Last night I saw Larry Crowne with Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts at the KCET Cinema Series. I wasn't sure about this movie going in, but coming out I was convinced. It is great. Very heart warming and fun. I do enjoy a good romantic comedy and with Nia Vardalos writing what else would it be.
It opens Friday so get out there and enjoy. Also, you get to see quite a bit of Tom Hanks without his pants...
Paul Frank is having a great party at The Pacific Design Center tonight. Bring the kid, the dog, whoever you like. This looks like a good time and I'll be there with our Behemoth George for the Puppy Prom.
Here's a great MomsLA video from the event!
For more info check out the Paul Frank Facebook Page The party is traveling around the country so check for a city near you.
Hope to see some of you there!
Here's a fun pick of me, my daughter, our dog, and my husband's foot at the party.
This really was a great event. Here's the list of cities they'll visit over the summer. Hope it's coming to a town near.

I went to a press preview of Cirque Du Soleil's IRIS at The Kodak Theatre in the heart of Hollywood, last week. As always, Cirque did not disappoint. There were spectacular acrobats, visually stunning sets and costumes, and suprising feats!
The show is a journey through the world of cinema. Preview performances start July 21st and the show premieres on September 25.
I was invited to a pool party at The Hyatt in Huntington Beach a week or so ago and I gotta tell you it was amazing. Particularly, if you have kids. They have a great kids pool area that has a 1 foot deep pool for the little ones, 4foot pool for the swimmers, and 3 water slides for everyone. My daughter loved it and I was able to relax knowing that she was safe because there were a multitude of life guards. In the past I have gone down to Palm Springs for pool vacations, but in the summer it's just too hot. I can guarentee you I will be returning to the Hyatt Huntington Beach this summer on my own dime.
