While a bit cheesy in spots, I liked this movie and so did Eric. The singing is EXCELLENT. Of course, I’m a huge fan of George Strait and the original Pure Country, in which he starred.
This blog is a record of our daily life ... the joys and struggles of raising our little flock to love life and the author of life, our Lord. There are many similarities between Christ's followers and a flock of sheep, thus the name of this blog. I'm trying to 'shepherd' my little flock to know and love Christ - this is my vocation.

Movie Review - St. Rita
We recently joined Netflix and have been enjoying the ease of use and selection available. This past week, Saint Rita arrived. I suppose I chose it mainly because it is Lent and I wanted something a little more spiritual, but it was also a movie I thought the whole family could watch.

The whole family started watching, but Zeke fell asleep halfway through (as is the norm for him) and Graham played with action figures the whole time (I really didn't expect him to pay attention!). Dash, Angelina, hubby and I watched until the very end.
This is a great movie and it has everything a viewer might want ... sword fights and death, romance and marriage, children, poverty and wealth, war and eventual peace, respect for the Catholic faith, and English dubbing (thank goodness). It is long, however! It's over 3 hours, but it is set up in 2 parts if you want to split your viewing. We chose to watch the entire movie last night.
