The Swap

So we made the big move and canceled our cable.
No we did not switch to dish we have the good old fashion Bunnie Ears at our house. You might be thinking that we're crazy. I mean it's winter time in Alaska and that means dark days, cold weather and lots of snow so why in the world would we be so foolish to cancel cable at this time? Well we have remedied the situation by joining the thousands of others who are members of Netflix.

That's right we have joined the throngs of movie watchers and have become one of "those people" who watch our mailbox for the next movie on our queue to arrive. Really you wouldn't believe the excitement and anticipation there is waiting for your next movie to arrive at your door. Also being an Xbox owner was never something I thought I would get enjoyment out of but we can now stream movies directly to our xbox through Netflix so we can watch them instantly if we choose. It is a great way to get entertainment at home without having to brave the cold weather and the snow laden roads.

So, don't know what to do with your winter evening? Give us a call and see what we are cozying down to in front of our fire to watch and maybe you'll want to join us. Now you won't always find us in front of our TV enjoying the benefits of Netflix (we do get outside some during this time) but during this winter season we will be expanding our movie trivia knowledge though this new addition so be ready for the Movie game...we'll be unstoppable (at least Tyler will. I still have very little retention of movies that I watch and actors in those movies.)

So ... want to join us one evening? Here is what's coming over the next few weeks:
