New DreamWorks Pictures' "Need for Speed" Trailer

Image
DreamWorks Pictures’ “Need for Speed” marks an exciting return to the great car culture films of the 1960s and ’70s, when the authenticity of the world brought a new level of intensity to the action on-screen. Tapping into what makes the American myth of the open road so appealing, the story chronicles a near-impossible cross-country journey for our heroes  —  one that begins as a mission for revenge, but proves to be one of redemption. Based on the most successful racing video game franchise ever with over 140 million copies sold, "Need for Speed" captures the freedom and excitement of the game in a real-world setting, while bringing to life the passion for the road that has made our love of cars so timeless. The film centers around Tobey Marshall (Aaron Paul), a blue-collar mechanic who races muscle cars on the side in an unsanctioned street-racing circuit. Struggling to keep his family-owned garage afloat, he reluctantly partners with the wealthy and arrogant ex-N

{Review} Verizon Wireless Samsung Galaxy Camera™ #vzwmidwest

Image
I participated in a campaign on behalf of Verizon Wireless and Samsung. I was loaned a product sample, that facilitated my review. My family and I headed out to see the many beautiful sights downtown, and to see if the  Samsung Galaxy Camera ™   could keep up with our two very busy boys. I have a big bulky DSLR camera and the weight of it alone, makes it a challenge to chase after our kids. In my quest to find a camera that meets the demands of a quick action shot, is light weight, and has the many features that make sharing pictures on social media almost instant; I knew that the  Samsung Galaxy Camera ™  was up for the challenge! I have wanted to try this camera, ever since I saw it at our local Verizon Wireless store!  It was a breeze to point and shoot, and capture some amazing shots! The  Samsung Galaxy Camera ™   does all of the "thinking," so that we could focus on making memories, verse trying to fiddle with settings and waiting for the perfect setup. I love

From Disney comes “Maleficent”—the untold story of Disney’s most iconicvillain from the 1959 classic “Sleeping Beauty.” A beautiful, pure-hearted young woman, Maleficent has an idyllic life growing up in a peaceable forest kingdom, until one day when an invading army threatens the harmony of the land. Maleficent rises to be the land’s fiercest protector, but she ultimately suffers a ruthless betrayal—an act that begins to turn her pure heart to stone. Bent on revenge, Maleficent faces an epic battle with the invading king’s successor and, as a result, places a curse upon his newborn infant Aurora.

Mike & Ryan's Baptism

Image
It might have been seven years later than when we asked, but we were so honored that Dawn M. and Ryan G. agreed to still be Mike and Ryan's Godparents! Both of these wonderful people, from different stages of our lives, mean so very much to us and our children! It takes two very special people to agree to something before Michael was even born, and once called many years later, laugh and tell us it was way over due! Not only that, but to then get an additional Godson in the deal...these two are fantastic inside and out!? The day was simple, filled with love, surrounded by family, brought chuckles when an exorcism was needed, and ended with delicious food! Thank you to all who celebrated with our two boys!

Hallmark Hall of Fame presents Christmas In Conway

Image
Sunday, December 01, 2013 on ABC To the folks in Conway, South Carolina, Duncan Mayor is a very cranky guy. To “my sweet girl” – his wife, Suzy – he’s a doting pussycat. But Suzy is just home from the hospital and cared for 24/7 by nurse Natalie, whom Duncan tries his best to ignore. Duncan decides the best medicine Suzy could possibly have – and a Christmas present she’ll never forget -- is a ride on a real Ferris wheel, set up in their own back yard. Why a Ferris wheel? Because it was while riding one many moons ago that Duncan asked Suzy to marry him. Where to find a 45-foot-high used Ferris wheel? Duncan strikes gold in an abandoned amusement park, presided over by a lonely ex-carnival worker -- Henry. Assembling the mechanical monstrosity is not exactly a one-man job. Duncan gets a crucial assist from Tommy, a former student of Suzy’s, who is deeply in her debt. He’s become a successful landscape designer after a troubled youth; it was Suzy who set him straight. M
