The "G" is for Guts: An American Glider Pilot's Story

by S.W. Maynes

This book was amazing. I was moved to tears numerous times and was so glad I was able to learn more about Grandpa’s brother and about Glider Pilots and more about WWII in general. I really really enjoyed reading it and on so many levels… I didn’t know Charles went through so much when he was at war, I loved hearing how he was such a brave soldier and how he was such a fun a happy _{truly and genuinely} happy person.

You all need to hurry and read this book, it’s just terrific. A pure joy to read.

A review of "Dreamgirls (Full Screen Edition)"

Dreamgirls (Full Screen Edition)

This movie was pretty good. We found ourselves fast forwarding through some of the songs though… they were sooo looong. Maybe we didn’t love it because we were doing laundry though… could have had some effect on our mood. :)

A review of "The Good Shepherd (Combo HD DVD and Standard DVD) [HD DVD]" (rated 2 stars)

The Good Shepherd (Combo HD DVD and Standard DVD) [HD DVD]

I broke my “never rented an R movie” lifelong streak for this film. Larry King said this was the “best spy movie ever” the New York post said it was “the Godfather of all Spy Movies”!! It had Matt Damon in it AND it was titled “The Good Shepherd”... multiple reasons to rebel and rent it, I thought it would surely be worth it! But nooooooOOOO it had to go and be dumb. Dang it!!! And for the record E didn’t watch it w/ me, (the goody goody :). Love him.

Go Denzel! (rated 5 stars)

Deja Vu

by Tony Scott

We really liked this movie. It’s a very intense action packed federal agent/crime solving movie minus the bad language… can’t beat that. It’s great for all of you sci-fi movie lovers out there but still great for all the sci-fi movie avoiders too. (like I usually am :)

Do you want to see a happy movie? (rated 5 stars)

Lilies of the Field

Sidney Poitier: One Bright Light

Dad, Mom and I watched this together last week and it was just what I hoped it would be. We were all in tears by the end. If you’d like to get to know Sidney Poitier a little better, watch this one.

It’s wonderful.

Memoirs of a Geisha (Widescreen Two-Disc Special Edition)

The Pursuit of Happyness (Widescreen Edition)

by Gabriele Muccino

E and I watched this movie last night and we just loved it!
What a great and motivating movie.

Loved the Rubics Cube in it too. We have Rubics Cubes hanging around our house and we enjoy messing with them. E doesn’t believe me when I say I was able to solve them as a kid. I swore I could… but now I’m doubting myself. Do any of you remember seeing me solve it?

If not were you able to solve it… therefore making it possible that I could have solved it, too?

The Break-Up (Widescreen Edition)

by Peyton Reed

So we recieved this movie from netflix and watched it on Friday night. It made us laugh pretty hard during parts of it… the table singing scene was a crack up… and of course their big ol argument was hilarious because it was so true to the genders…

overall a pretty good show. I give it 3 stars.

What did you think?

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe Movie Tie-in Edition (rack) (Narnia)

by C. S. Lewis

I just finished reading this book to my girls yesterday. J (4 yrs) was wanting and asking for more pictures in the book while L (3 yrs) would often fall asleep on my shoulder missing the good parts including the great ending. I really enjoyed this book to them though and I loved it’s good message. CS Lewis is wonderful.

Great to watch for the dancing, not as great to watch for the acting of course, but still a fun movie.
