Flipper’s New Adventure

Posted on by

Team TLC movie night for February 11, 2012 – Flipper’s New Adventure (amazon affiliate link)

★★★★★ – Thomas and Lillian both enjoyed the original Flipper. Lillian loved the music. She says, “The singing is beautiful.” We sure did miss Lillian for this one. She would have liked it too. Thomas sat still for the entire movie. He enjoyed the movie, all except for the “fighting it out” scene with the bad guys. He really did not like that whole section of the movie. It was all rectified with a happy ending though! Enjoyed by both of us!

Seeing Thomas so absorbed in a book, he does not stop until he has read the entire book (even if it takes an hour or two).
Happiness is kind people. Happiness is the man in Walmart who directed Thomas and I to a shorter line. I was not in a hurry and Thomas and I were happily talking to one another and being patient. Then the kind man in front of us asked us to go ahead of him. AND, then when I turned to thank him once again, he smiled and blessed me. Happiness is kind people and being kind to others spreads happiness.
Dinner with just my Thomas tonight.
Toasting with Thomas over dinner.
Thomas’ toasts to Lillian making it to Vegas, to Lillian having fun in Vegas, to our yummy dinner and to our exciting and fun day together.

A Small World of Fun – Take Three

Posted on by

Team TLC movie night for February 4, 2012 – Walt Disney’s It’s a Small World of Fun, Vol. 1 (amazon affiliate link) was our pre-show movie.

★★★★★ – We watched the last of the shorts from this DVD for our pre-show again this weekend. This time “A Cowboy Needs a Horse”. Lots and lots of laughter with this one! “Grievance of a Star Maker” was a bit more serious as it dealt with pollution and the environment. It’s about a little boy who loved the stars and helped the star maker keep them clean and shiny. Thomas and Lillian enjoyed it.
