Movies, Movies, Movies

I already wrote about the first Disney movie Maddy sat down and watched. I am such a Disney fan that I want to document these events as they happen. I liked Lady and the Tramp as a kid, but it wasn't one of those movies that I got excited about. My favorite Disney movie growing up was The Little Mermaid. After watching The Lady and the Tramp recently I find myself wondering why in the world I wasn't more into this movie as a kid. It has become one of my favorites now. I've been wanting to build a Disney DVD collection, but they are quite expensive. I went to McKay's Used bookstore in hopes of finding the Lady and the Tramp for a reasonable price. They had the second one, but not the first. I started to settle on The Fox and the Hound even though as a kid I bawled my eyes out. It was a decent amount, but in my mind I just couldn't "settle" on the movie when I could go to amazon and get a movie brand new for the same price I was paying for a "used" one. I decided to put it back and got Despicable Me and Stuart Little. Heads up that Stuart Little has three cuss words in it that I didn't remember being there. I let Maddy watch and when I heard the first one I thought I was hearing things, but then the second one came out and I was like are you kidding me?! I will be taking that movie back because I disagree with the cussing. I thought I could go through ebates.com and get 25% off my order, but movies did not qualify for the promo. I finally tried Amazon.com and found the Blu-Ray/DVD combo for $22. I got free two day shipping because I'm an Amazon prime member. Honestly, you couldn't find that price anywhere else...not for new. I am so excited to have purchased our first Disney movie as a family. Yes, I asked Maddy if she wanted that movie and she did :) We also got her a Mickey Mouse movie at Mckay's and some books...one book being The Lady and the Tramp. We clearly have a soft spot in our hearts for dogs :)
