Blogmas Day 2: Favorite Children's Characters

So on Instagram Alex's Lemonade started a challenge where you post children's characters for Childhood Cancer Awareness. The Ice Bucket challenge raised enough awareness for ALS that they actually found what causes ALS... so I'm hoping this can help cure cancer as well... especially for children because that is a lot for a child to deal with. Here is the link to Alex's lemonade. I would encourage you to help spread the word about the website. Donate if you can and if you feel comfortable with it. But yeah! Onto my favorite childhood characters!

Sully from Monster's Inc 
Monster's Inc is one of my favorite movies of all time... and it is partially because of how sweet Sully was too Boo. And he has kind of a mischievous side too... but he's just a great character. I love him! I love all the holiday Sully's that they have dressed up for the holidays. He's just so cute and cuddly. I love Sully!

Minions 
Obviously... I love minions. I just think they're cute and they're funny and I love Despicable Me and all its characters and I love Minions and that story. It's so clever that they're just creatures that go to villains. I'm currently writing this underneath a minion blanket.

Gru from Despicable Me 
I'm trying to just mention one character per movie because... let's face it... this could be a very very long list... but I can't not mention Gru! Gru is so sweet. I love Despicable Me. Gru always makes me laugh. Steve Carell is the best!

Stitch 
I don't think I can watch this movie without crying.... especially now that I have a dog and I had another dog that passed away that really really reminds me of Stitch... its a sweet movie for any pet owner and Stitch is so cute and fluffy! I love how he's so bad but then he becomes so lovable!

Rapunzel 
I really relate to Rapunzel. Idk why... she's just my Disney Princess. I saw Moana today and I love Moana as a Disney Princess/Heroine... but Rapunzel is more me. And I love Tangled. It's a really pretty movie.

The Muppets 
Idk if the Muppets count as a children's  character... because I think adults enjoy them equally. I also can't pick one because... they're better together. My favorite muppets are Statler and Waldorf and Miss Piggy... but I can't just choose them because they aren't as good without the other Muppet characters either. I just love The Muppets. Especially the Christmas Carol... so good.

Scrooge McDuck 
If you don't know who Scrooge McDuck is... I'm sorry. You need to look up Duck Tales right now! Its so good! Mickey's Christmas Carol is great too.

Miss Nelson 
This is from the book Miss Nelson is missing. My favorite book as a kid... I love Miss Nelson and Miss Viola Swamp! Great book very cute!

I know I can think of 5000 more... but these are the characters coming to mind right now that are important to my childhood... and I hope a lot of other kids have some happiness in their holidays now because of Alex's Lemonade. Any of these things would be great to get as gifts for any children in your life... and even if these aren't movies or anything specifically Christmasy... these are still movies I like to watch around christmas!

Byeee!

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f
