This Frugal Family

I love Thor: Love and Thunder.  My family sat and watched not too long ago, and we all really enjoyed it.  As an avid Thor fan, my 11 year old, son, sat through the entire movie.  He usually watches about 1/4 of a movie before he heads back to his room, but not this time. Marvel Studios’ Thor: Love and Thunder finds the God of Thunder (Chris Hemsworth) on a journey unlike anything he’s ever faced – one of self-discovery. But his efforts are interrupted by a galactic killer known as Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), who seeks the extinction of the gods. To combat the threat, Thor enlists the help of King Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi) and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), who – to Thor’s surprise – inexplicably wields his magical hammer, Mjolnir, as the Mighty Thor. Together, they embark upon a harrowing cosmic adventure to uncover the mystery of the God Butcher’s vengeance and stop him before it’s too late. Make sure you keep your eyes open for the chance to own Thor: Love and Thunder.  It is being released on Tuesday, September 27, 2022. You will love it, if you are into Superhero…

I can’t go out much, because I deal with Panic Disorder.  And, well, Valentine’s Day, and all the people, I couldn’t go out.  So, we had a Valentine’s Date at home, with Crated With Love.  It was so special.  We started with the book that came with Crated With Love, so we knew what to do.  Our box was Our Sweetheart Safari.  It was so much fun, and super cute! The book has challenges in it, so Challenge One was “Our Safari Skills”, Challenge Two:  “Lions, Tigers and Bears”, Challenge Three:  “Jungle River Excursion”, Challenge Four:  “Our Goals Journal”.  These are so cute, and so fun to do with the person you love, for a special day, or any day.  We just picked Valentine’s Day, because my spouse knew I couldn’t be around all those people. Why a Date Night, you may ask, well here’s the answer found on Crated With Love: Couples that have dedicated “couple time” at least once a week are 3.5 times more likely to classify their marriage as “very happy” compared to those couples who enjoy less quality time together. My daughter, age 21, and her boyfriend, age 22, even asked if they could borrow…

We, in our household, love the Crated With Love Subscription Box.  It’s so great to get fun activities, to share with each other, on a monthly basis.  And, having two kids, ages 20 & 6, this is perfect for us.  The kids go for dinner, and we have “Date Night”. This month, it all started with a Puzzle, then with a few other activities.  The puzzle was quite challenging, but got us thinking.  Which, once a month, we need this.  It was a wonderful time, with my wonderful spouse. This really was a great night.  And, I subscribed for only $26.99 a month.  There are bigger boxes, but we went with the middle box, to start off with.  We have access to buy additional items, at a discounted price, if we’d like.  And there is an even more advanced box, for $59.99, one time cost. You will really enjoy your date night, like we did.  It gets you acquainted with each other again.  And, finding Likes and Dislikes. We’ve been together for 13 years, and Stephanie already had a young daughter when we met.  Now we have a young son.  So a date night, once a month, is a great thing.  And…
