Classic Movies

Most people that know me know that I love the old classic movies.

Next month on TCM they are going to show Family Classics on each Sunday.

Here is the link to the schedule if anyone else is interested. http://www.tcm.com/2008/tcmpresents/index.jsp

They have some of my favorites on the schedule. Swiss Family Robinson, The Parent Trap, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, The Apple Dumpling Gang, The Love Bug, etc.

UNO Party

I tried to get people together to have an UNO Party last night. It didn't quite turn out the way that I planned. We planned one hand of UNO and then switched to Guitar Hero World Tour and then Samba De Amigo. The one hand of UNO seemed to go on forever. (didn't take long to remind us why we don't play UNO more often)

Disney on Ice

Last week I managed to get tickets to Disney on Ice. Me and Missy took Jake and Zoe. They loved it.

Jake's current favorite seems to be Woody and Buzz Lightyear. He got so excited when they came out on the ice.

Zoe's favorites of course. They had all the princesses except for Sleeping Beauty. We thought that was a bit weird. They had Cinderella, Belle, Snow White, Mulan, Ariel, and even Pocahontas but now Aurora.

The original disney character are still my favorite. I love Goofy and Chip and Dale.

They did a whole "It's a Small World" number.

The toy soldier were pretty impressive too.

Dad Update

First of all, I think I might owe a few apologies to some of my friends with blogs. I know I've teased a few of you about not regularly updating. Now that I have created my own, I can see just how hard it is to keep updating.

Update on my dad: He had open heart surgery last Thurs to repair a faulty valve. They were able to make the repair. It took about 5 hours for the surgery. He is recovering quickly. They released him from the hospital this morning. He is home and trying to take it easy.
