Unsung Hero

When David Smallbone's successful music company collapses, he moves his family from Australia to the United States in search of a brighter future. With nothing more than their six children, their suitcases, and their love of music, David (for KING + COUNTRY's Joel Smallbone) and his pregnant wife Helen (Daisy Betts) set out to rebuild their lives from the ground up. Based on a remarkable true story, a mum's faith stands against all odds; and inspires her husband and children to hold onto theirs. -https://unsunghero.movie/

If I was to tell you I have been waiting for this movie since forever , that's because I have been. Those who have known me forever , know that For King and Country have been my favorite band for years. Their songs have a profound effect , and are filled with so much emotion and truth. From their first full album Crave in 2012 , to their Newest What are we waiting for? . They have not come out with a "bad" song they are so spirit filled and lyrics are just astounding. 

Anyways, back to the movie , Unsung Hero is based on the Family's journey to America to fuller effect than what story they tell during their concerts. You grasp a better understanding of the journey that have led them to who they are now. And not just brothers Joel and Luke , you are introduced to the whole family including being re-introduced to their sister Rebecca St. James . Who most can recall had a very successful career in the 80s-90s . Which she still has today along with her brothers Joel and Luke and their band For King and Country. There were a few scenes that truly grasped the overall theme of family. Including a scene where their mother introduced the family to the idea of burning the ship.  Where despite all odds , they still held on and came out stronger as a family. Now I don't truly want to spoil the movie for you. So I wont go into more scenes but this movie did have me in tears by the end of it. I did grasp as well a stronger idea of a mothers love for her children and did definitely have me appreciating my mother a whole lot more . Because we did struggle , some of my childhood but we never knew the full effect my mother did her best to create the best life possible for us.

The Aunchitha Ice Ball Maker

I ordered this ice-ball maker because I was curious about if all the stories that I have heard were true. Does it really keep cold drinks colder longer? and keep the flavor? no dilution? So I decided to order and figure out if this process really worked. I ordered the product with a complimentary code , and waited I received it a few days later. I followed the instructions and put it in the freezer and waited until the ice was frozen.  here it is there is two trays one goes on top of the other and keeps the shape .  You fill to the line in the first tray and then fill up the rest ,  Access water spills out and collects as you can see.   Here is what they look like done , and if directions are perfect and done right you will get perfect spheres for your drinks. In waiting to see if the taste would become deluded . They did not , and it was wonderful  and I loved the product packaging . Most complaints I see about the plastic and flavor of the plasti...

REPOST : Day 10 Blogging Challenge Best Trip You have ever taken.

Image
Please enjoy a repost today from my personal/Lifestyle blog : Day 10: The best trip you have ever taken.  So , I have been to a few places I have been to mexico twice both on missions. I have been to California for a Youth meeting of sorts. I have been to Florida twice , once on missions and youth meeting at the same time. The other time was for an actual vacation with my best friend , even though I would count my missions trips as vacations to me in most words. I have been to Texas countless times for youth rallies and church stuff and then for an actual vacation and seeing family. So I have traveled , I mainly do missions because that is apart of my heart. Is spreading the word of God to those who may not know it or honestly to bring comfort to those who need it.  I think my best ever trip is a combination of mission trips that I have taken , even though I can admit. Going on vacation for yourself is fun , it doesn't leave the same impression that missions can have....
