The Mainland.....AT LAST!!!!

So just so you know if you didn't follow the link to my Mum's blog on my blog post titled 'Change' than you need to know that we have moved and are now settled in Wagga Wagga. The copyright on some of the pictures are from Mum Mum's blog  'Cherished Hearts at Home' 
This is a narration of the first two days on the mainland and than I skip and choose which I days I'll 'sort of' narrate.
I'll start with the day before we left which was Thursday.
We had a pretty busy day on Thursday, Dad and Braedon flew down from Wagga that morning and caught the bus out of Launceston arriving at about 10 in the morning that didn't stop us from doing the  cleaning and mopping however :( It had to be done anyway.
We had Fr. John and Fr. Augustine to come over for dinner that night as it would be the last tine we would see them and be able to say goodbye
It was so enjoyable to have them both, and just being able to relax after having the last few days being really hectic where there was hardly any order at all plus, the fact that we got Dominoes pizza for dinner and so the dinner clean up was very minimal helped as well.
We chatted about different stuff before dinner and than Braedon took the little kids with him to pick up the pizza. They tried to take a short cut and got lost for a little while. :D

This is me, Dad, Moran and Trahaearn on the Spirit number two

Fr. John told us several funny stories and Fr. Augustine told a story too. Saxoin turned on the open fire and once Braedon got back, we had dinner in front of the fire, I might add and just before they left Fr. John said a prayer for our safe travel and good beginnings in Wagga.
It was actually really sad to see them go it was if finally after all our praying things were actually happening though it seemed hard to believe. After they left we got little kids in mattresses (becasue the movers had already taken the bed frames) and we did some more cleaning before finally sitting down with some chocolate and Milo and watching the

Avengers. Dad, Mum and Autumn went to bed and Saxon, Rogan, Eden and I, who survived off five hours sleep the next day stayed up until 2:00 AM the next morning watching it. Yes, we're crazy :D 'cause we're cool like that.

Friday was EXTREMELY hectic beacuse it was the day off our departure we had one last look around the house walking through it and took photos at the Wattle Tree outside

Me at the Wattle tree.

All of us walked onto the Spirit except for Dad and after getting on and going up two flights off escalators (I love escalators) found our cabins, waited for Dad, and than finally had dinner. We were still eating as the ship was coming out of the bay so we didn't actually go out and wave :(
After that we went and saw what was on at the little movies they have but it wasn't anything interesting   so Mum, Dad and Autumn got a coffee at one of the two café's on board and Rogan, Moran, Arwen and I had ice cold water which was for free.

We went out on deck before we went to our cabins quickly and mum snapped a shot
After that we all went to our cabins and none of us went to any of the ocean recliners AT ALL! They're horrible to sit and sleep on seeing as people with longer legs can't curl up conviently and they aren't very comfortable at all.
The little kids, Dad and mum went into one cabin (they were both next door to each other) and Braedon, Autumn, Eden, Saxon, Rogan and I went into the other cabin.
We joked around for a while about stuff which had me laughing really hard. (Braedon is good at making people laugh as is everyone else) And after doing that for a while we sat down (or lay down is a more exact word) and watched Father of the Bride on Autumn's laptop. Or at least, we tried to watch it but I couldn't see very well from where I was lying down and we didn't even finish it!
It was really hot in the cabin that night and at one point I was so hot I pulled off my blankets and than later on put them back on it was also hard to breathe (you could, it just felt compressed).

Saturday was a long day but very enjoyable :)

Yes, it is blurry

We came into the bay in Melbourne at around 5:30 am in the morning and hurriedly all got into the car.
Braedon, Myffwyn and Rogan walked off and caught a taxi to the airport to pick up Braedon's car we waited outside off Melbourne until they caught up to us and than it was off 
to McDonald's for breakfast.

















After we had had breakfast we hurrried to get the stuff to entertain ourselves out of the trailer and into our respective cars. Mum, Dad, Eden, Me, Rogan, and Arwen for the first part of our journey up to Wagga Wagga (about 5 hours)
We turned on our 'Moving Playlist' a list of songs we had made combined from various artists and we set out.

