Saturday Night

After watching the Indiana vs Purdue football game we watched the movie, "I Remember Mama",(1948)a story of a middle-class Norwegian immigrant family, set in 1900 San Francisco. The family is held together by a stern, resourceful, untiring and loving matriarch, Mama (Irene Dunne). Family life is recalled in flashback style from the diary of one of the daughters, Katrin (Barbara Bel Geddes) as she narrates:
"But first and foremost, I remember Mama". The family is surrounded by a colorful procession of relatives, boarders and friends.

One of the reasons we watched the movie was because two weeks ago we watched our second daughter, Jody play the role of Mama in the play put on by New Haven High School. Jody is in the green dress.


After the movie, Bob and Zack were trouble shooting the fan problem with his playstation 2.


Boomer was laying by Bob's feet ready to offer his assistance if needed.

And Jenny is down in the basement painting. I wasn't allowed to take a picture of the painting she's working on, but here is the paint pallet so you can see the colors she's working with.

Joey is taking a nap, and I'm blogging the night away.
