533 Reasons To Go See Delivery Man This Fall!

533 Reasons To Go See Delivery Man This Fall!

By Erin

Disclosure: Disney Films invited me to be one of  533 exclusive bloggers to share the Delivery Man trailer, to join in the celebration of family. This is not a sponsored post and no financial compensation was received.  All thoughts and opinions remain  my own. #DeliveryManMovie

In the film Delivery Man, Vince Vaughn plays an affable underachiever looking for his purpose in life, when he finds out he’s fathered 533 children through anonymous donations to a fertility clinic from 20 years ago. That’s crazy in itself right? Now he must make the life changing decision on whether or not to come forward when 142 of them want to meet their biological father. Will he be able to make a difference in their lives?

DELIVERY MAN opens in theatres everywhere on November 22nd!

So why is this movie trailer so special you may be thinking and why should you care?  

 While the concept of the film is amusing, it’s also a really heartwarming look at what it means to be a family — no matter how unconventional. The definition of family has evolved over the years and especially with what’s been happening in current events there couldn’t be a more appropriate time for this movie trailer to make its debut for this movie!  Also the families that are seen on film, can come in all shapes and sizes.

In order to celebrate family, 533 of my fellow bloggers have exclusively delivered this trailer online to our special, lucky readers. That means it won’t be debuting online anywhere but here on our sites first. Another cool thing? We all posted this at the EXACT. SAME. TIME! 😉

I personally loved this idea because I look at the blogging community as one big,giant, happy family who supports one another through thick and thin just like any family does. The friendships that have been formed, will last forever.

DELIVERY MAN stars Vince Vaughn, Cobie Smulders and Chris Pratt and will be in theaters November 22. If you watched the movie trailer already, then you probably have figured out that this movie is for adults and not small children. It’s rated PG-13 for mature themes.

So there you have it, 533 reasons to be excited to go see this movie come November! 533 children & 533 bloggers all have come together to show you what being a family is all about. 😉

Wordless Wednesday: Disney Days

Wordless Wednesday: Disney Days

By: Erin

Disney Days are so much fun! The day of Club 33, I got to enjoy a little bit of time in the park. It was in the 90’s on this day, so it was hot hot hot! We spent much of that time just trying to cool off in the shade, people watching and just shooting pictures of whatever caught our eyes. We tried to look for unique things at Disney to take pictures of that we have never taken pictures of before. So hopefully you will see some new things here, even if you are a seasoned Disneyland goer! 😉 These are some of my favorites from this very hot, but exciting day! Enjoy!

The Taste of Huntington Beach Raises over $40,000 for Children’s Library!

The Taste of Huntington Beach Raises over $40,000 for Children’s Library!

By: Erin

Food, Wine, good music? Sound good to you? Well that’s what the Taste of Huntington Beach had to offer, all for a wonderful cause! If you remember my earlier post about the Taste of HB then you have some idea of what a great event this was and I hope many more of you will be able to attend next year!

I had the opportunity to attend this and was very kindly given two press passes to come and enjoy and explore what the Taste of Huntington Beach has to offer everyone. This wonderful event took place the other Sunday, on April 28, 2013. We had such a fabulous time sampling from local restaurants & bakeries from the city of Huntington Beach as well as the many breweries and wineries that were in attendance from all over in California. I was very impressed with how organized and how smoothly everything was being run. The only thing I wish that was different, that I heard others say as well, is that it needs to be longer! Ending at 4pm is much too early as everyone is just getting started and comfortable.  Some time is needed to just sit back, relax and let all the delicious food and wine settle while listening to some awesome music and enjoying loved ones company.

The Taste of Huntington Beach was held for a charity to support the Children’s Department of the Huntington Beach Library and it was a raging success. Over $40,000 was raised by this one day event that was attended by over 2000 people.

Now onto the fun part! Here are some fun photos of what you can experience for yourself at next years taste! 😉