I knitted in the car though I had various books and looked outside as we drove. It was nice to look outside at the countryside and I particularly liked driving along at 110 kilometres and hour and hundred at other times. I love speed! :D
We stopped once on the way to Wagga and than coming over the border we saw the Murray

It was more beautiful at the bridge and Dad kept on getting mixed up where exactly the border was!
Finally we were across the border and we had left Victoria (my home state) and entered NSW.


We finally got to Wagga and saw this sign

We had finally arrived! We than had to locate the house (This was about 2:30 to 3:00 in the afternoon) and the agent gave us the keys and we set out to look.

My favourite thing about the rented house we are living in now is the pool

The bedrooms are very small but the outside is the main attraction as well as the kitchen.

Braedon went out and grabbed chocolate cake (Braedon loves anything chocolate) and chips but his main reason was to get cat food for the 

This is Diamond. Rogan's cat he got for his birthday this year 

cats who had been in the car travelling along with us.

We went to Saturday night Mass at the cathedral (called St. Michaels) there was a a carved figure of St. Michael the archangel out the front.

The church set up was beautiful but they didn't have the tabernacle where it should have been and that ALWAYS annoys me. The priest talked way to fast and managed to add lots of 'um's' and 'ah's' to his sermon. There wasn't any servers and a woman went and got Jesus! 

That is the thing that irritates me the most and makes me feel exceedingly annoyed. 

The little kids were very tired and so Arwen wasn't too good at behaving because she was so tired.

After Mass we went to McDonalds and Mum and Dad got everyone a McFlurry. 

I chose chocolate. Chocolate is ALWAYS safe. they weren't as big as I though they would be (but than nothing chocolate ever is) and it was very cold that night as well.

I didn't think that they were that great but they were enjoyable and had nice crunchy stuff on top :)

We didn't have dinner that night because we'd had a Mcflurry that night. 

We didn't stay in our house that night but stayed in an motel which was really nice.
Sunday we had breakfast there the next morning and than set off on a stroll to explore Wagga.
It was fun being able to do that though as we'd had a busy last week it was a little tiring.
We went to several stores and got swimmers for everyone as we didn't have any swimmers at all!
After that we went to a park which was nearby and the little kids played on the playground. I played on the see-saw and than Rogan and I got permission to walk down to the river which was just at the edge of the playground.
Some of us went and got some noodles for the swimming pool and Braedon turned up at that time (he went back to his own flat) we had to get laundry done so he suggested that Mum and Dad go to the laundromat and he would take all of us over to his place and watch the Smurfs.

We decided that was a good idea and so Mum and Dad set off for the laundromat and we went to Braedon's place to watch the Smurfs. Braedon gave us each a cherry ripe bar while we watched the Smurfs.
We didn't get to finish the movie (because we were having dinner at the hotel) we did all enjoy it lots however and are still trying to finish it.

The dinner was nice at the hotel and Mum and I split two dinners one was beef Wellington (which I now love) and Monte Carlo Veal. I didn't like the veal that much because it was very sweet. We had sweets as well and than went back to our rooms to sleep.
Fast forwards to the next Saturday.
The next five days were spent unpacking and we went to the Botanical Gardens on the next Saturday we didn't see ALL of the gardens but we did see all the animal and bird parts and played on two different playgrounds.
We went to the library last friday and though its not very welcoming for little kids it is quite big and I managed to find the second book in 'The Mysterious Benedict Society series' called The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Perilous Jouney and I am really enjoying reading them!
Kynan and Geogie will be coming down on Saturday and staying until Monday night and as we haven't seen Kynan AT ALL since January we are going to celebrate his birthday while he's here.
We'll be celebrating and combining Bilbo's and Frodo's brithday's along with 75 years of the Hobbit which happens on fRiday and we'll celebrate on the Friday.

And now the other pictures. I'm not goint to comment on all of them but only a few.

Arwen fell asleep in the car with her water bottle in her mouth.

This is my gorgeous littlest brother Trahaearn who s now walking around all the time!

Yep that's me again! I had to try out the swings. I do it in most playgrounds. :)

\

This is me and Eden at the Botanical gardens. As you can see we weren't watching Mum as she just snapped this photo.

Kangaroo's. There aren't ANy Kangaroos in Tasmania so it was nice to finally see them again 

Me with Rogan we even named these three donkeys as we patted them but I domn't remeber rhe names

Aren't these birds cute?

See what I mean by walking around all the time?! 

The stupid cow wouldn't get up! I was rather disappointed 'cause I wanted to pat it.

The view from our yard. That is lake Albert.

I'm really sorry I haven't been posting but I've been really busy!
Thank you everyone who read this post to the end if you did than you are awesome and anyway I'm pretty sure this is the longest post I have EVER written!
I'll post soon. It's a bit more difficult as we've started our school again after our 'moving break' :D
Bye!
Thank you Jesus for all you have given me and my family!

God Bless

To my Dad ♥

Dear Dad,
I just want to so, "Happy Father's Day" to you.
You are a great Dad.
You aren't perfect but than no-one is. We all have our good days and our bad days.

I love how you get so amused when us kids try to make you smile. You usually get annoyed but its fun to do it anyway.
I hope everything will turn out well in Wagga, Dad; its pretty cool that our second day on the mainland is Father's Day.
Have a great day, Dad!
I love you,
Vellvin.

God Bless

Joy!!

Okay so the last few days have been really hectic but I'm just here to tell you that first this is a scheduled post, and second that it has all been worth it.

At this very moment (I love using that line, can't you tell? :P) I'm standing on the deck of the 'Red Ship' which is the name the little kids and all of us call the Spirit of Tasmania.
The sun has set and the ship is drawing away from the land. It looks like the land is running away from the ship, in fact.

We all have our own 'buddies' to stay with on the ship. Once we're out of the harbour and said our farwell shouting 'Goodbye Tasmania' we'll all go to the little movies that the Spirit has, provided that the movie which is being shown is appropriate
We have two four berth cabins and four ocean recliners. Braedon even came down to help get us moved to Wagga.
Its very relaxing going to sleep with the sound of the ship and the gentle rise and fall of the waves against the sides of the ship. Of course its also very good if you happen to not think about aything to do about the Titanic or remember that you are sailing on the Bass Strait; a very deadly sea because of how shallow it is.
I don't know how much or long I'll sleep for on the ship...it's very exciting!

This was actually written one week earlier than our departure so its not as 'in the moment' as I would like.
Oh, and I won't have internet until Thursday or Friday so if you leave me a comment and I haven't answered or moderated any, that's the reason! : )

And so like Bilbo I'm off on a new and exciting adventure
'The Road goes ever on and on Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Until it joins some larger way Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say.'

 God Bless
 

An awesome, surprising, surprise!

This morning I logged in onto Facebook and was delighted to see something on Taylor Swift page.
It announced that her new album would be released in late October and I'm getting super excited!!!!

I am a huge fan of her music and I'm really looking forward to listening to her fourth album titled 'RED'
My birthday in November and so I'm pretty sure what one of the things I"ll be asking for is! :D
I know this post might not be interesting for some people but hey! I'm a swift fan.
God Bless

I can do it once in a while.....

I know I said that I didn't want to do any more tags or awards but I was so surprised and pleased that Arda had tagged me that I decided to do it.


