About Me

My photo
Mysteries, polka dots, California Rolls, TJ Maxx, cozy blankets, rainy days and getting the first spoonful of peanut butter out of the jar make me smile. Spiders, rude people, cold fingers and toes, baby leashes, people that don't wrap their packages before going to the Post Office, poison ivy and Math (pretty much all of it) make me want to scream. My perfect day would be spent with my wonderful husband and sweet girls- watching movies in our jammies! Of course, having the movie theater to ourselves would be great, too. Please pass the popcorn and M&M's.:) I am saved by the grace of God. He is my constant companion and hears my every prayer. What a blessing! I'd love to hear from you!

Matinees and Ice Cream

My friend, Roxanne, and I took our kids to go see "Nim's Island" yesterday.  We had the theater all to ourselves!  We all really enjoyed the book and wanted to see what the movie had to offer.  I have to say that it was pretty cute.  The books are always better, but the movie was enjoyable and fun, too, which is not always the case.  Abigail Breslin is adorable, the animals are entertaining and the island is beautiful.  Jodie Foster was wonderful, as always.  If you need a break from the heat (we turned on our air conditioning today) take your family to see "Nim's Island."  Of course, you should really read the book first- it was excellent!
