Snow

It's been snowing!!! I love it, although it'll probably be a long winter!!!

We put up our tree finally. We resorted to the fake one we bought a few years ago even though a few strands of lights are out. I didn't feel like spending the money on a new one. It still looks pretty. (Asa is apparently smiling in the picture....)

Today Asa and I went out to breakfast. This is the second time we have done this and it was a lot of fun! I also did a lot of christmas shopping on Amazon.com with free shipping! I was so happy, I found a bunch of great things for great deals! Asa needs a nap and I kind of missed it because I was on here shopping. Oh well!!!

Some people I know have said some things about The Golden Compass movie that has either just come out or is about to. Some people were very against it, and others (although a lot younger) seemed to like it. I decided after telling a few peers the negatives I had heard about it, that I should research it a bit before I go on. So apparently the movie is far from the book, and those who liked the book would probably not like the watered down version hacked up version. The book is the dangerous part anyway, at least for kids. I read about the athiest author who apparently wrote the series the book is from with an anti-god, anti-establishment flare in opposition to the Chronicles of Narnia which he hated(that is just one thing I read). The movie is supposedly pretty loose morally and maybe bad for children as it encourages the questioning of authority (and ultimately destroying it? in the later books) So I feel that even though it's pg-13 and still looks kiddish, it really shouldn't be for kids. I personally don't want to see it because of the author, but ultimately I think the book is more harmful than the movie, though I'll really only know if I have read and watched them both. We should be filling our heads with edifying things right?
