the cars and the trees.

so, it has been a pretty busy weekend. Sean and i went and saw The Blind Side on friday night.
we both LOVED it. really, it was such a good movie. i had no idea that it was based off of a true story until the end. i mean i kind of figured, but i thought maybe it was based off of some true events.
i had no clue it was all true. i felt really stupid after searching for this picture and
 seeing those words on every single picture practically. anyway, it was really good.

i have not seen Sean enjoy a movie like that in a long time.

i also saw New Moon this weekend like almost the rest of the world. and yes i did eat at In-N-Out. i still think EZ Take Out was better. anyway, back to New Moon.  i liked it a lot better than Twilight. i still wasn't "in love" with it or anything. i felt like the books were a lot better.

i have to say that my favorite part was Jacob. i have never been a fan of Edward. ever. he is too serious and pasty white just on his face and he has way too much make-up on and i don't believe that his lips are really that red without lipstick, even for being a vampire. and when he took his shirt off i was like "oh, maybe put that back on?" i know that a lot of people are team Edward and i still hope you like me and i still like you and don't judge because i really don't care that much about these books or movies.

i have always been a Jake fan. i mean "Team Jacob" to be politically correct or whatever.  i know he is only 17 but i don't care. i would totally go to jail for Taylor Lautner. and if your worried about Sean? don't be. he said he would choose Jacob over Edward any day. i am glad we have the same taste in men. it makes things so much easier and less complicated.

 i came home and googled "taylor lautner shirt off"

don't worry, i wasn't the only one who had googled this. it was in the top

searches. i showed Sean pics of both men shirtless. i told Sean that

if he ever leaves me? Taylor is my back-up. i will have to wait til he is legal though.

and he might want to wait a while to have babies..

and at that point my eggs might be kind of old. oh well.

well, i am sure a lot of you are wondering what went "down" at my house this weekend. i have so many cool pictures of it, and wish that i could show them, but was told we would be sued if these pictures went up before this stuff got aired on tv. so i will try to explain as best as i can. which makes me kind of sad because i probably got a lot of people's hopes up with this "exciting news".

anyway, we have a HUGE tree in our backyard. HUGE enough that i have to capslock the word HUGE. anyway, my dad has been planning to get it cut down for a while now. it is so big, and the roots are starting to affect the foundation. also, there is a new home development going in behind our house and if we are ever going to chop the tree down? now would be the best time, right?

well the way it ended up going down, wasn't exactly the way my parents had envisioned it. they thought, "let's pay $1500 to get the tree taken down. they will clean it up." end of story..

well thursday night, my dad got a call from the guy who was supposed to chop the tree down. he had gotten a call from MTV and they were looking for a HUGE 100ft  tree that they could use for a new show they are filming called "Megadrive". i don't know how much details i am allowed to give or anything, but basically in every episode of this show, they want to completely destroy a smart car. you know, those little cars? so anyway, they wanted to put a smart car in our tree and chop the tree down. it was quite an event on our neighborhood. they dropped the porta-potty off at 9 am. they had an ambulance on stand-by. we waited around all day, watching them tear our fence down, and get everything ready. they had a HUGE crane come and we had several people stop by wondering why we were had a car put in our tree. it was pretty funny.

anyway, someday when i am allowed to post the pictures, i will. we have it all on video too. it was quite a way for a tree to go down. although, i still don't think that justifies destroying a $14,000 car for every single episode. but what do i know? it was worth it for us! here is one picture that i think should be okay to post. this is sean and i in our backyard, before the tree went down.  look for my parents house on MTV someday!

i promise someday i will post more pictures.

they said if they saw any up they would sue me.

not like i have a lot to lose, but whatever.

they can have my POS car Chuck if they want.

oh also? i got to meet "baby dwight's" dad Pete. it was awesome!
i got to meet her too. she is so cute!

i hope everyone had a good weekend!

{sorry if this news wasn't as "BIG" as i made it seem. it was fun though :) }

edited to add:
so the premise of this show isn't just to smash a smart car! i felt like i needed to add that it is kind of like the show Nitro Circus. it is by the same producers. basically, this comedian Johnny Pemberton can't pass his driving test so in every episode he is put in monster trucks, tanks, or submarines and does crazy stuff.
we don't know much about it because it hasn't aired yet. but anyway, they just destroy a smart car in every episode because he hates the little ones and likes the big stuff. that's what she said.