1. Thank the person who nominated you and give the link. Thank you Arda! I really appreciate this. :D
2. Tell us how the idea of making a blog popped into your head and why you continue it. I wanted to start a blog because my Mum and older sisters had one pf their own and it looked like a very fun thing to do. I originally shared a blog with my brother Rogan, called Courtly Corners (now corners of my world)  after sharing that blog for a few months I wanted to have my own blog and because Rogan shared a blog with me it was a little hard to put something I liked on the side-bar or post something which was a very 'girl kind of post' and I wanted to have my own blog where I could write whatever I wanted to and be able to put whatever I wanted on the side-bar.
3. Describe a usual day of your life. Get up at about seven in the morning wake everyone up, read bible, say prayers, help Moran and Myffwyn, come down stairs sweep the kitchen have breakfast, start school, say Angelus at twelve, tidy up before lunch, have lunch, more school, dinner prep, end of the day clean up, get into pajamas, say the rosary, chill around until my bedtime and than go to bed and read for a bit and turn out my light at ten.  
4. The best collaboration with a blogger(s) Never had one :P
5. Worst collaboration with a blogger(s) Same answer as above.
6. Explain what having this blog means to you. Being able to say whatever I want whenever I want, looking up cool pictures to put on a blog post, checking my dashboard for comments, rambling on about something, visiting other peoples blogs, and just blogging!


7. Nominate 5 followers for this award.
I'm not that great at nominating people so if you want it, be my guest! :)



Thank you to Arda once again

Now I must say seven random things about myself...

1. I can only survive a few days without reading a book.
2. I love watching YouTube music videos from my favourite bands and musicians.
3. Sir Percy is real!
4. I can't wait to read 'Waking Rose' by Regina Doman
5. I like to sweep off carpets and see the little pile of dust which comes off. Weird I know. ;)
6. I'd never want to be friends with Miss Marple. I'd end up getting murdered! (sorry don't like Miss Marple's as you can probably tell)
7. I don't throw up on ships though I can get dizzy.

I give this to...

Rogan
and anyone else please its my pleasure to give and yours to receive if you want it :)

God Bless

Change.

Hey guys,
You've probably noticed I haven't been posting and you might be wondering why.
Well than, because I don't really want to type it all down hop over to the blog post on my Mum's blog to find out why I haven't been posting, and why I probably won't be posting as much in the next few weeks!

I'll have to think of something interesting to do once things have settled down for my blog anniversary which is on my Dad's birthday. :) Got any ideas?
p.s. anyone enjoying watching the Olympics? I'm keeping track of some of the teams and their medals! :D
God Bless

24 hours!!!

It's only about 24 hours to go!!!
Who's getting excited for the opening ceremony? I certainly am!!!
We'll have to get up extremely early in the morning to watch it this time instead of staying up extremely late for Beijing. A few other good things about the Olympics this year is that the Queen will officially open the Olympics and because UK is English speaking instead of in Beijing where the Chinese have a different alphabet we'll (Australians) will be one of the first countries to come out.

I'm looking forward to watching the Volleyball, (preferably Brazil's team) Fencing, Handball, Football (I'm really disappointed that the football team from Argentina didn't qualify for this Olympics.) It was so cool to watch them win the gold medal for football vs. Nigeria. I wish they would make Karate a Olympic sport so the marital arts are a bit more interesting. I'll also be coming as Italy and everyone else has chosen to come as a country as well. e.g. Rogan is coming as someone from Mongolia which means he dresses up in the traditional dress, cheers and goes for them when they are competing against anyone else and waves the Mongolian flag.
Anyway I'm getting even more excited every hour!!! (As you can probably guess :P)

God Bless

Curtain up. Enter Mr. Henty.

I am a book aholic so its no wonder that I post about books. Today is about a author who you might not of heard of. Mr. Henty is a great author. He wrote one-hundred and twenty-two books in all, and we them. In all of the great collection I have read maybe seven of them, or to be more precise, I have read six of them and I finished the seventh a few days ago :) Mr. Henty wrote different books set in different time periods in history.

The Henty book which I just finished reading is called the Lion of St. Mark and recounts the time when Venice was perilously close to be conquered by (I think) the combined forces of Genoa, France and Padua. And the story is told through the experiences of Francis Hammond, a young man who is following in his father's footsteps of being a successful merchant. There are consperacies, pirates, battles with Genoa, escapes and rescues all in all a wonderful book.

