War Eagle Arkansas-Great Movie

Hi all,

I know, it's been too long and I have SO much to update everyone on. It's been a busy summer and we've had SO much happening. I will post with updates SOON, I promise, when I have more time to make sure I don't forget anything. I'll just say we've been getting Nick ready for college (now he will be attending The University of Toledo, which I'll explain in my upcoming post), getting all of his (and our) medical,etc. appts. in, working on getting that lift van finally, and doing some summer fun stuff as well. More on that later......

We watched this movie last night I bought on www.Amazon.com called "War Eagle Arkansas" which we thought was funny and touching. It's based on a true story between a young man with cerebral palsy and his friend (who stutters). We loved it! Our only complaint was it lacked subtitles or closed captioning, which we use ALL of the time now on all of our TVs and movies because Nick is also hearing impaired and in fact, his hearing has dropped. (it was mild-moderate loss in both ears and it is now moderate-severe in both ears) We've all become attached to closed captioning and use it even when Nick is not with us because you don't realize how much you miss otherwise at times! Anyhow, we hope you rent or buy this movie and watch it. There is bad language in it for those of you with young kids but the story outweighs any of that in our opinion and we had no problem letting Isabella watch it with us too as we know she knows better than to use that language! (just FYI for those who may have an issue with it!)

Blessings:)
Amy
