JR & BabyPom: It's officially summer! BOL! That means we're out exploring our new backyard pretty much all the time. Only problem is where we've moved too. Mom's uncle joked, "Do you know what the second official bird is in MN?"

Disney Pixar's Monsters University Review

I've waited 11 years for this to happen. I'm talking about Monsters University. Excitement brewed in me as I sat waiting anxiously for what was to come. Back in the days when there was an energy crisis, we needed to enlist the help of potential future scarers. No joke, our movie was powered by scream power. Screams of attendees rocked our theater to get the movie started.

From Fat to Fit! Training to be Super Buddies! #K9Kamp

JR & BabyPom: It's that time of year again. Mommy says we've put on some weight and it's probably true. We get spoiled with grandpa and grandma. She always says being chubby is no good for our subluxating patellas, so we're all signed up for K9 Kamp again, hosted by our buddies Peggy's Pet Place and Kol's Notes. This year's challenge is a simple one, up your activities by 30 minutes 3-4 times a week.

This week's Mission Giveaway features a pretty wicked fashion item and a favorite of mine...SHOES! Can you imagine creating your own custom shoes, putting your own design on them and wearing them forever?! These are neat because you can change your shoe cover and keep the same shoe soles. It just zips on and off! I may just need to investigate these a bit more.

Blogger turned fashion designer? Sort of... #WhoopTee US 07/01

Branding is an important part of one's blog. Even before branding my blog, I've loved personalization. It adds that special touch, that uniqueness that's only yours. WhoopTee is one of those sites that offers a variety of custom T-shirts. You can create your unique logo and put it on different types of tees, sweaters, or even hoodies.

Designs fit for a fashion queen and more #free downloads! #DisneyOz

With the June 11th release of Disney's OZ THE GREAT AND POWERFUL on Blu-ray Combo Pack nearing us, I've been seeing lots of commercials on TV. I keep thinking to myself, I must get a copy of that OST because the music in the background is just so whimsical and beautiful. Totally something I could sit back and enjoy a glass of red wine with while holding my pups. As if that's any different than any other day...they've currently taken control of my lap and left arm as I type. JR has decided to nest in my lap and BabyPom is doing his usual sleep on mommy's arm whilst standing.

I love my animated movies just as much as any other movie. I can't say I've ever really considered animation just for kids. Perhaps, I'm just a big kid at heart.

Can you believe Monsters University is almost here! I'm really looking forward to my first screening in my new city and as fate would have it, it's Monsters University! Whoot whoot! In serious excitement and anticipation, I bring to you this #MonstersU round up. I just spent a good 15 minutes playing the Monsters U Beastly Breakfast Blitz game on the Milk Mustache site. OMG, it is seriously addicting. Tips for it include using your direction keys, down to make the breakfast items and pick it up. Up to deliver. LOL, I kept using my mouse to click and was failing miserably to begin with.
