This is not a sponsored post, but I did want to share with you.   My Grandaddy has Alzheimer's.  Let me just tell you, this disease SUCKS. I am sorry, this is not a happy post, but like I said... I wanted to share it with you. If you were around ages ago, I posted when my grandparents met Broxton for the first time ... The joy and love...  I tell you, when it comes to family, I am totally spoiled with a wonderful family that is full of love.  Talk about being lucky...   Until Alzheimer's comes in and messes things up.

Karate Kid meets Fast and Furious in Brick Mansions.  I wanted to watch it, since it had Paul Walker in it and I just love him...  (Rest in Peace, hate that such a great actor is gone.)  I guess this was the last movie he finished filming before he died...  Anyways... I was excited to see this movie and it did not disappoint.  I watched it after putting Broxton to bed and I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.  I was a bit confused in the start, since I did not read the synopsis beforehand...  I tell you, I saw "PAUL WALKER" and that was all it took...   The movie starts with Paul Walker in a meeting with a few big wigs.. but quickly we head to following "Lino" as he jumps...
