Movie Review

 Moms' Night Out was okay.  It had a couple of funny moments.  I really liked the parts with Trace Adkins.  If you like movies about moms, then you should watch this movie.  I give it a 6 out of 10.  Hope you like my review.  God Bless.

The 12 Days of Christmas according to the Bible. :)

On the 1st day of Christmas my true love gave to me...

A Partridge in a Pear Tree
The partridge in a pear tree is Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, whose birthday we celebrate on December 25, the first day of Christmas. In the song, Christ is symbolically presented as a mother partridge that feigns injury to decoy predators from her helpless nestlings, recalling the expression of Christ's sadness over the fate of Jerusalem: "Jerusalem! Jerusalem! How often would I have sheltered you under my wings, as a hen does her chicks, but you would not have it so . . . ." (Luke 13:34)

On the 2nd day of Christmas my true love gave to me...

Two Turtle Doves

Thought that I would put the 12 days of Christmas according to the Bible.  Hope you enjoy and have a Merry Christmas!  God Bless.

I beat Super Mario 3D Land and I review it.

 This game was a lot of fun.  It was very challenging too.  I loved that you could play as Mario and Luigi.  This game took me 3 years to beat, only because I put it down and played other games.  Plus, it had a lot of levels and I had to get all the gold coins to open new levels.  It took awhile.  I enjoyed it and if you haven't played it yet, you definitely should.  I give it a 10 out of 10.  God Bless.
