Going HOME with Oh, Tip and @Netflix_Ca! #StreamTeam
31 Aug 2016
Heading Home
The girls and I have been on the road, away from home, for the past 2 months, living out of our travel trailer from various campgrounds. Wendy joined us for 3 weeks at the end of July for our journey to Florida, and every weekend. It was an amazing trip, and we created some amazing memories.
While we have been living out of the #SilvaBulletRV, we have spent a lot of time enjoying the outdoors. For the most part, the girls have been really good about not playing on their devices if the weather was good. However, we have had a few rainy days. On those days, we’ve played board games, or turned to Netflix for entertainment.
There is no shortage of great things to watch on Netflix. This past month, we watched one of our favourite movies, Home.
Oh no, My hands are in the air as if I just do not care.
“When Oh, a loveable misfit from another planet, lands on Earth and finds himself on the run from his own people, he forms an unlikely friendship with an adventurous girl named Tip who is on a quest of her own. Through a series of comic adventures with Tip, Oh comes to understand that being different and making mistakes is all part of being human. And while he changes her planet and she changes his world, they discover the true meaning of the word HOME. (Written by 20th Century Fox)” ~ IMDB
Jim Parsons of Big Bang Theory (Sheldon) voices “Oh”, a clueless Boov. Rihanna voices “Gratuity ‘Tip’ Tucci”, who has been displaced from her home, and just wants to be reunited with her mom. The awesome cast also includes voices by Steve Martin and Jennifer Lopez.
Home Soundtrack
As well as voicing Tip, Rihanna performs the entire soundtrack to the film.
At times this summer, we felt just like Oh and Tip. Crossing through many Cities, discovering many new things, and spending quality time together, as a family. We laughed, we joked, we splashed in the rain, we swam, we drove long distances, and had an amazing adventure.
There’s no place like Home
While our summer journey was amazing, filled with many adventures and awesome memories, we are looking forward to sleeping in our beds, to working from my home office, getting back into a regular schedule, hanging out with our friends, and just being Home. The girls are looking forward to going back to school, and seeing all of their friends.
So much to watch on Netflix!
From movies, to original programming, to amazing children and teen shows, there’s something for every member of the family on Netflix.
Happy streaming!
Cheers,
Big Daddy
