Angry Birds SummerAngry Birds Seasons just released a summer update today. It has 30 levels and you can only play a new one each day. I really like this format (Rovio did it with Christmas too). With only one new level each day it really makes you strive hard to get a really good score. Competition with my friends is very fierce, and score updates are texted throughout the day. So far in level 1 there are pigs in sunglasses and pig shaped clouds. Kudos to Rovio for releasing another great update to a great game.


Diary-of-a-Wimpy-Kid-2-Rodrick-RulesWe just went out and rented Diary of a Wimpy Kid 2 – Rodrick Rules. The kids love it. They have read all the books, so they know what’s going on and thought it was a good movie. It is enjoyable as a parent to not always have to watch cartoons. If your kids aren’t into these books yet i recommend picking them up. They are about a middle school kid, his buddy, tortuous big brother and their adventures. There are a few mild bad words and some stuff the brothers and friends do to each other in the movie I would not encourage as a father (pranks and such), but we talk about those as they come up. I definitely recommend getting a hold of this movie. Of course I would say start with #1 first. I give this movie an 8 out of 10.
