    Did We Really Just Interview Tarzan? Out in Theaters Friday!

    June 30, 2016 /

      THE LEGEND OF TARZAN – IN THEATERS FRIDAY Did I really just interview Tarzan? That is what I said to myself as I walked out of a suite at The Beverly Hills Hilton last week still in a daze from taking a selfie with Tarzan!  From Warner Bros. Pictures and Village Roadshow Pictures comes the action adventure “The Legend of Tarzan,” starring Alexander Skarsgård (HBO’s “True Blood”) as the legendary character created by Edgar Rice Burroughs.     The night before my husband and I drove up to Hollywood to check out an early screening of Legend of Tarzan and both of us really enjoyed it! We didn’t have…

    TROLLS – FIND YOUR HAPPY PLACE NOVEMBER 4 From the creators of Shrek comes the most smart, funny, irreverent animated comedy of the year, DreamWorks’ Trolls.  This holiday season, enter a colorful, wondrous world populated by hilariously unforgettable characters and discover the story of the overly optimistic Trolls, with a constant song on their lips, and the comically pessimistic Bergens, who are only happy when they have trolls in their stomach.  Featuring original music from Justin Timberlake, and soon-to-be classic mash-ups of songs from other popular artists, the film stars the voice talents of Anna Kendrick, Justin Timberlake, Russell Brand, James Corden, Kunal Nayyar, Ron Funches, Icona Pop, Gwen Stefani,…

    Useful Tips for Making Moving Less Stressful

    June 29, 2016 /

    Moving day can be so stressful!  Our family is looking to possibly make a move in the near future so I searched for some helpful moving tips as I know there must be a better way to move than the way we have done it in the past.  You know, where some items get shoved into a box with no labeling and are still sitting in your hall closet after ten years.  Not saying that is what we did (yeah, right). But throughout the years I have come across some great tips that will help with moving day.     Have each family member pack an overnight bag with their…