A Roving Comission was the Henty which first led me to watching Hornblower and reading Midshipmen Quinn by Showell Styles. It is centered during the time the Negro's rebelled against their oners and all of this is witnessed by a young Midshipmen by the name of Nathaniel Glover. The book started off right with Nathaniel telling a new Midshipmen when he calls him Nathaniel that he has gotten into various scrapes where his name has been concerned and prefers is when people call him Nat.

Winning his Spurs was the (I think) third Henty book I read. It was set in the Crusades and Saxon and Eden told me it was good. I liked it but don't remember that much about it. It had Robin Hood and his merry men in it I remeber that and also the main character got caught by Saracens and escaped and than, after saving King Richard's life he went back home to his lands and had to fight to get them back.
In Freedom's Cause I read In Freedom's Cause: A story of Wallace and Bruce a few years ago. It was the second Henty I read and I was trying to find the 'thinner' henty books because at that time I really didn't like his books. They all seemed such big books and now, I know that their size is about average. I don't remember (once again) that much about it. The made up character was one of William Wallace' and than Robert the Bruce' most trusted men. His name is Archie Forbes, a young Scottish Noblemen who helps both William Wallace and Robert the Bruce in defence of Scotland. 

The Cat of Bubastes has been on my list of favorutie books for years now. I first remember picking it because it was a small Henty and I was required to read a Henty book. I managed to finish it in about a day. It's set in Egypt and I don't remember really much at all about it except that I found it really interesting to read. My favourite character was the main guys friend. Sorry I couldn't remember any of the names, it's just been so long since I read it.

Redskin and Cowboy was a really fun Henty to read. I liked it because it was Cowboys and (of course) indians. But its not all about the battles with Indians you see, through the eyes of Hugh, a young man from England, the many going on's off a ranch. Fires, branding cows, chasing and rounding up cows and all that sort of thing. It also has gold hunting in it and was very entertaining to read.

In Rujub the Juggler the main characters name is Bathurst he has a moustache and strange as it seems, is terrified by the sound of guns. It's set in India just before and during the Sepoy uprising and although Bathurst is in it Miss Hannay is the person the book revolves more around. One day Bathurst saves a Jugglers daughter from a tiger attacking it with a whip and because of that earns the Jugglers thanks and promise that if he is in need of help he will be assisted. I really liked the Doctor, he was my favourite character I do believe as he was frank and spoke his mind and was very affectionate to both Bathurst and Miss Hannay. I also liked the Major(it was sad when he got killed) but I got really fed up with Bathurst all through the book I was thinking, 'Don't you see that you aren't a coward?' He drove me insane as you can probably imagine.

God Bless

My favourite villains.

After having done the post on 'people in movies who irritate me,' I thought I might do a post on my favourite villains. So here goes

In my family we have various terms for bad guy we have the 'good bad bad guys' and the 'bad bad guys'. The good bad bad guys are the villains who are good at being a bad bad guy and the bad bad guys are the villains who have got no style, no background, don't have any good lines, plus, they need to be EVIL bad guys whereas some villains seem to be just boring.

Loki

I mean seriously this guy is really bad. He lets in serveral frost giants jsut to 'spoil brother's big day' and he is such a convincing villian seeming always to be on the peacemakers side but really he's the one who gives Thor the idea to attack the Frost Giants in the first place. he's the picture of innocence and I actually feel a little sad for him in Thor. In the Avengers, however he was a bad guy...a really honest to bad, bad guy. I didn't like him as much in that, probably because he looked a little crazy with the whole 'wild hair' thing. And I don't think he was a smart or cunning.

Count Olaf:

This guy has style. Definitely. He also had some cool lines and his disguises are very nicely done. His ambition is to be the guardian of the three Baudelaire children and there of gain their extreme wealth and fortune. I like him best as Stephano but not as captain Sham. He also is one fo those villians who is extremly bad but he's also your favorutie character from 'A series of Unfortunate Events.' "Do you have a hall pass?" Too funny.

