by 12 Comments
Last week my husband and I decided that it was time to open our home to a dog again. It had been several years since our beloved Daisy May Wildflower passed and now that Emma and Ethan were older, they were asking for one. We knew they were finally at an age to help take care of one.

Big Hero 6 on Blu-Ray/DVD | 2015 Best Animated Feature!
by 4 Comments
Big Hero 6 was a big winner the Academy Awards, taking home the gold for Best Animated Feature! After watching it with my family, I understand why.

After his brother's death, Hiro fought depression and lost motivation. That is, until Baymax (Hiro's … [Read more...]
