AVR News Update
Hello and Happy Sunday! And Happy Easter!
The kids have been on Spring Break since Weds. since they had to make up a few ice days. The weather has been chilly, so we've just been hanging out. We did go to the NC Zoo on Friday and exhausted ourselves. Yesterday we saw Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Awesome! Then, of course, we had to come home and watch Iron Man, Iron Man 2, Avengers and Iron Man 3. Haven't had a movie marathon in a long time. Wish I'd had the stamina to throw in Thor and Thor 2. Nommy nomnoms! *drool* lol Anyway next marathon may need to be Lord of the Rings. :D
Haven't done much blog wise and picked up only a few books. Good thing. I have a busy May coming up. 39 days left of school. Yes, I'm counting down the days when I won't have to put up with the car rider lanes. Woot!

Nothing worth mentioning. I probably should have resisted. Ah, well. Sometimes resistance really *is* futile.
We went to the zoo on spring break and ended up the same way- flat out tired. What 's up with that? Too frickin big LOL. For the adults anyway... glad you liked Capt. America, I saw it again last week my boss wanted to see it so we took the afternoon off for a movie. Not a bad way to spend an afternoon. :) Happy Easter and have a good week!
ReplyDeleteOur zoo has something like 500 million miles of trails. Ok, that might be a tad overstating it. It does have about 5 miles and it is hilly, so I can understand why we were exhausted. lol Seeing a movie with the boss is great way to spend an afternoon. :D Happy Easter to you, too and thanks!
DeleteResistance is futile and terribly hard ;) A Lord of the rings marathon, such a good idea. Have a great week !
ReplyDeleteIkr?! lol I'm all ready for a rainy day to watch LotR now. Need about 12 hrs for the extended edition and potty breaks. :D
DeleteIt's not easy keeping them occupied, I remember it well.(Mine are 'almost' adults now:). Movie marathon is always good. And thanks goodness for Netflix.Have a great week and Happy Reading.
ReplyDeleteMy Sunday Post is here
My kids are teens now, so all they want is the living room tv and internet. Between the computers, Xbox and Netflix & Amazon they stay occupied. It was nice to get out and about for once. LOL
DeleteI went off and saw the Lego Movie which is great for younger kids (and those young at heart). Captain America is next on my hit list.
ReplyDeleteAw, the Lego Movie was pretty cute. lol Our kids are teens so they still like to see some of the animated movies and yet are old enough for movies like Captain America. :D
DeleteI haven't seen any of those movies you mentioned...I think I really need to rectify that situation, asap. :) Lord of the Rings though, I have those movies. I could totally watch those today, while grading papers. Such a good idea!
ReplyDeleteI didn't get too many books this week either-I'm trying to keep it under control so I can *maybe* get to what I already know. Maybe. Someday. lol
I hope you have a great week and Happy Easter to you and your family!

O.O Not seen...oh, my! Yes, you must! lol I hope you enjoyed the LotR. I'll have to wait for a rainy day. :)
DeleteThank you and you, too!
I haven't been to a zoo in years--no little kids to take, I guess! I want to see Captain America and your movie marathon sounds awesome! We watched Frozen last night, but I didn't like it as much as I'd hoped though it was cute. Have a great reading week!
ReplyDeleteOur kids are teens now and we've tapered off going, but we have our granddaughter Kyleigh now, so more trips may be in our future. :)
DeleteHaven't seen Frozen yet, but maybe it'll be on Netflix soon. :)
I rain for the first 4 days of my kids spring break, luckily it has been sunny and fairly warn, so they have been outside. We have danced on the xbox for the past few days too. :) Enjoy your week.

Yeah, we got some rain, too and it was chilly! But today was gorgeous! :)
DeleteThanks!
That movie marathon sounds epic and I'm on my way for the LofR marathon. :)
ReplyDelete"resistance is futile' - it feels that way sometimes, doesn't it? I did pretty well resisting last week but other weeks....:D
Happy Easter!
It was totally unplanned, but the weather was rainy and a little chilly, so it was perfect. Next rainy day, get over here for the LotR marathon. We'll need close to 12 hrs for the extended editions. :D
DeleteAh, I remember those spring breaks...and then planning for the summer break. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteWe used to do lots of movies, too. Have a great week, and here's MY WEEKLY SUNDAY/MONDAY UPDATES
Summer break is right around the corner. At least they'll be in Ohio at my parents for 2 weeks of it. The rest we'll have to plan. lol
DeleteGlad you had a nice spring break! I'm a few weeks away from being done with my own classes and I'm SO excited not to have so much homework.
ReplyDeleteI hope to see Captain America sometime soon!
Yay to being almost done! I bet you are excited!
DeleteIt's a good one. *two thumbs up*
Souls of the Damned looks really good. I'm going to look into that one! And I can not wait to see the second Captain America movie!! AHH. I love Captain America!!
ReplyDeleteHave a good Sunday.

It's book 5, just to let you know. I have 4 to read first, so I'll probably review them both together. Looking forward to them. :D
DeleteIt's a good one! *bounces in seat*
Sounds like a fantastic movie weekend! I haven't seen Captain America yet, but we just saw Monuments Men last night. It was really good.
ReplyDeleteTotally unplanned, too. lol I'll have to check out Monuments Men when it hits Netflix. I think the kids will want to see Godzilla or Maleficent which both come out next month.
DeleteSouls of the Damned is a good cover-I really need to catch up with this series. Well, I need to START this series! Book 1 has been on my shelf for ages, pleading to be read! Enjoy your books
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely a different series. :)
DeleteCan't wait to see what you think of Souls of the Damned
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to it. :D
