Act of Valor Giveaway!

Sarah Ruth — Tue, 15 May 2012 14:00:36 +0000

I was offered 2 copies of Act of Valor on dvd to give to my readers! I’m so excited about this. Not only is this a fantastic movie, but it stars real Navy Seals! I am all about supporting our military, no matter what they are doing! This giveaway will be open for one week. Make sure you enter! Enter at the bottom of this post.

TWENTIETH CENTURY FOX HOME ENTERTAINMENT AND
RELATIVITY MEDIA SALUTE U.S. SERVICE MEMBERS AND THEIR
FAMILIES WITH AN ‘ACT OF VALOR’

Portion of the Proceeds from the ACT OF VALOR Blu-ray and DVD to Benefit Operation Homefront

Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment in cooperation with Relativity Media and The Bandito Brothers pledged today to give a portion of the proceeds from the ACT OF VALOR Blu-ray and DVD to Operation Homefront. Operation Homefront is a national non-profit organization that provides emergency financial and other assistance to the families of our service members and wounded warriors. ACT OF VALOR will be available on Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD everywhere June 5th.

“ACT OF VALOR is a great film depicting the tremendous skill, dedication, and professionalism of our men and women in uniform,” said Jim Knotts, President and CEO of Operation Homefront. “The filmmakers should be commended for giving Americans a realistic look at the Navy SEALs. We’re grateful that they are saluting these heroes with their support of our efforts to assist military families and wounded warriors.”

“Our main objective in making ACT OF VALOR was to honor the community, brotherhood and family sacrifice of our men and women in uniform. We can’t think of a better way to continue doing that than by partnering with Operation Homefront, which is a truly admirable organization that directly supports the service members and families of those that put their life on the line for us every day,” said co-directors Mike “Mouse” McCoy and Scott Waugh.

An unprecedented blend of real-life heroism and original filmmaking, ACT OF VALOR stars a group of active-duty U.S. Navy SEALs, alongside actors Roselyn Sanchez, Alex Veadov, Jason Cottle and Nester Serrano, in a film like no other in Hollywood’s history. A fictionalized account of real life Navy SEAL operation, ACT OF VALOR features a riveting story that takes audiences on an adrenaline-fueled, edge-of-their-seat journey.

ACT OF VALOR combines stunning combat sequences, up-to-the-minute battlefield technology, and heart-pumping emotion for the ultimate action adventure film–showcasing the skills, training and tenacity of the greatest action heroes of them all: real Navy SEALs.

Produced and directed by former Baja 1000 champion Mike “Mouse” McCoy and former stuntman Scott Waugh, and written by Kurt Johnstad (300), the film opened #1 in America when it was theatrically-released by Relativity Media on February 24, 2012. The ACT OF VALOR Blu-ray and DVD arrive June 5th just in time for Father’s Day.

My Messy Moment

Sarah Ruth — Fri, 04 Nov 2011 02:50:23 +0000

The SITS Girls are having a giveaway! They are giving away an AWESOME Canon Rebel Camera. So of course I had to enter.

Entry prompt:

Spending time with friends and family can lead to fun and memorable moments, but also some very messy ones. Tell us about the messiest moments that you’ll always remember!

Thinking about messy things I could always tell you about a little girl or boy I babysat for who had a diaper explosion or made a mess with food or crafts. But everyone has those stories, right!

My story is a little different. (Oh Lord I can’t believe I’m about to post this for the whole world to see!) When I was 7 or 8 my family went to Disney World. In an effort to save money, my parents stocked up on crackers for us to eat in the parks for lunch. Ya know, the cheese and peanut butter ones? Well, my tummy didn’t really like them.

My dad really wanted to ride the roller coasters. My sister was too little to ride so my mom stayed with her. I was just big enough to be able to ride the big rides although I didn’t really want to. As we were in line for Space Mountain I began asking my dad questions about the ride. “Is it fast?” “Is it dark in there?” etc. To an adult the answers would be no. To a little kid it all seemed different.

Let’s just say the cheese & peanut butter crackers plus Space Mountain equaled a not so great day for me. And not so white anymore shorts. Thank God for Clorox!

Disclaimer: I received information about Clorox’s Bleach It Away campaign and am sharing my messy moment for the chance to win prizes from The SITS Girls. To learn more about the messy moment program, check out www.BleachItAway.com. Sharing your story on the Clorox fan page gets you entered for the chance to win $25,000 and daily prizes, and you can grab a coupon for Clorox® Regular Bleach.
