Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

The newest movie in the series came out this July. It was good. They hinted at alot of things to come between the main players. This movie was suppose to be alot darker then the previous movies. But really I found the last one darker. You don't even know that Tonk and Remus are an item very briefly does she call him sweetheart that you miss it if you weren't looking

What really pissed me off it that its suppose to end where everyone is in an up roar. The whole school was suppose to be fighting. I was really shocked and alittle disappointed that didn't include this in the movie. When the next movie starts their going to have to explain why everything is chaos.

But I guess if you don't read the books, it was a good movie. It kept moving forward and you didn't realize 3 hours had passed until it's over. Even if you read the books it's still a good movie all in all.

Our Trip

Dustin and I actually got away for a few days by ourselves, no kids, no dog. It was nice. We went to Minot ND for a couple of days. I've only been away from my kids once. That was last June when I had my very first girls weekend. In the past 8 years, Dustin and I have never spent any time away from the kids with each other.

We did some shopping. There isn't much in Minot. They do have a mall but like most malls they have the regular stores and then the stores that are expensive and you only shop in when you have to. The movie theatre there was small from the outside, but once you get into all the tunnels and corridors it really large. It has the old fashioned counters which has their own appeal.

I was surprised at the Barnes & Noble it is much bigger then Chapters and has more of a selection. The lady said that they ship to Canada also. Dustin bought a membership, he really wants to buy their building furniture books.

Needles to say we shopped, ate and watched a few movies. All in all a good weekend
