F9 - The Fast Saga - #review

 Movie nights are always a good time around here.  With the busyness of the week, it is nice to slow down and try to enjoy time together.  Unfortunately, the boy was mad at me (sorry, you have to do all of your homework!)  and the girl was too busy with playing with her toys.  I wanted to see what was going on with the Fast and Furious movies, so when I had the chance to check out F9 - The Fast Saga , I jumped on it!    I will admit, I have not watched all of them and I for sure have not seen them in order, but I will say that when one is on, I will stop and watch it.  The cast is always great and they get the adrenaline pumping with the action!  This was no exception. I liked how this particular movie gave us a little on the background of Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) .  Brian O'Conner (Paul Walker) was my favorite character, with Dom coming in next.  As I watched this one, I thought it would be great to see how each of the characters background story plays out on all of where they are

 Another great book was in our mailbox!!!!   We were sent The Mystery of Miss Hills' Missing Glasses for review and as soon as Savannah saw it, we had to jump on the couch and dive on in!   As we took turns reading the pages (She could have read the whole thing, but she was in a hurry so we took turns!) we were trying to figure out where the glasses would be found.  Savannah loved looking at the pictures going along and seeing the facial expressions of the kids.  Once we finished the book, Savannah wanted to go back through it again and look at the pages, the words, the illustrations.  It was a great book and one we will enjoy adding to our library!   FTC Compliant Review Policy:  The product(s) featured in this review were provided free of cost to me by the manufacturer or representing PR agency for the sole purpose of product testing.
