      The Battle of the Sexes – limited release on September 22nd    In the wake of the sexual revolution and the rise of the women’s movement, the 1973 tennis match between women’s world champion Billie Jean King (Emma Stone) and ex-men’s-champ and serial hustler Bobby Riggs (Steve Carell) was billed as the BATTLE OF THE SEXES and became one of the most watched televised sports events of all time, reaching 90 million viewers around the world.  As the rivalry between King and Riggs kicked into high gear, off-court each was fighting more personal and complex battles.  The fiercely private King was not only championing for equality, but also struggling to…

    Experience The Disney Social Media Mom “On-The-Road” Conference With Me!

    September 1, 2017 /

      A few weeks ago I received some Pixie Dust from the crew over at Disney Moms.  They are the group that put on the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration On-The-Road Conferences that are held a couple times a year in various spots across the country.  I always enjoy going to these conferences because it just brings out the kid in me (doesn’t Disneyland do that to everyone?!) and also to hear about the cool things happening with Disney.   We also heard from social media industry experts such as Erin Glover, who is an editor for the Disney Parks Blog and Megan Sayers Chapman from Babble who provided wonderful advice to…

    August 12, 2017 /

        Today is the day when The NUT JOB 2: Nutty by Nature comes out!  You just might want to take the kids this weekend and check it out.  We really enjoyed this movie and were laughing along with the kids.  The cast in The NUT JOB 2 are amazing and I don’t think you can go wrong with Will Arnett as the lead character.  In The NUT JOB 2, Surly Squirell (Will Arnett) and the gang are back.  We are once again in Oakton where the evil mayor has decided to bulldoze Liberty Park and build a dangerous amusement park in its place.  Surly and his ragtag group of animal friends…
