The Warmth of Summer

June 24, 2012

Warmth of Summer.  Every year around the end of school the family gets a little giddy!  How can you not get giddy with the pending days of 100 degree heat?  No rain for months, bugs flying all around, fire ants crawling up your leg, sweating when you simply walk outside?  How about the heat of the car steering wheel after being parked in the mall parking lot?   But truthfully… I love summer.  I...

Big Miracle looks BIG

I am ready for Big Miracle.  I have been waiting to take the girls to see this soon.  Hopefully, we can get to the theater this week to enjoy it. A feel good movie with Drew Barrymore!  How can you get much better than that.  I have always thought that Drew was so cute.  She just has that look.  The kind of girl that you can believe in.  She is not super sexy but...

Hot Reese Witherspoon Means War

This weekend the rain came and knocked out all outdoor plans.  So this girls and I took to the movie screen!  We ended up sitting in on the new Reese Witherspoon movie, This Means War. Honestly, I wasn’t very impressed with this movie.  The trailer looks great.  Funny jokes, wild fights, laughable moments.  Especially when Chris Pine is opening a bottle of wine and a tranq dart hits him in the neck.  That cracks...

Back by popular demand!! More Gina Carano

As you can read by this post about Gina Carano we all are beginning to appreciate the beauty and power of Gina.  This past Friday, a buddy and I stopped after work at the Silverado movie theatre to catch Carano’s new movie, Haywire.  Usually Fridays are meant for happy hour at the local pub.  A few beers, a few laughs, rewinding the entire stress filled week with a buddy or 5 is the way...

The Christmas Break is time to catch a few movies!

Trena and I wrestle with family traditions often.  I have never really stopped to count the number of traditions that we follow but I would be willing to bet you Brooke or Becca could count them in a heartbeat.  One thing that we have successfully instilled into our children is the fact family comes first. I heard a line in a movie today from, We Bought a Zoo… “I am the end of the...

Netflix versus Redbox

A couple of weeks ago I decided to give Redbox a try.  I wrote a nice article on the pros and cons of Redbox and even still have it in my “drafts” section of posts.  Almost complete and ready to go… Today I hear that Netflix is raising their rates.  I can not think of a worse time for a company selling luxury/extra items could choose to raise their prices.  We have been off...

High School Wild Field Trips

Surfing around reading other blogs, I stopped at a guy’s page who wrote a great movie review 25 years too late, About Writing .  He finally got around to viewing one of the best all time movies, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.  Now this movie is one of my all time favorites.  As I said on this guy’s blog, I spent my high school life trying to be Ferris Bueller mixed with Alex P. Keaton from Family...

Crack in the view

Later I’ll post an update about the great 4th of July celebrations we celebrated but I just couldn’t wait to upload this picture for a few family members that were cracking up with me last night. We staked out this great spot to set up our golf cart and chairs to watch the laser light show… Nobody was infront of us and we could see all down the fairway of the 18th hole to...
