Disney reminds us that Champions can come from anywhere

If you knew you had enough strength and heart to do anything, what would you do?

I am sure this movie is going to be a tear-jerker 🙂 Check out this trailer for Disney’s McFarland USA, based on a true story about what can be accomplished if you have enough heart and enough strength to know there isn’t anything that can stop you!

Based on the 1987 true story, “McFarland, USA” follows novice runners from McFarland, an economically challenged town in California, as they give their all to build a cross-country team under the direction of Coach Jim White (Kevin Costner), a newcomer to their predominantly Latino high school, with whom they ultimately bond to build not only a championship cross-country team but an enduring legacy as well.

Coming to theaters February 20th, 2015

After having my two children Kaphen (5), and Kyler (3), I lost myself somewhere between the diapers, parenting, and up all-nighters. Now that they are a little older, I have sorted out how to be a mom, a wife and ME! So who is “me”? .....
