Do Life Right

Similar to our Top 10 Movies, today and the next few days are our Top 10 Books (divided into five categories: Young Adult Fiction, Young Adult/Children’s Non-Fiction, Adult Fiction, Adult Non-Fiction, and Children’s Fiction) for 2007 (all read by at least one person in my family). Most did not come out in 2007, we’ve just […]

I was just reading an article in Wired Magazine’s supplemental Movies Rock titled “50 Greatest Mostly Rock Soundtracks of All Time!”. Considering that I agreed with only two or three and found the rest ridiculously pretentious, I decided to write Do Life Right’s top ten list (in no particular order). To get on our list, […]

This was a hard one to narrow down to ten. In no particular order, these are the top 10 Christmas movies we like:

Few of these came out in 2007, and many are underrated by critics and reviewers. That doesn’t stop us from forming our own opinions as to the best movies and television shows we’ve seen this year. If your family and friends don’t have these, consider them for presents this upcoming Holiday season. Again, these […]

Here is a list of the Top 10 Favorite Purchases that we’ve made in 2007. Any of these would make wonderful Holiday gifts for yourself and those you love. My family helped me compile this list and it is in no particular order. Movies and television shows will be in the next post.

When I saw CraftPod’s “Glove Monster Tutorial”, I knew I had to make some with my daughters and with my Girl Scout troop. CraftPod’s instructions are just perfect, so read them for directions. Here are photographs of just a few of our cute little monsters. As you can see, the photo from my Thanksgiving Day […]

Today I am reminded that I can always be more thankful for everything that I have in my life. To celebrate this, I’ve added a “Favorite Photographs” section to my site. You’ll get a new, random, photo from Do Life Right displayed with every reload. I will be adding more frequently, so you should […]
