Please forgive me for neglecting you these past few weeks. It seems that I have just not had the time to visit with you lately. While you are a priority to me, my husband, kids, friends, and home will always come first. These are nearest and dearest to my heart :)
Now that things are more settled on the home front, I look forward to visiting with you, recording memories, and posting photographs once again! Thanks for remaining faithful and understanding!
Sincerely, Your Favorite Livin' La Vida Loca Mammasita

Last week we rented Curious George the movie, mainly for the 4 year old boy in the house, but all of us ended up finding our way to the couches and tuning in! Can I just tell you, we went bananas over that little George! We didn't realize it until the movie had begun, but Will Ferrell, Drew Barrymore, Dick Van Dyke and Eugene Levy all lend their voices and humor to characters in the show while Ron Howard is on the production end.
It is truly a kid's movie! I think preschoolers can relate to George quite well as he's basically a little kid himself. George is spunky and adventurous, constantly letting his imagination get the best of him, is very resourceful, gets into trouble, yet is never in any real danger! There are also several funny "one liners" that we, the parentals, appreciated! We liked the music well enough to buy the soundtrack for Cade and Gracie to listen to in the car. Jack Johnson is the main musical artist, and I would use the words: sunny, light, and feel good to describe his style.
So if you're like us and the CARS DVD is getting it's HUNDREDTH spin around the player go check out Curious George, I don't think you or your kiddos will be disappointed.
If you know me at all, then you know I LOVE to be organized! Weekly schedules, menu planning, and To Do lists are imbeded into my programming!!! I stumbled across a neat little gem that helps me keep even my blog surfing organized! This little site will help you keep track of ALL, that's right ALL the blogs you follow! Bloglines is a quick and easy way to check and see if the blogs you read have been updated. If they appear in BOLD print, that means that a new post is ready for you to read! I saved the link in my favorites file, which really makes it handy. Just click on the title above to get started. Or you can click here. Once you register (it's free) just click on the tab "FEEDS" and you can add all the links you like! It has saved me so much time.
CasitadeAlaniz looks forward to being on your list of faves :)
