I Think I did Pretty Good

I am not a baker, usually I burn, but with money being so tight I wanted to make my own cake for my daughter. This is the first time, I’ve ever taken a cake out of the pan. I think I did pretty good!  Oh and I only put her last name on there because we have to many letter candies.

Sharpay’s Fabulous Adventure Blu-ray and DVD Review

After a talent scout spots her performing with her dog Boi at a charity gala, Sharpay Evans (Tisdale) sets off for the bright lights of NYC, convinced instant fame and fortune are in the bag (designer bag, that is). But theatre’s a dog-eat-dog world, as she and Boi discover when they encounter the devious owner of a pampered pooch named “Countess” and a scheming Broadway starlet who will do anything to crush the competition. Fortunately, Sharpay also meets Peyton (Austin Butler), a handsome student filmmaker who finds Sharpay nearly as fascinating as she finds herself.

Bonus features:

  • Bloopers,
  • Austin Cam,
  • The Evolution of Sharpay.

***This movie reminds me a little of Legally Blonde, Sharpay is rich and spoiled, but when she is on her own she struggles and makes a positive impact on people.  Sharpay goes to NYC to find her dream of being on Broadway, she has big problems along the way like her dog not being allowed in her suite, fighting for roles and more. We really like this movie, it shows kids that when you believe in yourself you can accomplish your dreams and goals.

The official screening and reception was held on April 6, Here is some footage of the cast and friends talking about the movie.

Bop It! Review

Get ready to react fast! Turn on the Bop It game unit and get ready to bop, pull and twist your way to victory. For even more of a challenge, activate the microphone and shout it, too! Choose to play alone or invite your friends for a game of Party Bop-you’ll all have to use your knees, elbows, and hips to win! The better you get, the more skill levels you unlock, so think fast and be the Bop It master!

I have had a lot of fun playing with this toy, at the same time its takes a lot of focus.  You can play the regular version or shout it. I think regular is easier my high score was 25.

Great Gifts For Easter: Princess Celestia

Princess Celestia is a magical and beautiful pony who rules the kingdom of Equestria. All of the ponies in Ponyville look up to her. Help your Princess Celestia  pony figure rule her kingdom! This beautiful, electronic pony figure has all kinds of things to say to you, like I will light the way! and Lets fly to the castle! When you two are ready to soar, press the button to make her wings light up and move. Comb your princess friends pretty purple and pink ringlets and put in her barrettes to help her majesty always look her best and rule with justice and beauty!

I was first introduced to Princess Celestia at the NY Toy Fair(well besides my daughter seeing the commercials,).

We recently received this and my daughters are so excited. Princess Celestia is so beautiful, she can talk and her wings light up.  You can brush her hair and even design it with the hair accessories included with the pony. My kids were a little disappointed that the wings don’t move constantly. When you push the button on Princess Celestia she talks, lights up and her wings move once all at the same time.

Retail: $19.99
