Did you ever notice?

Did you ever notice that in Sleeping Beauty the Prince has a name and he talked? Did you ever notice that in Aladdin the Prince has a name and he talks? Did you ever notice that in Tangled the Prince has a name and he talks? did you ever notice that in the Little Mermaid (although I haven't watched it) that the Prince has a name and I'm not quite sure about talking (because I haven't watched it) Did you notice in Cinderella that the Prince has a name and he talks.
But here's the thing...................Did you ever notice that in Snow White and Beauty and the Beast that the Princes don't "Actually" have names?

Oops just checked on google and it said that the Prince's name was Adam!!! Wow!! Adam!!
But I don't think that Snow whites Prince ever has a name besides Prince. :)'
My favorite Prince's I think are Prince Phillip, the beast and Flynn Rider. :) :D
Did  you ever notice that some of the Princes are more main than others in their own stories?

Prince Charming hardly says anything and is in hardly any of the scenes either!!!
The Beast is more main than the "Prince" from Snow whiter for instance. Aladdin IS actually the main character in Aladdin. Flynn Rider is
(I think) about the same as Rapunzel as in main.
I don't think that Prince Eric is very main though. Tell me if I'm wrong but I'm not sure.
Well it was just something that occurred to me the other day.
P. s. I didn't mention the Prince from The Princess and the Frog because i haven't watched it and don't plan to and I didn't do Pocahontas because she didn't actually marry John smith and I didn't to Mulan either because I don't exactly count her as a Princess or Pocahontas. :)

A Beautiful day!!!

Today is a beautiful day!!!
I woke up this morning and came downstairs and it was actually sunny!!!
The past week or so has been rainy and cloudy and rather boring and depressing so I felt rather exhilarated and happy, hanging out the washing today  felt more like a enjoyment rather than a job; not that I don't like  hanging out the washing but it was very enjoyable.
Even though we are still in winter it is starting to feel like spring!!! The swallows have returned and the wattles are
Blooming wattle.
Not my picture
blooming and it is getting warmer. I feel rather happy and like I said before exhilarated and just enjoying the beauty which God created around me and simply thanking Him.
Isn't God wonderful? :) He made everything for us to enjoy and should we not enjoy it? I'd better go and enjoy it and leave you all in peace so as you can get on with whatever you are doing.
Mum is taking Autumn to Spotlight so it will be just me, Eden, Rogan, Moran, Myffwyn, Corbyn and possibly Arwen at home along with Braedon who is sick and is in bed.
Well I'll see you soon guys!

God Bless

Whats been happening.....

I have been re-reading The Hollow Kingdom Trilogy because I wanted to read something interesting :) Plus, the characters are awesome especially Marak, Seylin, Kate, Emily, Sable and Tinsel ;)
We didn't go to mass yesterday or on Sunday because we have all been sick or looking after sick people. I HATE being sick!! Did I mention that? :)
Been ticked off at Harry Potter for knocking off Return of the King from 3 down to 4 :( Come on which is cooler?!
We did some 
Assumption feast day stuff yesterday which was fun.
I watched Monte Carlo recently with Autumn and we love it and we watched it with Eden. :)
Autumn is going to a Deb ball in October and we are all actually going over on 23rd of September and we are staying for 2 weeks and we are going to be doing a lot of stuff very excited and we'll probably need to do Bilbo's and Frodo's Birthday party celebrations early!
Because we have been sick we've been watching a lot of movies such as: Bells on their Toes, How To Train your Dragon, Star Wars: A New Hope, and some other movies which I don't remember.
While watching 
A New Hope I was really glad that I just didn't like the new ones but that I liked the original as well because come on you gotta love the lines! :D
That's pretty much that's been going on!
Talk to you guys soon :)

God Bless

What do you guys think?

The Eagle of the Ninth: Review.

We watched the Eagle movie on Tuesday night.
We (Saxon and I) have been waiting for months to see The Eagle.
I am now reviewing it. :)

The plot of the book:
A young Roman officer, Marcus Flavius Aquila, is trying to discover the truth about the disappearance of his father's legion in northern Britain. Travelling with his ex-slave, Esca, beyond Hadrian's Wall, in disguise as a Greek eye doctor, Aquila finds that a demoralised and mutinous Ninth Legion was annihilated by a great rising of the northern tribes. In part, this disgrace was redeemed by a heroic last stand by a small remnant around the legion's eagle standard. Aquila's hope of seeing the lost legion re-established is dashed, but he is able to bring back the bronze eagle so that it can no longer serve as a symbol of Roman defeat—and thus will no longer be a danger to the frontier's security.


Well there was a bit of language at the start but the Legionaries were pretty cool. :D I was a bit disappointed that the movie changed a few of the plot-lines like Marcus freeing Esca before they left and how Marcus was suppose to be disguised as an eye doctor because they can get safe passage past Hadrian wall.
Another disappointing thing was how  Cub did not turn up and the girl Marcus marries either.
But, probably the thing I was most disappointed about was how in the Book Marcus and Esca have  a more firm relationship.
But it was a good movie anyhow and I don't think I would of been so dissapointed if I had not read the book. There are absolutely no girls  unless you call "sightings of girls" girls in movies and Anna-Lisa was annoyed because they're weren't any. :)
I think i liked Esca better in the book however and Marcus too.
It is a good movie to watch except that the Seal people are a little weird and they have a :"ceremony" of their boys becoming men and it yeah is a little weird.

The Seal People speak Gaelic as does Esca a lot of the time.
Well anyway I need to go now.
God Bless
