Bonus Feature

So Rachel sent these pictures today she took of Ryan the first time he saw the movie. It took her and the girls about a month to finish it. She wanted to keep it a secret all the way til the very end, so she and the girls had only worked on it when he was gone. And all those pictures are hand drawn so that took a good chunk of time. She finished it up and submitted it without him having a clue.




Pretty cute, right. [I can definitely get away with using the word cute, being married with two daughters everything is 'cute'] He had no idea and this was after it had been in the prelims for a couple of weeks and had nearly a hundred Facebook 'likes'. She knew that if it made it to the finals too many people would have to know for him not to find out. You can tell he's pretty tickled by it. Even with out winning (and you're helping make sure that doesn't happen), such a valiant effort should make a dad and father very pleased, and it has.
