- The Water Horse DVD
I love to watch movies with my kids. Since going to the movie theater is so expensive, and because we’re lazy homebodies, we generally prefer to watch it on DVD. We pop some microwave popcorn, change into our pajamas, dim the lights, and we’re ready to go. These days you can even [...]
