Ice Ice Baby

Yes, we all saw the movie "Ice Age 2" the other night. Well, Ethan only saw parts of it because he took six bathroom breaks! The movie was pretty funny minus the couple of inappropriate words they used in front of the children. These are our favorite characters:

Mark loved Mannie. Manny's the typical two story tall, 10,000 lb elephant covered in fur. But behind those pearly whites and cool exterior is the biggest heart of all.

I loved Ellie. Ellie's a female mammoth who believes she's a possum and she is comfortable with that. She's fun loving and a free spirit who continually challenges manny's rigid sense of mammoth propiety.

Valerie loved Diego. The meat eater of the group (who would've guess that Valerie would go for the carnivore). Diego used to be the baddest part of a pack of mean saber tooth tigers. Now he's the best part of the weird herd of adventurers.

Ethan loved Scrat. Scrat is the sabertooth squirrel. Frantic and compulsive. Nothing will come between him and his nut.

So above is a couple pictures of our "ice age 3 storm" the other night. Our weather has been consistently sunny and 70 degrees (read it and weep you Washingtonians), then out of the clear blue came lightening, thunder, and hail the size of a.....well you can see for yourself above! We are truly enjoying this new little neighborhood and are thrilled that we are no where near all those trees at our other house on Bolling!
