A Christmas Wedding Tail - Great movie for all ages, All season long



 With a family of four small children and a husband that is an avid action movie fan its sometimes hard to get everyone together and agree on a "family" movie to watch together. We got the chance to watch  A Christmas Wedding Tail shortly after Christmas and EVERYONE watched it together and no-one ended up disappointed. It gave hubby and I a chance to enjoy a love story and since it had Tom Arnold in it he agreed to watch while our toddlers just loved watching the "woof-woofs"! Because of the girl's love for dogs we have had to watch it 3 more times since then which i have no problem with-its a hallmak movie and I think its worthy of multiple views even after Christmas itself has come and gone! It would be a great movie to still purchase or at least to grab to have for next holiday season to view with your family (they normally run deals on seasonal type movies so its better to get them sooner rather than later) I know we will be watching it a few more times before I could put it away with the rest of the Christmas movies!  

A Christmas Wedding Tail - About the Movie: A Christmas Wedding Tail is the story of a pair of passionate pooches, Labrador Rusty and Poodle Cheri, who fall head-over-tails in love. The two smitten pups conspire to get their respective owners, Susan and Jake to wed. Despite Susan’s and Jake’s compatibility, their new blended family turns out to be more than Rusty and Cheri had bargained for. Now, the calculating canines must channel their pooch powers to keep their family from ending up in the dog house.
Starring Jennie Garth, Brad Rowe & Tom Arnold, and voice talents Jay Mohr and Nikki Cox.

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Space Adventure released November 8th!


        With 3 children between the ages of 2-5 I watch a lot of "preschool" shows and one of our daily ones is Disney's Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. I never watched it as a kid myself but have come to like it  and watch it with the girls who always seem to love helping Mickey figure out his problems! Space Adventure is as educational and fun as the TV series I watch everyday and it met my expectations as always! Space topics are hard enough to explain to an adult let alone a 2 year old and I thought Mickey and his friends did a great job of introducing my toddlers to it! Along the way the gang also meets some new friends-(my girls were fasinated with the idea of aliens!) and overcome many new obstacles with the help of your child! The combo pack also came with glow-in-the-dark space-themed stickers that the girls decided to put on poster board to make their own "space station" they use to teach me about space! Anything to do with stickers is fun in our house so finding them in with our movie was like an extra "bonus"- the girls loved using them and they even shared! Since watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Space Adventure my girls can't stop talking about the aliens, the moon and stars, what space is and saturn's giant rings! Even on days they don't watch the movie this happens which tells me the new stuff they learned stuck with them which is a great thing to see and makes the movie worth the money because my kids had fun watching it and leaned so much at the same time!
It was released on Novemeber 8th so go get your copy today!  Its suggested retail price for the 2 disc DVD and digital copy combo pack is $19.99 U.S. $24.99 Canada
 Its rated TV-Y and has a run time of about 70 minutes

Movie Synopsis: It’s Adventure Day and Professor Von Drake is sending Mickey and pals into the far reaches of outer space. The team blasts off in their Clubhouse Rocket in search of Treasure Stars that will point the way to the Out-of-this-World Treasure, their ultimate goal. The interplanetary trip takes preschool viewers first to the Moon, Mars and the Rings of Saturn. Along the way, the gang gets help from friendly space aliens Moon Men Chip and Dale, Martian Mickey and Pluto from Pluto but they also encounter sneaky Space Pirate Pete, who wants the Treasure all for himself. Eventually the Clubhouse Rocket’s crew and Space Pirate Pete manage to become friends, and they all follow the trail of the Treasure Stars to the mysterious Planet Mickey where they discover the location of the Out-of-this-World Treasure. It turns out to be a futuristic, space age version of the Clubhouse -- the perfect meeting place for all pals across the universe!

Catdog Season 1 -Part 1 released on DVD 10/18

The First 10 Episodes From The First Season Debuts On DVD
                            October 18, 2011 from Shout! Factory
CatDog made its first appearance on Nickelodeon in 1998 and ran for 4 seasons until 2001. Its the best example of opposites to be found! Cat is more sophisticated where as Dog is a "wild child"! They are conjoined twin brothers, so CatDog has many adventures through-out their day due to their differences! It will be released on a 2 disc DvD with a suggested retail price of $19.93. Its rated TV-Y and is about 300 minutes long!
I for one remember watching CatDog everyday after school. I loved it! Now that my girls have gotten to see it they say they do too especially my twins, one likes cats and one likes dogs- Guess what, CatDog is their favorite show to watch together now and we all sing the song together because its so catchy...(not to mention the fact I remembered it from 12 years ago)!!
So remember  when you head out to the store or are shopping for Christmas presents online that CatDog is now on DVD and all cartoon watchers, Nickelodeon fans and the kids in your life would enjoy watching this creation from Shout! Factory
