Opening Day

In honor of opening day (GO CARDS!),
and because I don't have my cruise pics ready to post yet,
I am giving you my top 5 all-time favorite baseball movies.
If you haven't seen them,
I highly recommend checking them out.
Drum roll please...

Let me know if I left any out that are worth watching.

Upcoming Movies

There are two movies set to hit theaters soon,
one in April and the other in September.
If more movies like these were made,
we would probably go more often.

The first, Soul Surfer, is based on the story of Bethany Hamilton,
a champion surfer who lost her arm in a shark attack at the age of 13.
Carrie Underwood plays the part of Bethany's youth leader.

The second, Courageous,
is from the makers of Facing the Giants and Fireproof.
The actors in Courageous are all members
of Sherwood Baptist Church in Georgia.


So, watch the trailers and mark your calendars.
If these movies are supported, more of them will be made!

Is it March Already?

I really haven't had a lot to post about. I've just been packing boxes to clear some clutter in the hopes of moving closer to Carlie's school at some point.
Every time I pack a box, we seem to have even more stuff.
Don't know how that works exactly.
I think the kids just keep dragging out "new" toys they haven't seen in ages.

I've also been getting clothes ready for the trip, buying, exchanging, returning.
Looks like the kids will be dressed 10x more stylish than we will be.
So it goes.

After hearing fantastic reviews from my esteemed professor at the Limbaugh Institute of Advanced Conservative Studies (where I am working on a PhD), we started watching this...

I'm not really sure if I like it or not.
The music is pretty cool though as are the fashions.
The lead character

is a total pig!
Leads quite the double life.
I can't think of one redeeming quality this guy has.
Come to think of it, not one character on this show really has any.

We have only seen the first three episodes,
so maybe things will change and half the characters
will kick their cancer stick habit and develop some morals,
but I'm not holding my breath.
