LOVE meal deals for kids! Looks like Fuddruckers in Omaha (both locations) will have $.99 Kids meals all day on Mondays and Tuesdays. AND the small print at the bottom says you can get 2 kids meals per adult meal purchased! Sweet! I have no clue how long this promo goes, so go soon (or call ahead to make sure it is still on before you head out)!

With house showings coming up randomly, we have been closely watching the kids eat free or cheap places!! Let me know if you have heard of any I don't have on my list here!!  (Ok-I know THIS Fuddruckers deal is missing, but any others?)

The other day, I wrote a little post about a couple of Disney movies: John Carter and Frankenweenie. As you probably know, John Carter comes out in theaters today. I know there have been a lot of questions about John Carter (even my husband was asking me about it) so I wanted to share this great article with you. Geek dad over at Wired.com was able to preview the movie and he wrote a FANTASTIC blog post about John Carter called 10 Things Parents should know about Disney's John Carter. Great post-go read it!

And while I have your attention, let me give you a first peek at another upcoming Disney movie that I am really excited for (upcoming in 2013): The Lone Ranger (with Johnny Depp!!). Read the info I was sent:

From producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Gore Verbinski comes Disney/Bruckheimer Films' THE LONE RANGER. Tonto (Johnny Depp), a spirit warrior on a personal quest, joins forces in a fight for justice with John Reid (Armie Hammer), a lawman who has become a masked avenger.

THE LONE RANGER will be released in May 2013.

Looks sooooo good!! I guess that is what I will do for my anniversary next year...

***Remember that I generally just price match at Walmart as much as I can rather than go to all the stores separately! I LOVE being able to do that. You can also pricematch at Target, but I find it easier to pricematch at Walmart.

Friends! Oreos are 100 years old! What a yummy century it has been!

I am on the Dianey blogger list now, wich means I get some fun information to share with you about their upcoming and current movies. I want to share a couple of the funt hisngs I have heard about over the past couple weeks.

First, if you have not heard about John Carter yet, it is a Disney movie that opens the Friday everywhere. Here is a little snipit about the movie:

JOHN CARTER is directed by 2-time Academy Award winner Andrew Stanton (“Finding Nemo” & “Wall-E”) and is based on the novels by Edgar Rice Burroughs which were the inspiration for such classic sci-fi adventure movies like “Star Wars” and “Avatar.”

Here is a preview:



You can "Like" JOHN CARTER on Facebook or visit the official site to learn more! (Remember it opens this Friday 3/9/12)

Also, My family saw a movie in the theatre on Saturday and there was a preview for the upcoming Frankenweenie movie. It looks interesting. My boys (the 2 old enough to talk) both yelled "I want to see that!" in the theatre at the end of the preview! And I was sent a preview to share with you!


It opens on October 5, 2012 in theatres and looks like a good one to see as a family!

FYI, Snapfish has a fantastic deal on photo prints that ends today! You can get 100 4x6 prints for $5 shipped!! Use coupon MARCHPRINTS to get this deal. See offer details here
