My Single Mom Life

My super cutie niece Susan is here today, she brought some movies like Blues Clues, and The Last Unicorn, some toys, and her trophies from Tae Kwon Do class, her belts, so that I could see them.
She loves taking it, and she's so good at it.
We talked about her new school, she goes to kindergarten now, amazing.

I haven't seen The Last Unicorn in a long, long time, a true Rankin/Jules classic.
If you've never seen it, you should.
It's just a truly beautiful story line and film.
We're watching that one right now and eating lunch, but we just got done watching one of my all time faves and the one Christine surprised me with this week, The Nightmare Before Christmas (2-Disc Collector's Edition) + Digital Copy.
I of course sang along to every song, the teens did too, we all love this movie.
And the DVD version is a great copy, it's mastered so well, the images so crisp and vibrant, the sounds clear, a really good dvd version.
I snapped this pic of one of the ending scenes (Poor Jack) where Jack realizes that he wasn't meant to have Christmas, that Halloween really is his day, it is the reason he exists, and he the reason it means so much to so many.

Well, what the heck, I went and did my best
And, by God, I really tasted something swell
And for a moment, why, I even touched the sky
And at least I left some stories they can tell, I did!

And for the first time since I don't remember when
I felt just like my old bony self again
And I, Jack, the Pumpkin King
That's right! I am the Pumpkin King, ha, ha, ha!

Such a cool movie, I can't wait to watch all the extras later on.
Danny Elfman is a genius in my opinion.
His words, his music, the motion, it's what makes the movie so special.
