♪When my babies smile at me we're watching Rio♪ @RioMovie #ad


Gracias to Allied Hispanic, BB was able to fully enjoy the Rio DVD with all four of my grandbabies.
This historia and dancing are all Babushka.




HolaHolaHola My Beautifuls!!

As you can see, BB and the grands were totally enjoying our Rio dvd.  Ahora, we did see the film in the theater when it first came out, and we loved it, but there's nothing like being able to just let go, get up and let the feet follow the alma.  We totally enjoyed doing that.  


"Get ready to shake your tail feathers! Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment takes you deep into the Brazilian Amazon Rainforest for the most fun you’ll have all summer, as RIO 2 debuts on 3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray and DVD July 15. Just in time for summer vacation, this “hilarious family adventure” (Jeff Craig, Sixty Second Preview) will samba its way into your home with exciting bonus features and extras everyone will enjoy.  Projected to eclipse more than $490 million worldwide at the box office, the animated hit is the must-own family title of the season."


The cast of the animated hit comedy Rio returns — along with a new flock of all-star voice talent, including Bruno Mars, Kristin Chenoweth, Andy Garcia and more — in this high-flying sequel for the whole family. The party continues when Blu (Oscar® nominee Jesse Eisenberg1), Jewel (Oscar® winner Anne Hathaway2) and their three kids take a walk on the wild side and embark on a colorful, comical, music-filled journey through the Amazon. As Blu tries to fit into his new surroundings, he goes beak-to-beak with the villainous Nigel, and meets the most fearsome adversary of all: his father-in-law!




Now doesn't that look Buenisimo??!!! 

Did you recognize the voices? No se about you, but BB wouldn't mind having Andy Garcia in the family. ::fanning herself::  The new cast has so many Latinos Babushka almost feels like she's back in Miami, but with that musica, it's definitely Rio. Didn't you just wanna get up and dance??  The music is such a pivotal part of the movie, they've added downloadable tracks to their BluRay dvd- and more!!

The RIO 2 Blu-ray™ and DVD brings everything you loved from the first Rio, but with even more laughs, excitement and music! Not only will kids get nearly an hour and a half of bonus features on the RIO 2 Blu-ray™, but they’ll also get their groove on with two downloadable bonus songs from the RIO 2 soundtrack: “I Will Survive” and “Poisonous Love,” both performed by Gabi (Kristin Chenoweth) and Nigel (Jemaine Clement). For even more fun, every Blu-ray™ comes with 15 exclusive levels for Angry Birds Rio™ and Music Machine Sing-Along and Dance-Along songs for a whole family party!  There’s also Janelle Monáe’s “What is Love” lyric video, a deleted scene, character auditions and much more!

Hurricanes-Not just in Florida. WWW. Ready.Gov #HurricanePrep

HolaHolaHola My Beautifuls!!!

Ya 2014 has had it's first official hurricane, Arthur.  Estan listas, you ready for the next one?

"Did you know that a mere six inches of fast-moving flood water can knock over an adult? It also only takes two feet of rushing water to carry away most vehicles including pickups and SUV’s. More tips and information: www.ready.gov/hurricanes #HurricanePrep"


Having lived through Andrew, (scary, scary, beyond scary) and going to a hurricane shelter a couple of years ago, BB can testify to the need for safety and being aware of the weather at all times.  Thankfully this is easy to do with WEA- Wireless Emergency Alerts.  This is a new system started January 1 that will sound an alert and vibrate on your cellphone when there is possible danger from weather conditions.  The complete Q & A can be found on http://www.ready.gov/alerts.

Another site to visit for tips on saving safe during hurricanes is http://www.ready.gov/hurricanes .  It shows you how to prepare and what to do before, during, and after a hurricane.  Highlights:


Hurricanes, this is very real and for once Babushka finds no humor in a situation. Pero, this is definitely a good time for Gratitude and realizing what's important in life.  Be sure to gather your family close and stay safe My Beautifuls.
