Hello!! Wow, I've really been slacking on the blog posts again! So, I'll do a quick catch-up here, with no pictures because I can't get that to work correctly at the moment. Let's see... not a lot has been going on, really! We had a good Christmas and New Year, and in early February we celebrated Guinness turning 10 years old! How is our little guy 10 years old?? I do not know... but thankfully he still acts like a puppy most of the time. He naps a lot more than he used to, but other than that you can't really tell that he's 10 years old now. We decided to spoil him rotten this year since 10 is such a big birthday! We bought him a few toys and a little birthday bandana, and he got to have some boiled chicken! He was a very happy pup for his birthday. I will post pictures very soon of him on his birthday!!
And tonight are the Oscars!! Wow, I can't believe that's here already!! We didn't get to watch many of the Best Picture nominees this year, but we did see some of them. I will be rooting for Everything Everywhere All At Once to win EVERYTHING it is nominated for!! It should definitely win Best Picture, Michelle Yeoh should win Best Actress, and Ke Huy Quan should definitely win Best Supporting Actor. I'm also rooting for the Directors (the Daniels) to win.
Out of the Best Picture nominees, we also watched Top Gun: Maverick (very fun and entertaining!), The Banshees of Inisherin (wowwwww was it dark.... I was very upset at the end of that movie), and Elvis (Austin Butler did a fantastic job, but I do not think this movie should win). I still want to see Triangle of Sadness (which is supposedly a comedy, even though the title doesn't sound very funny....), but that might be it that I still want to see out of the Best Picture nominees. Oh, and it is a CRIME that RRR did not get nominated for Best Picture. That movie is absolutely amazing (but suuuuuuper long). RRR did get nominated for 1 award (Best Song I think?), so I'll be hoping it wins that one.
For animated features, we saw most of those and I will FOR SURE be rooting for Marcel the Shell with Shoes On to win!! That movie is ADORABLE, and I highly recommend that you see it if you haven't seen it yet. The Pinocchio movie by Guillermo Del Toro is highly favored to win, but we didn't really like that movie... so we're strongly rooting for Marcel the Shell to win! It's an underdog for sure.
I hope 2023 has been going great for all of you so far, and I will definitely do another post VERY soon with lots of pictures!! The Oscars are starting in 10 minutes, so I'm going to go watch them! Bye for now!
