Time to go back to school!!

August is here, and that mean two things: First it means the best season for movies is over and the second it’s time to go back to school.  Ah, School! We complain a lot about it, but when you leave it behind you really miss that magic time. For other like the braves stay home moms, it’s the magic time when they will be able to have a minute of silence, for those hard worker nannies and aupairs it’s an even better time when the will have a little of time for themselves. But for me it’s time to put together a list of the best movies about school.

Pop the Question: best proposals in films

A few moths ago I was ask to write a couple of post about weddings, so I decide to post the last of this today. Valentine’s day is the day of the year with more wedding proposals and weddings. So I tough it will be a great inspiration for those getting ready to pop the question tonight. Without further ado,  here is my list for the 10 best wedding proposals on films.

X-mas’ movies.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year

with the kids jingle belling

And everyone telling you “Be of good cheer””

it’s the most wonderful time of the year

it’s the hap-happiest season of all.

I really love Christmas, for me this holidays has always been a happy time.  A time where I always has been surrounded for people I love and people who love me.  One of the things always present in our Christmas celebration are movies, we have the habit of watch Christmas movies all day long as we eat left over. So in order to honor this holiday I decide to create a list with  my favorites.
