Today I went and saw Avatar. Everyone has been talking about it. They have also been talking about how amazing it is. In my opinion, the movie was amazing. James Cameron, delivers a great movie. It had a good storyline, good actors, but the most fantastic thing about the film were the special effects. They were outstanding! I never have seen anything like them. If this movie doesn't get an Oscar or Golden Globe I would be shocked. I highly recommend this movie to everyone. It is definitely worth the money you spend on it.

Nielsen Family Party

Every year my family and I go to the Nielsen Family Party. It is never in the same location, it has always been changing. This year we went to a Pizza Place up in West Valley City. The scary part though was driving up. The first happened when we were in the turning lane to go left, my dad went into another lane thinking it was also a turning lane but it really wasn't. So we turned left anyways. The second occurrence and by far the scariest one because we almost got killed was my dad got off a wrong exit. We still needed to be going on the freeway so my dad decides to cross lanes of traffic to get on the freeway. He didn't know that cars were coming and this one car was coming up fast and I thought that we were going to be hit. Luckily the guy slammed on his brakes and my dad drove faster and finally made it back to the freeway. Everybody was so shocked after that no one said anything much. The good thing is we got out of their alive. We finally made it up to the pizz

Christmas Concert

Last Thursday our family had the opportunity to go to the Mormon Tabernacle Choir Concert. For the most part, I enjoyed it a lot. It was very entertaining. There were dancers, a children's choir that came, of course the orchestra and the choir, and then the featured guests were Natalie Cole and David McCullough. I had very high expectations for Natalie Cole. But when she started singing it did not sound good. The rest of the songs were not that good either. People that went on the other nights said she was amazing though so maybe she was just having a bad night. David McCullough on the other hand was pretty good. He narrated some Christmas stories. I thought it was a great performance though. The downside after the concert however was we were stuck in traffic in the parking lot. It took us over a half an hour just to get out of the lot. Despite that, everything went well and everyone all got home safely.
