Every year during the holidays, I like to play Christmas music and watch holiday themed-movies to get into the spirit. I want to spread the tradition to my children so they are the same way, especially my four year old. During the past two weeks, she’s seen the same two movies almost daily. I think I know every line and so does she. The first one is Santa Buddies. Both of my daughters really enjoyed this one because they love dogs and of course, Christmas. It’s about a dog named Puppy … [Read more...]

Movies that are a Must-See for the Whole Family.
December 7, 2009 by 1 Comment
Over the thanksgiving break, my family and I went on a movie watching frenzy. The two movies that we all loved was the Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian with Ben Stiller and Imagine That with Eddie Murphy. They were both great family movies that everyone will enjoy, especially if you’re a family that has a HUGE imagination, like ours. Imagine That is a movie full of imagination (hence the word), mishaps and fantasy. The father (Eddie Murphy) is a very busy, competitive money … [Read more...]

Sometimes You Have To Give In

I saw New Moon yesterday with my sister and my daughter. I'm not really a Twilight fan, unlike my daughter but I wanted to make her happy so I took her. Ever since she saw the previews, she's hinted to me that she really wanted to go and see it. She's a huge book reader and read the book and loved it so she is definitely a huge fan. I waited to see Twilight on DVD because I heard mixed reviews on the movie and I'm so glad I waited because it wasn't all that great. I posted about the … [Read more...]
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

This has to be one of the best Thanksgivings ever for my family and I. There were no recipe mishaps (had many of those), every dish was made with love and was not rushed (had many of those too) and for the first time my husband helped me with almost every dish we made. Plus, no drama. That in itself, is the best thing in the world. I'm truly blessed. At first I thought we were going to be stressed out because we had so many dishes planned but once I wrote everything out on a piece of … [Read more...]

Music Ace Deluxe | Review & Giveaway
November 24, 2009 by 32 Comments
A couple of months ago, I was sent the Music Ace Deluxe to review. I decided to review it because my daughter has been playing the violin for 2 years now and she loves it. Even though she is not a beginner violin player, she wanted to add another instrument so I thought this would be perfect. She's thinking of learning how to play the clarinet. When I was in junior high school, I played the clarinet and violin and I loved it. Music was my favorite subject. I would count the minutes until … [Read more...]
