Family Movie Night.....

Did I ever mention we don't watch TV??? Well we don't, not television that is. We do watch movies, Papa and Mama Bear approved! It seems there are just way too many questionable things on television. If it's not the advertisements, it's the content of the movie itself. I mean come on, Victoria Secret commercials during a preschool age movie!???!! In my book that's just plain wrong.
Since it seems the more I talk with other parents, both homeschool and not, it seems parents are starting to question the values of the television. Hooray, I am so excited people are seeing with their values.

Now we do own movies, and actually quite a few. Here's a list of a few of our favorites:

Little House on the Prairie while we enjoy all the ones we have.... it seems the earlier ones have more values and less questions.

the Waltons same thing with the Waltons, it seems the earlier ones are the safer ones.

Anne of Green Gables

Dr Dino {Dr. Hovind} We have his creation science seminar series, love them.

Love comes Softly Series

Leap Frog, Letter Factory, Math Circus, Talking Words Factory, Code Word Capers

Moody Science Movies, I must just mention, while we love these... we don't need all the flashy business in your typical movies. These use everyday, real life pictures. They are what most would consider "boring" Though we are that family, somewhat boring!!!

Nest Products, we own almost all of these, and love them.

Veggie Tales, We own some of these. While some of them get a little too crazy and silly for us!

Emma Smith Movie, love, love, love this!

Book of Mormon Movie, can't wait for the next one in this series.

Old Yeller and Savage Sam,

7 Brides for 7 Brothers,

The sound of music,

Heidi, I think we have owned 3 of these over the years, we wear them out!

Sugar, oh sugar!!!

okay so as i have stated, we don't eat sugar. This being said, we do eat natural cane {also known as turbinado} sugar, honey, stevia and agava. I do try to limit this. I figure to some degree sugar is sugar, and not good, even in it's natural state. I don't want to get into a "sugar fight" with anyone! So all I am going to say, is it's quite common knowledge that sugar isn't good for you. I am a sugar lover! Always have been, I'm sure. I have a very, very, very sweet tooth. Sugar was hard for me to give up. Which is why I am so thankful for so many natural sweeteners! The reason we stopped, was knowledge, we started studying sugar, and learning about it, and we had to stop. As for our family, we had to give it up all or nothing, we are a cold turkey kind of family!!! We have tried to give up sugar, oh I don't know around 100 times!!! This time it finally stuck. The more I read, the more I study the more I am so thankful for that decision. So how di

and that's why we don't eat sugar.....
