I hate when I get confused in a movie.  We watched the movie,Immortals, last night and yep... I was lost. Marc really enjoys movies like that, so I knew he would enjoy it.  I think that was the main reason I said yes to wanting to watch this... But the, I got lost.  Happens every time. I tell you this, there was a good amount of blood in it, so if you are not one to watch that, this is not the movie for you... I did enjoy when I was watching... But just do not ask me to explain the movie to you. I liked seeing Kellan Lutz (as soon as I saw him, I was like.. I know him... but from where.. thanks to IMDB I figured it out)  This movie has a great cast and the scenes were captivating. Since I can not explain it to you, I will just leave you with the press release on it: Would I recommend it?  If you like those types, yes... If you are looking for something different, yes... If you have watched movies like this in the past and get lost (like me) then I would say no...

I am so excited and you just have no idea! I have blogged before about how we are WWE fans in this house... Well, get this...   Last time I was back home, I was told that the WWE would be headed to my hometown! What?   Albany, Georgia ?  The Good Life City?  (Home of Paula Deen, Luke Bryan, Deion Branch, Nancy Lopez, Ray Stevens, Ray Charles, Buster Posey and More!!!!) Anyways.... So, I found out that the WWE was headed here...  It is Smackdown... The Road to Wrestlemania! I really wanted to go, but I just could not justify a road trip down there right now... BUT, now I can... We are headed to Smackdown!!!!! It has been a LONG time since wrestling was in my hometown... I remember going when I was younger, but that was ages ago! Image from WWE I am just so excited that WWE Smackdown is headed our way!!!! Okay, let me tell you this... We took the boys to WWE events in Atlanta... The Georgia Dome holds around 71,000..... Phillips Arena holds around 1...

If you have been with me from the beginning, you may remember when I first blogged about Jodi Picoult .   I was in love with her writing style the moment I started reading the pages of Change Of Heart.  That was years ago... Not sure exactly when... But anyways, I knew she would be an author that I would follow.   I have read all but 2 of her books... Why have I not read them?  Honestly, I just have not had the extra money to go out and grab them yet... But, I will buy them soon.  One day... Honestly, I really will!  If you don't believe me, let me tell you why I will... Because I own ALL of her books!  Image from Amazon.com  On to the latest book.  I heard that Jodi Picoult had a new book coming out... Lone Wolf.  I was, of course, hopeful to get the opportunity to read it...  Then, one day... A package came in the mail.  I opened it up and was in heaven!  " The latest Jodi Picoult book is here!"  I sc...

Justin Bartha is just a cutie. He is actually a bit older than me, but he has a baby face and when I see him, I think of a young boy... Like a friend of my brother or something... I know, I know!!! I just finished watching The Rebound starring Justin Bartha and Catherine Zeta-Jones. Wow, it amazes me to think that he is the same guy that was in The Hangover and National Treasure!  I love knowing that he has the acting ability to handle the different roles that he has been in! The Rebound is no exception!  I hate to admit it, but I can not think of any movies she has been in, I think I am more familiar with her name because of her marriage... Where as with Justin, I know his movies... but nothing about his personal life. The start of the movie pulled me in with the soundtrack... and then as the movie started, I was wondering if this was going to be more of a comedy than a "romance comedy."  I loved how it played out... I loved seeing the dates that Catherine Zeta-Jo...

When you are teaching your children colors, do you sit there and work with all the different hues? Or do you just work with the primary colors? I know with Broxton, we started with the basics, red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple. Once he knew those, we started pointing out different shades of the colors.   See that orange car?  But then, he would argue that was not orange, as it wasn't the color he had learned! We tried to explain that there was more than one shade of a color, no matter if we were looking in books, riding down the street or coloring on the porch. Recently, I was sent a book that I knew was going to be great to work with Broxton! It is the Pantone : Colors from Abrams Appleseed! Now, let me tell you about this... I actually added it to the gift bag for Broxton's birthday this past weekend. Well, as soon as he opened it, his friend Garret grabbed it and started to have "school" going through all the colors!  I thought it w...
