My husband and I rarely get a date night so we are very particular about the movies we choose to see in the theaters. The House, which stars Will Ferrell and Amy Poehler, is one of those movies. From the first time we saw the trailer we knew this was a “must see in theaters” type of movie. It looks hilarious and right up our alley, not to mention the entire cast is filled with our favorite actors.

About The House

After Scott and Kate Johansen (Will Ferrell and Amy Poehler) lose their daughter Alex’s college fund, they become desperate to earn it back so she can pursue her dream of attending a university. With the help of their neighbor Frank (Jason Mantzoukas), they decide to start an illegal casino in his house. This movie is rated R.

The comedy “The House” also stars Nick Kroll (“Vacation,” TV’s “Kroll Show”), Allison Tolman (TV’s “Fargo”), Michaela Watkins (TV’s “Transparent”), Ryan Simpkins (“Arcadia”), Jessie Ennis (TV’s “Veep” and “Better Call Saul”), Rob Huebel (“Horrible Bosses 2,” TV’s “Transparent”), Cedric Yarbrough (TV’s “Reno 911!”) and Oscar nominee Jeremy Renner (“The Town,” “The Hurt Locker,” “Arrival”).

One of the many reasons we want to see this movie is because we have two daughters that we would do just about anything for. In fact, our 5 year old, who is in Kindergarten, was the top fundraiser earner this year in her school. Yes, her entire school. That is grades Kindergarten through seventh. That is a lot of kids. I spent many hours sending emails and making phone calls to family and friends. There have been a lot of fundraisers and all of them come with prizes for the top earner. And if my little girl wants to “win” a bunch of silly plastic toys, well, we are going to do whatever we can to make that possible.

I know I am not alone in doing whatever I can for my kids. Pretty much any parent would do anything in their power to get their kids what they want. Do you have a story like I do?

I haven't done anything crazy that I can think of.

I think the craziest thing that I have done for my kids is go a little overboard for Christmas!

My cat is crazy! We bought a cardboard house from Hobby Lobby that had birds, animals, trees and other things printed on it for the grandkids to color. Well the grandkids colored the pictures on them and started coloring the "bricks" on it now and then. Well we were thinking of getting a new one for them to color, but every time we went by the cardboard house, the cat was lying in there. Two days ago we found a couple of her toys in there. For fun, we closed the door to see what she would do. That night we found the door open and the cat sleeping in there again! Well she laid claim on the house and now it is hers!

I do not have kids but my cats are def spoiled. I do not go on vacation because I do not want to leave them or put them in a shelter.

I love to give my nieces and nephew over the top gifts year round not just for holidays. They are my weak spot.
