Sarah- AKA- WonderMom

Hello!!!

I'm Sarah, James' other half. I am just your average stay at home mom. I spend my days chasing an endlessly energetic toddler and calming down a very emotional 5 year old. 

I enjoy reading, binge watching my favorite shows on Netflix and Hulu, scrapbooking, drinking wine, and eating chocolate. As James said, we'll focus on a few things in this blog and I cannot wait to dive in. I hope to post things that you actually enjoy reading.

If there's anything you'd like me to write about, feel free to leave a comment and I will see what I can come up with!!

Talk soon!

Roku 3 - Amazing!

We bought our Roku 3 almost a year ago now. Realizing we were using Netflix more than watching the endless commercials on Satellite, we decided to take the plunge and ordered the Roku. At the same time we subscribed to Hulu Plus. Even with paying for those two we were still saving $64ish per month compared to Satellite.

Anyways we love our Roku. It is very easy to use. My five year old can navigate Netflix with the best of them!

The only thing I would like to see added is some sort of volume control on the Roku remote. I know we could always setup a harmony universal remote and I get that they want to keep the cost down and the Roku easy to use, but still. It would be handy not to have to use a different remote every time we want the volume changed.

We bought the player before the voice search model came out so I cannot comment on that one. A quick Amazon search shows the new model is less than the old though!

James' Introduction

Hey everyone! This is James here. I hope that I can get my wife Sarah to introduce herself and start writing some blog posts. I think we are going to focus on things that make our lives easier, goals, ambitions, and probably a little family life and interests too.

I am a father of two beautiful girls; Rylee who is five and Piper who is one. I am married to my best friend and love of my life, Sarah. I enjoy a few hobbies, fish keeping, cars, and the outdoors. I will probably make some posts in the future outlining those things.

That is all for now! Have a great day!
