Have you seen Cars 2 The Movie yet?


I took K to Cars 2 on Friday - opening day!  We went with some friends.  All 4 kids loved the movie.  I thought it was well done and there were some really funny parts.  Lots of action, the new characters are fun.  Most of the original characters have returned, except for Doc Hudson, although they had a nice tribute to him.  Although I do think there are too many characters to keep track of.

The movie really made K want the video game.  Her new favorite character is Holly Shiftwell.  I still love Guido (peetstop!).

By the way, BJs Wholesale Club has it for $47.99 and you can redeem a $4 off any Wii game found in a brochure I got in the mail so it would be $43.99.  Check at the Customer Service Desk at your BJs if you didn't receive one.

Rev up your engines and come on over for a Cars kick-off party!


I think to honor the release of Cars 2 the Movie, I'll have a little party for my daughter and a few friends.

The movie comes out Friday and we'll get together before seeing it.

Some ideas to host your own party:

The kids could play Cars 2: The Video Game and you can give out cool prizes.
Cars themed cakes using these cool pans or cookie cutters from Williams-Sonoma
Cars "loot" or prizes which could include die cast cars (on sale at Target for $3 each this week) or these fun Lego sets !
You can get Cars 2 themed plates at Target, or just use red and yellow.

Cars 2: The Video Game, available TODAY!


Ok boys and girls, the video game was released this morning! Go to your local Target, Best Buy, Toys R Us or other retailer and get your copy.

When we play the game, my daughter would probably choose a female car...Sally, Flo or maybe Holly Shiftwell. I'd go with Mater or McQueen myself.

Cars 2: The Video Game is coming June 21st! KA-CHOW!


We are huge Cars fans in this household.  K is 6 years old, but has been watching Cars since she was 3.  Lightning "The Queen" is what she used to call Lightning McQueen...LOL!  She was the only little girl I knew that would sit on the floor in her princess dress playing with diecast Disney Pixar Cars. 

The movie will be released on June 24th, but the video game come out June 21st! Now that we have a Wii, the new Cars 2 video game should be a blast and I have just one word about it KA-CHOW (or is that 2?)

Since I'm a member of bzzagent I'll hopefully get to take part in a BzzCampaign!