Darth Sidious

A lot of people seem to think that Darth Sidious isn't the best Sith out of the whole Star Wars saga and everyone likes Darth Vader. The thing with Darth Vader is 1. He's a minion of Sidious, 2. He's got no cool lines and he doesn't have Sith lightning. He also breathes funny. 

If there is one Sith who is really villainous: Sidious. He promises to spare Count Dooku if Anakin happens to win in the duel between them but he doesn't, he bides his time for about what, fifteen years, to finally get Anakin to be his apprentice? Which proves he's happy to be patient unlike some other villains. Sure he is a scary bad guy how he fights especially against Mace Windu with the whole 'jumping in the air screaming and freakign everyone who's watching it out of their wits' (No, not really like that)  he looks pretty hideous and no he really doesn't have any good lines but he is EVIL and he plots and waits. He also gets all the Jedi killed. 

He's not a particular favourtie villain of mine but he does deserve to be distinguished as a bad guy who's a good bad guy though not in the same way as Count Olaf, for instance.

Vizzini

Vizzini from the Princess Bride is a funny bad guy. He hasn't got style, but he has great lines and a sense of humor. He's favourite word is inconceivable as everyone who has watched the movie knows. He is bossy, very small and very loud. 

This is one of the best scenes before he dies (yes, he dies)  

 "You only think I guessed wrong! That's what's so funny! I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders - The most famous of which is "never get involved in a land war in Asia" - but only slightly less well-known is this: "Never go against a Sicilian when death is on the line"! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha... "

[Vizzini stops suddenly, his smile frozen on his face and falls to the ground dead] 
That scene is soooo funny. if you haven't seen the Princess Bride you probably should go and watch is as it is a very entertaining movie. Just if you watch the parts with Vizzini.

 Snidley Whiplash

 I have been watching Dudley Do-right for years and seriously Snidley is an awesome villian, cool lines, good style, and argues if he's wearing black. (he loves black too) He knows he's the bad guy and loves it. "I love to lurk, it's so me." One of my favourite scenes is with the Choo Choo train (pictured above) is coming and than he's just such a funny bad guy. Plus, Dudley is sooo gullible.....hunting vampires indeed. :P He has a funny voice too and a evil laugh. His dream ahs always been to be "The bad guy"! 

 Sheriff of Nottingham from the BBC Robin Hood.

Yes, he's not the classic Sheriff of Nottingham which makes him unique and he's a little smarter than average (just a tad). His favourite line is "A clue, no." He refers to the people in and around Nottingham as his 'people his dear people" although they are far from dear to him I can tell you. He can't bear to lose any money at all and as usual is always trying to catch Robin hood and his gang. He makes jokes which no one else find funny except himself and he is pretty evil. He lost his sense of humour at the start of the third season though but than, the third season isn't that great either. 

Barbossa

Barbossa is soooo funny. He's a much better villain than Davy Jones. He loves green apples and you can just see how irritated he is when he see's Jack eating the apple right in front of his nose whereas he can't taste it at all. It kind of makes me sad when Jack kills him at the end of the first movie because as he falls you see an apple roll onto the ground beside him.  He has some cool lines such as "Why, thankee Jack." (Jack) "Your Welcome." "Oh, no we named the monkey Jack." See what I mean oh and yes he loves his monkey and his hat. "I'll buy you a hat.....a really big one." (Jack Sparrow) He caused mutiny on the Black Pearl and Jack and him have this thing with "My ship."

You only see him at the end of the second but you do see that he's eating an apple. I remember going to see at the cinemas and seeing Barbossa at the end and being so excited because he was back. "I assure you our intentions are strictly honourable." swords are thrown up between the floorboards and Elizabeth and Barbossa grab them.

(Jack Sparrow) Good man. 'Weigh anchor all hands. Prepare to make sail. 
[takes out compass] 
(Barbossa) [pats the charts in his hands] Jack... Which way ya goin', Jack?"

