This Frugal Family

From Disney and visionary director Tim Burton, the all-new grand live-action adventure DUMBO expands on the beloved classic story where differences are celebrated, family is cherished and dreams take flight. Circus owner Max Medici (Danny DeVito) enlists former star Holt Farrier (Colin Farrell) and his children Milly (Nico Parker) and Joe (Finley Hobbins) to care for a newborn elephant whose oversized ears make him a laughingstock in an already struggling circus. But when they discover that Dumbo can fly, the circus makes an incredible comeback, attracting persuasive entrepreneur V.A. Vandevere (Michael Keaton), who recruits the peculiar pachyderm for his newest, larger-than-life entertainment venture, Dreamland. Dumbo soars to new heights alongside a charming and spectacular aerial artist, Colette Marchant (Eva Green), until Holt learns that beneath its shiny veneer, Dreamland is full of dark secrets.   Like DUMBO on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DisneyDumbo/ Follow DUMBO on Twitter: https://twitter.com/dumbo Follow DUMBO on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dumbo/ Visit the official DUMBO website here: https://disney.com/dumbo DUMBO opens in theatres everywhere on March 29, 2019!        

Alex & Me Alex & Me is a great film.  It showed my 7 year old he could overcome a lot.  He really enjoyed watching it, as did my daughter.  This film is so fascinating.  We loved watching it, as a family.  Even the man of the house got into watching it. Teenager Reagan Willis has one dream – to play soccer like her hero, Alex Morgan.  Her bedroom is a shrine to all things Alex, including a life-size poster of the Olympic gold medalist.  Yet in the Willis house, Reagan lives in the shadow of her prep football superstar brother, Logan.  When Reagan fails to make the cut of the premiere local soccer club team and is humiliated by her rival Claire, she’s certain her ship has sailed.  But after accidentally hitting her head, Reagan’s poster of Alex Morgan suddenly comes to life and everything changes.   You will be touched by this film, and your child will realize that dreams can come true. I’ll be giving a copy away, soon! Connect with Alex & Me:  Shop     |     Twitter     |     facebook Warner Bros. Home Entertainment provided me with a free copy of the DVD I reviewed in this Blog…

I love Thirty-One.  Their bags are perfect.  We are going on an overnight stay, and the In The Clear Tote is the perfect size for mine and my spouse’s clothes.  It’s so big, and spacious.  I could probably even fit my 7 year old’s clothes in it.  There’s even a hidden pocket, in the tote, to keep my pills in.  This is great!This bag, is by far, the best bag I’ve received.  I love Thirty-One, and can’t stress that enough.  In The Clear Tote is going to be the bag of the week.  When I take it with me, to the waterpark, everyone will envy it.  I’ll love telling them where to get their bag at. I also received The Getaway Tote.  My sister is flying to Myrtle Beach, and this is her bag, for the plane.  It’s the perfect size, to get on flight, and she will be able to put all the necessities in it.  I love this bag, as well.  However, she asked me to use it, so how could I say no?  The size is 14.75″H x 13.75″L x 6″D, which will be great to put her phone, ipad, etc. in. I also received the Pinch Top…

I love Roto Rooter, and since I started using it, I haven’t had to call a plumber.  We used to get back ups all the time, now, with Roto Rooter, we no longer do.  This stuff is powerful, and really works.  My husband loves how quick it works. Roto Rooter has 25% more active ingredients, and gets the job done.  I’m so happy that I no longer have to call someone to unclog our drains.  With both, myself, and my daughter, having long hair, that falls out, it was getting expensive for us to call someone.  And, now we just clean the drains ourselves.  This makes life so much easier. Also, the septic system treatment works wonders, for our septic system.  It’s never been so perfect.  I love how it cleans out the system, not having to call one of those big trucks in to clean up the mess.  I’ve never been happier with a line of products. The Gel Clog Remover just got slime out of my sink, that my 7 year old thought would be fun to play with in the sink.  Well, it got stuck, and so we used the Gel Clog Remover to get it out. There…
