Over the holiday break we watched a lot of movies. Here are some of my thoughts about each one.
1. Kung Fu Panda: so awesome!!! this is definitely one we will purchase to have for our collection. i love it when they have a moral that we can teach our children or remind the adults with.
2. Wall-e: i thought this was a cute flick although with a political message attached but it wasn't as blatant as say Happy Feet was. it was amazing how so much time could go by without anyone saying anything.
3. Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed- this was a great film and something that made us think and have discussions during and after the movie. It will make you mad, sad, happy and cry. I highly suggest you watch it.
4. Get Smart: we loved it! This will also be going in our collection.
I know I am forgetting a movie or two but we love going to the Red Box and getting new movies for just a $1. We've recently starting using the online reserve feature which makes it that much easier to get.
We also went to see Twilight with our neighbors for a date night. Poor Jason got dragged along but we were both surprised that it was better than we thought but still it was okay. I think the actress who played Bela and the actor who played Edward did a great job. Hopefully when the second movie comes out they will improve on make-up and wigs. It was a bit long and boring at times. Not sure if this lends itselt totally well to the big screen.
I convinced my husband to come out with me on Black Friday because I had never been before. We met my sister-in-law Stacy at Tai Pan Trading at 6:35am. Wow. Yes, it was early. We did a little shopping there and then proceeded to Shopko, Wal-Mart and then Sam's Club. We picked up a few Christmas gifts and some decorations for the home. Then while he went disc golfing with the boys I hit Ben Franklin's and Michael's for some fun with the coupons for 50% off on one item. I may do this again next year. It was fun watching the crazy people too!
