My Review of this movie!

It's amazing how realistic the animation on Pixar films has become. I swear even movies with actual people in them weren't as realistic as cartoons can be today!

The movie starts out good, grabs you by the seat and takes you on a fun, fast paced story that shows you how Mike and Sully actually met and became friends.

This movie was sad, but leave it to Disney to get right to the bottom of your heart and tug on your heartstrings. My kids were completely captivated while watching this movie. I remember hearing it was coming out over a year ago- and being so SO excited. Monsters Inc is one of my favorite "non-princess" Disney films. Even though it is Pixar, it is also DISNEY-Pixar now.
Or maybe it was always. I have a throbbing headache that is about to turn into a migraine.
Somebody call a doctor- a nurse.. heck anybody!
I always thought, wow if they did a sequel to that movie- it would be awesome! SO naturally- I jumped at the chance to review this BlockBuster BluRay set for the girls.

Mike Wazowski and James P. Sullivan are an inseparable pair, but that wasn’t always the case. From the moment these two mismatched monsters met they couldn't stand each other. Disney’s “Monsters University” unlocks the door to how Mike and Sulley overcame their differences and became the best of friends.

One of the early concept drawings of an early Mike in college was dated 2008, which goes to show you just how long this Monsters Inc prequel has actually been in development. It’s kind of amazing that we only learned that it would be a prequel story-line earlier this year. To give you an idea of the timeline, Ratatouille was just completed when they began concept work for this film — it was that long ago.

I also heard that Pixar toured actual college campuses to prepare for the story and animation for this movie! Little facts like that are so neat, ot to mention impressive that much work goes into a movie. It's the little details, things you would never think. But it makes sense.

Mom and Dad will love hearing familiar voices of John Goodman, Billy Crystal and Steve Buscemi! My kids kept talking about the movie for days, giggling at parts of it at breakfast the next day over waffles!

In college you meet many different interesting and sometimes strange characters, and MU is no different. There are all sorts of monsters; frat monsters, nerd monsters and goth monsters, as well as an assortment of Monster professors.

Facts about movie found on:"Slashfilm.com"



Well that concludes my review of this 3 disc set, BluRay, Standard Def, and Digital Copy of Monsters University by Disney Pixar, and if you can't tell.. we totally loved it!

If you take our word for it. Buy this movie now! I left links to purchase on Amazon, Walmart & Target!

Amazon: 24.99
Walmart:: 24.99
Target: $29.99


Also, if you are in some need of entertainment for yourself and the kiddies (either/or) Do be sure to check out the Monsters University website by typing into your browser, "   www.MonstersUniversity.com   "
Check out the site, it REALLY looks like a professional collegiate website, legit!
I even took a screenshot just in case y'all didn't believe me!

Underneath that pic, at the VERY bottom of this post, you'll fiind that boring disclosure, but you'll also find links to follow Monsters University on Social Networks, like Twitter and Facebook!

Thanks for reading my review of this movie!

Girl Leo/Girl Extraordiniare blog review

This is not the first review I've done for Girl E.O.
Girl E.O. means Girl Extraordinaire, and if ever there were one of those, I think I fall into that category!
Here is the link to my first review with them: 1caseycolette.blogspot.com/2011/04/girl-extraordinaire-girleo-review.html

I fell in love with this brand when I discovered them on Tomoson.com a few years ago. Since them, I have noticed them on numerous Television shows, I even noticed their Tank and logo's on Leilene a finalist in Charm School: Flavor of Love Girls w Monique.
(Love that show, BTW!)  I was actually watching re-runs on Hulu + Plus of that show, and noticed it, paused my Television, and thought- well I'll be darned.

I love how girly and detailed each item is, and I love the quality of the thick tank tops too!
This time, I chose to review this adorable tank called Custom Cupcake Rhinestone shirt!!

Here is the picture of the bow they sent me to pin on it. Since I told them that I thought it would be cuter with one!
(Wasn't that nice of them?)

Although I think of myself as "full figured" (I'm a size 9/10) I ordered the shirt in a LRG, fearing that a Medium would be too small, as they sometimes are.
BUT, their brand apparently runs big, and that's good to know. Although my tank is rather big on me, I like it that way. Because it's more comfortable, and still stylish.
You can peep the pics below to see just how long it is on me.
The proof is in the pudding, or in this case- the details little details, or in this case- the bow.
Doesn't my shirt look better with it, than without it, as seen on their website? You can order a bow from them (or find a tank with one on it already) by talking to a member of their dedicated staff/team!!


Here are the pictures of me in it! This Cupcake Tank costs $46, since it is custom.

How cute is this shirt?  If cupcakes are your thing, and they are definitely ours, then check out these other GirlExtraordinaire Tanks here: http://www.shopgirleo.com/nsearch.html?query=cupcake .   There are several other shirts I recommend for purchase such as:

• The Military support shirts.. I'm a proud Navy Wife to a Submariner myself!
• Roses & Skull ($27)
• These recycling friendly Eco Rhinestone shirts
• and lastly, I adore this tank: Fishing for Compliments ($24)

On a kinda related, but also not topic, check out this pumpkin I painted with nail-polish for my daughters school's storybook pumpkin contest: If you Give A Cat a Cupcake! I told you I loved cupcakes...

I think if you are super girly like myself, and love all things flashy (or perhaps even your daughter/sister does), then look no further than GirlEO for all things personalized, glittery, and gifts for those who love these sorts of things!  I had several people ask me where I got my shirt! I even went to the gym in it in my hotpants,! I just love being a trendsetter!

PS: Did I mention they also have a Holiday Collection section? Cute! loves it!!~

You can catch up with them on Twitter, Facebook, & even in Torrence, California!

Rent textbooks and save up to 90% at Campusbookrentals.com

I want to share with you a site called CampusBookRentals! Here's some information on them. If the name alone doesn't alert you, they have textbooks for college students!  This is my shout-out to all of those college-goers out there, wanting to let them know the perks of renting textbooks!!!


Some perks are:
-save 40-90% off of bookstore prices
-free shipping both ways
-can highlight in the textbooks
-flexible renting periods
-we donate to Operation Smile with each textbook rented
-etc...(you can find more perks on their website :)
This last one is a big one, as they are a life saving organization!!!

"Every three minutes a child is born with a cleft — often unable to eat, speak, socialize or smile. In some places these children are shunned and rejected. And in too many cases, their parents can't afford to give them the surgeries they need to live a normal life.

That's where we come in as an international charity providing much needed surgical services. Since 1982, Operation Smile — through the help of dedicated medical volunteers — has provided more than 2 million patient evaluations and over 200,000 free surgeries for children and young adults born with cleft lips, cleft palates and other facial deformities.

As one of the most prominent children’s charities in the world and with a presence in over 60 countries, we are able to heal children’s smiles and bring hope for a better future."

Their site is neat because it shows you how much the book would cost, has several options for how long to rent it for and as you select between them reflects the new due date. Not only that but the most important part is showing you the percent of cost you save by getting it there as with other options, like renting elsewhere or even buying.
