Country Strong


Finally watched this movie...it's been on the Netflix list for a while...haha. It was an interesting movie, but it moved a little slow for me. Definitely wasn't expecting the ending (well until the end ha ha)! The songs are pretty good too and of course I'm a fan of Garrett Hedlund (Friday Night Lights and Four Brothers) and Leighton Meester (Gossip Girl anyone? or am I the only one who still watches it??).

I know Tim McGraw has made a couple of movies now, but I feel as if he plays the same character in all of them. I'm ready for him to change it up a bit. Oh...a little fun fact Tim McGraw and Garrett Hedlund were in Friday Night Lights together as father and son.

Padre's Birthday!


How cute is that monkey?!?!

The doily is one of the cards from the wild card cartridge. The happy birthday and monkey are both stamps...I get so excited to use new stamps. Inside of the card read..."you're never too old to be monkeying around" cheesey I know...ha ha


This is how I wrapped his gift...very incognito if I do say so myself. Do you have any idea what it is?!?!

Oreo Bread Pudding


What is that you might ask? Why it's Oreo bread pudding of course!

If you've never heard of it, don't fret, neither had I until about 3 weeks ago. I think I've had regular bread pudding all of twice in my life and wasn't impressed. However, this looked so good at the cafe I was at with my Aunts that we had to get it!

It was deeeeelicious!

Since then I've been thinking about it and how I want to eat it again, so I did a little research and found this recipe from Kraft and decided to try it. Below is it right out of the oven all nice and warm...yum!

The Change Up


This is definitely a R rated movie...ha ha. Was it funny? You bet. It had dirty humor, nerdy humor and some serious moments. All in all it was good for some laughs.

Has anyone else seen it? What did you think?

Harry Potter & the Deathly Hollows part 2




What a good way to end the series! I'm a HP fan only by the movies, but one day I plan on reading the books...ha ha. If you're a fan of the movies as well, I'm sure you've already seen the movie and know how awesome it is, but if you haven't seen the movies or just one or two of them, I reccomend having a HP marathon! FUN!