He's clever, crafty and he has a great skill with the cutlass. He had great lines (examples above)  He wasn't great in the fourth movie though first, because he lost the Pearl, and secondly he has a peg leg which is sooo not Barbossa. 

He probably doesn't count as a villain in the third movie but he does in the first and though he's still a good guy, he's a pirate and is always looking out for his own interests. He has wonderful minions though i.e. Ragetti and Pintel. 

Hope you enjoyed this guys! :) I certainly did.

God Bless

So apparently...

So apparently today 'Period Movies' on Facebook said that today is 'international kissing day'
And so I have added all the people they had in an album who i have seen in movies and loved. BTW.  This is also just a great reason to share cool pictures and talk about cool people.

I haven't seen North and South shocking I know for some people but my Mum loves it and she says that Thornton is better than Darcy. Never!

Ever After

Henry and Danielle are beautiful together and yes, they are a great couple. Also their story is so cool as well and than what Henry says to Danielle "I kneel before you not as a prince, but as a man in love... But I would feel like a king if you, Danielle De Barbarac, would be my wife. " 

Pride and Prejudice

Lets just say that Elizabeth and Darcy or Liz and Fitz (as my sister Autumn dubbed) them are one of the most beautiful couples EVER! And that one kiss at the end just seems to say "Happily ever after" all over oh and of course that's the scene where they have four very cool horses, and Darcy is smiling.

Anne of Green Gables: The Continuing Story

Anne and Gilbert are awesome together and in the continuing story its very heartbreaking and than you get to the end and than 'It's all better now, Gilbert's back." sort of thing. They are so great together and even though the third one isn't true to the book its still awesome and has LOADS more Gilbert in it! 

The Young Victoria

Albert and Victoria are so great together. I love the whole "Good morning, wife." thing that Albert says and than when he gets shot and you are like "Is he gonna survive?"

And especially the proposal scene 

 "I just got your note. I was riding.

"Sit, please." 

 "The park is marveleous" 

"I'm so pleased you like it. I do want you to feel quite at home... I'm sure you're aware why I wished you to come here. Because it would make me happier than anything, too happy really, if you would agree to what I wish. "

"And stay with you?" 

"And stay with me."

"And marry you?" 

"And marry me!"

For the record however they probably could've left out some of the kissing. :P

The Princess Bride

Westley and Buttercup....is there anything else to say? Oh, yeah, there is beside the fact that they are great together and the scene where Westley rolls down the hill and shouts "As you wish" and than she goes right down after him. It's one of the best bits :) Also what I like to call their theme music is awesome and I always think "That's the Princess Bride music"

Maria and the Captain 

I actually haven't seen the Sound of Music in ages but Maria and the Captain are really a nice couple. Especially the wedding scene. 

Now i don't know if LOTR should be counted as a 'Period Movie' as it is actually a fantasy film and frankly I'm more impressed with Eowyn and Faramir as a couple instead. Maybe it was just because they had wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much kissing the the movies and it made you sick. Well it made me sick anyway :P

Road to Avonlea

Felicity and Gus

I sooo want to get more of the "Road to Avonlea" series as we only have the first season but until than I'll just have to be content to moan and groan how we DON'T have them.

Sense and Sensibility

Haven't actually seen this one all the way through. This picture is really pretty however.

One couple they didn't add but should have even is that many people don't think its that great. 

The Scarlet Pimpernel

Percy and Marguerite are awesome (yes, I love that word if you're wondering) and the start with their courtship and marriage and than the climax is awesome. (in Gollum's voice) We hates Chauvelin don't we precious? Yes, we do my love.
I am a Leaguette although I haven't been one fore that long and I have converted two of my younger sisters to downright die hard Scarlet Pimpernel fans as well, though we usually just call the movie 'Percy' instead. Sink me, but that's a little off the subject :P If you haven't seen it than you should.  Yes, Percy DOES love Marguerite in the middle of the movie he just doesn't show it. :P

Anyway this post had been awesome to do adding all these cool pictures as well, really makes my day. God Bless
