The Movie "42" - Story of Jackie Robinson

Saturday night Gracie had a sleepover so I took Jacob to see the movie "42" about the legendary baseball player "Jackie Robinson".  It was a GREAT movie...I definately give the movie 2 thumbs up. The movie was rated PG-13 and YES, there was the use of the "N" word throughout the movie...I explained all this to my 11 year old son prior to going to to see the movie and he understood that back during that time period the use of that word was very "common".  I must say there were times during the movie I found myself cringing in my seat and actually getting "angry" but I had to remind myself how things were back then and how "ingorant" people were. My dear friend Pat came along and she said she really enjoyed the movie as well.  I asked Jake what he thought and he said it was "awesome" - I do agree!

Disney on Ice - April 12, 2013

I took Gracie to see another Disney on Ice show at the Giant Center this past Friday evening. We had great seats. While sitting in my law firm's suite is always nice (anything "free" is nice) I have to say buying the tickets and sitting a few rows from the ice was totally worth the money and it was a great show (probably one of the best shows we've gone to and we've been to many shows).  Below are some pics of our night out.  The show was geared for both girls/boys and had performances for the following Disney movies Cars, Aeriel, Tinkerbell and Toy Story 3.  Toy Story 3 was my favorite part of the show but I do believe I spent a good deal of time just staring at the little boys/girls and enjoying the looks on their faces as they saw their favorite Disney characters comes to life on the ice.  It was a great evening out with my daughter.

Lil' George - First Formal Job Interview

Little George had his first "formal" job interview (for an intership) last week. I asked him to text me a pic of him in his suit since he would'nt be home to see him before he left. He looked handsome (just like I thought he would!).
