This is our first ever Disney Princess Unboxing for Pley. Pley gave us a monthly subscription to the Disney Princess Box and I am also an affiliate.
This time around it is a box all about Rapunzel. Tangled was my daughter’s very first movie in the theater. Eva unboxes the Rapunzel box and it is filled with some great items that match Rapunzel’s (and Eva’s) personality so well.
Tangled was the very first movie that Eva ever saw in the theaters. We made a huge deal out of that first movie and it will always stick with me. That was seven years ago when Eva was 3 years old. She had just turned 3 a few days prior. I like to think that Tangled will always hold a special place in Eva’s heart. I think that Eva is very much like Rapunzel in that she is creative and artistic. She loved the art kit inside this box. We are looking forward to many more of these mystery boxes.
Andrew and I went to Bellingham today to meet fellow Youtuber Midnight Owl to give her some books for The Haunted Mansion as well as a set of Nightmare Before Christmas Tsum Tsums.
While we were there we went into Friendly Neighborhood Comics. Andrew convinced me, with no prompting whatsoever, to buy a couple of Funko Pops. I got white Canary and The Atom from DC’s Legends of Tomorrow.
When we came home Halos sent me a box of #HalosFun. I am partnering with #HalosFun to spread Pure Goodness. The Fun Pack had coupons and more to enjoy the fun of Halos. I’ll be doing some more posts and activities with Halos soon, so be on the lookout.
Tonight, Allison and I went into Boston for an overdue night out together. We went to see the movie, A Monster Calls, as part of a sneak preview screening. The movie arrives in select theaters on December 23rd and then nationwide on January 6. Here is the description of the movie.
A visually spectacular and unabashedly emotional drama from director J.A. Bayona (“The Impossible”). 12-year-old Conor (Lewis MacDougall) is dealing with far more than other boys his age. His beloved and devoted mother (Felicity Jones) is ill. He has little in common with his imperious grandmother (Sigourney Weaver). His father (Toby Kebbell) has resettled thousands of miles away. But Conor finds a most unlikely ally when the Monster (portrayed by Liam Neeson in performance-capture and voiceover) appears at his bedroom window one night. Ancient, wild, and relentless, the Monster guides Conor on a journey of courage, faith, and truth that powerfully fuses imagination and reality.
The movie was very well done, the artwork was incredible. I enjoyed it. It was beautifully done and had an interesting story. You can learn more about it on the social channels for the movie and also through the trailer below.
