Now that football season is in full effect, its difficult to get a chance to watch our rentals. Now that we have Verizon Fios they have this incredible option called Flex View which allows you to watch movie rentals/purchases on the go on up to 5 devices (laptop,mobile device,or desktop).
My husband & I had a "date night" while our son was away. We decided to rent Hall Pass. The great thing was that we started it on our tv and then I was able to continue viewing it on our laptop since it was football night.
It was easy to watch on the laptop. We used the window player. The picture was just as clear.
Sounds great, right? Verizon FIOS is only available in select parts of the country so find out if it is available in your area here

The Help review
One of the most anticipated books turned films to be released this summer is Dreamworks The Help. I've been one of thousands of people that have been patiently waiting. So when I was given the opportunity to attend a screening last week, I cleared my schedule to make sure I could make it.
Now I must honestly admit that I haven't finished reading the book (gasp), but I do intend to. So going into the movie I had a brief synopsis of what it was about and what I expected. I can say that this movie lived up to all my expectations. It was an AWESOME movie! I never cry. I didn't cry watching Titanic, nor the Notebook but for this I did. My eyes welled up but it could have also been from all the laughing I did too. This film was hilarious even though it dealt with serious issues of our times. This story teaches you about the powerful relationships between women. The Help will make you realize how important it is to treat those around you with equal respect and love, no matter what. We are all the same.
I really suggest you grab your spouse or group of girls and head out to the theaters this weekend to catch this movie. Even if you haven't read the book, this story will touch your heart and have you appreciate those around you even more.
Tutu Goes Green by Tulani Thomas Review
Even though its the summer, we are still trying to have our son do some daily assignments. We have him writing and reading books. We don't want him to get lazy once school begins in just a few short weeks.
One of our new favorite books is Tutu Goes Green. I met the author, Tulani Thomas at this years Book Expo. She's a local New York mother of two, corporate lawyer turned author. As a mom, she knew that it is important to teach our children at an early age about saving our earth. That is exactly what her book is about.
Tutu is a young girl who wants to keep our earth clean. Throughout the book, she displays different ways how we can recycle, and reuse many things such as plastic bottles, old notebooks and shopping bags. Making simple changes to our daily lives will make a difference to the type of earth our children will be living in. I want my son to learn all these steps so he can have a brighter & healthier future.
Go to their website Tutu Goes Green and find out where you can purchase this book to add to your child's library. As of October it will be available in your local Barnes & Noble bookstores. I highly suggest it. Its a great beginning book for anyone ready to save our Earth.
Follow Tutu on Facebook to keep posted on her upcoming events and stop by to say hello!
Many thanks to Tulani Thomas for giving me this great book to share with my son. It was a pleasure meeting you and I wish you much success!
