Catch and Release

I had told my husband that I really wanted to see this movie so he decided to give it to me on Mothers' Day. I enjoyed watching this for a couple of reasons. One, it had Jennifer Garner in it. I have liked almost everything that I have seen her in. The second reason is that I thought the love scenes were much more realistic than most that you see in movies. They were very discreet and it wasn't all glammed up like most Hollywood movies. I found it a little slow in a couple of places. But I think overall I enjoyed it and will watch it again.

Anna and the King

I have to say that I do believe this is one of the most romantic movies that I have ever seen. I so enjoyed the interaction and the chemistry between the Jodie Foster and Chow Yun-Fat. When you think about the time in which this happened and how forward Anna was it is remarkable that she was allowed to live. How truly brave she must have been first to go and then to leave.

About me

Arlene.jpg Hi! My name is Arlene Robichaux, but most of you coming to this site already know this. My maiden name is Wuolukka, which comes from Finland. I graduated from Harrison High School in Harrison, Michigan, in 1985. I then went on to college at Ricks College in Rexburg, Idaho, where I majored in psychology with a minor in child development. Ricks is now BYU-Idaho. My husband and I married in August of 1991 in Atlanta, and we have three wonderful and energetic boys (ages twelve, nine, and almost six- the one in the picture with me). If you can't tell, this picture was taken at one of our family's favorite destinations, Walt Disney World. Why am I blogging? Now that is a question that I have asked myself a couple of times! I think because my husband offered to help me with one if I wanted one, and also so I could have a place where friends and family could go to see and hear the latest about the family and about me.
