The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of The Dawn Treader..........




Official Synopsis: Return to the magic and wonder of C.S. Lewis’ beloved world – via the fantastic Narnian ship, the Dawn Treader. In this new installment of the blockbuster “The Chronicles of Narnia” motion picture franchise, Edmund and Lucy Pevensie, along with their cousin Eustace, their royal friend King Caspian, and a warrior mouse named Reepicheep, find themselves swallowed into a painting and on to the Dawn Treader. Their mission – on which rests the fate of Narnia itself – takes the courageous voyagers to mysterious islands and a river that turns to gold, to fateful confrontations with magical creatures and sinister enemies, and to a reunion with their friend and protector, the “Great Lion” Aslan.



i am so excited going to see this movie tonight....i have never seen a movie in 3D so this will be a first for me...secondly i haved loved C S Lewis' The Cronicles of Narnia adatped for the big screen so far.... ....( plus i bought the series of books for stuart as a gift when we were dating)....and lastly i love Aslan and can't wait to see him on big screen again....i will let you all know what i think later....


reporting back:...firstly loved the look..3d glasses..not..but most enjoyed my first 3d experience....this movie is possibly not as brilliant as The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe...but nevertheless still most enjoyable and as i suspected my highlight was seeing Aslan again...they have captured something of the Father heart of God through this mighty lion...

my life in 2010 via my facebook status updates....





from this it confirms cups of tea are important to me....:-)

a break in the clouds...



i came across this photo my hubby took and had named 'a break in the clouds'....this represents life at times to me..waitig for those beautiful moments when the cloud breaks and the sun pierces through....sometimes it feels like the clouds are climbing across the sky ever so slowly and then there are seasons when they are hurtling and the sun breaks through before you know it....the only thing is we never know on any particular cloudy day..which it will be...

compassion...





stuart and i have been writing our first letter to a second new addition in our family..Ines in Bolivia ...who we are sponsering through compassion ...take a moment to check this organisation out and for a very small amount a month you could help some child be equipped for a better life.....sometimes for me it is easy to be moved with compassion in a moment of hearing tragic stories of people living in extreme poverty and then move on in my daily life and not respond.....thankfully this time was not one of those moments...it is brilliant to be a part of such a worthwhile work.....
