A week (actually more) without cable...

After the huge storm we had a week ago Monday, we were left with an unscathed house, thank GOD for that!  We do, however, have 3 trees down in the front and back yards.  One was the huge pine tree from our front yard.  I haven't uploaded the photos of the damage yet, but it's pretty incredible.  All of our trees were pulled up by the roots, and we are talking BIG trees!  Well long story short, the pine tree in the front yard tore the cable out of our house, and we've been without cable and internet ever since.  (I'm writing this at my parents' house).  Between the rain and our tree guy havnig to put priority on those with trees on their houses, we still have all our trees.

I have never been so glad that we have a huge movie selection!  I thought I'd share some of the things we have watched this past week!

1. Harry Potter - we've seen these many many times, but they are always good, even the 5th or 6th time!

2. Waking Sleeping Beauty - we got this from Netflix, it's a documentary about Disney Animation in the 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s.  I highly reccomend it to anyone who is interested in Disney history or loves Disney movies.  I love all things Disney, but this movie explored how Disney animation "came back" from a slump before The Little Mermaid turned things around and what happened after.

3. Community Season One - I love this show, but it doesn't come on at a good time for us to watch it (I think it conflicted with Bones).  Wal Mart had it for cheap the day after Thanksgiving, and I bought it.  I'm so glad that I did.  I've gotten lots of laughs from it!

4. Knight and Day - Another Netflix movie (we miss being able to watch them instantly on the X-box).  We liked it pretty well, although I have trouble watching Tom Cruise movies.  I tend to see him as the guy who jumped on Oprah's couch til about halfway through the movie.

5. Iron Man - a go to favorite.  We've seen it many times as well and love it every time!

We were so glad to have these movies!  What are some of your "go to" favorites?
