "You're not a 'real girl until you've seen Pride and Prejudice". So about a week later I went over to his house and watched it with his brother and him. Haha and in their words they made a "real women" out of me. Good good times. Between the language like "violent affections" and the suspense of all the couples I just die. If only things were that fun in real life. One of the best and worse parts is how Mr. Darcy and Ms. Bennett never kiss till the absolute end of the movie. It's so refreshing unlike current movies that are filled with full on everything from start to finish.
Not only that but it's so fun to talk about with other girls haha just one more chick flick to anlyze. Just as a side note to one of my friends I spoke to about this recently I paid extra attention to Mr. Darcy this last time and I'm going to agree with you he is FINE. I'm not a super fan of Colin Firth but in this movie I am! I'm usually more of a blue eyed blondish guy fan, but his brown eyes and hair are just fine the way they are.

:o) haha I love ya Kari! Yeah, I hadnt seen this movie either untill Jeff about died after me telling him that I hadnt. I watched it earlier this year and loved it. It is a good refreshing movie. I love movies like that! :o) Good Job with your blanket!!! starting to look good! Man, once I get a house, I swear I'm gonna start to quilt so I can make one too! I want one
Now go watch the P&P version with Kiera Knightly. It's much shorter, and some things are different because of that, but it's really gooood to. Other Jane Austen movies you MUST watch are Sense and Sensibility with Kate Winslet and Emma Thompson (Professor Snape is in it too!) and Emma with Gwyneth Paltrow (LOVE IT, so funny!) I know there's a BBC version of Emma and S&S, so watch those too if you want!
Haaha, this will sound terrible..I haven't seen it!! Now I'm going to!!
