 Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher haven’t been in many movies lately, but this movie is a definite hit for all Diaz and Kutcher fans. Their fun, silly personalities add some refreshing excitement to an otherwise predictable script.
 This movie begins while alternating between the contrasting lives of Diaz and Kutcher in New York City. After circumstances, they both decide to take a much-needed trip to Sin City, a.k.a. Las Vegas. After a hotel mix-up of being scheduled in the same room, they finally decide to spend the night together. But once alcohol and partying get involved, Diaz wakes up the next day only to find herself married! They quickly begin arguing and discover they couldn’t be more different. However, just before they plan to leave and file for divorce, Kutcher puts Diaz’s quarter in a slot machine and ends up winning the prize of three million dollars! They go to court to decide who should get the money, but the judge rules that he will hold the money until they attempt to make their marriage work. Six months of living together and weekly therapy sessions begin miserably, but then…well, we’re pretty sure you know how it turns out.
 Nonetheless, this movie was delightfully entertaining. We hadn’t seen Kutcher acting in his post-being married to Demi Moore (I know we’re still devastated, too) days, but luckily he hasn’t lost his charm.
 We really enjoyed this movie, and so did the rest of our theater for that matter. The theater was filled with constant laughs and everyone walked out with a smile on their faces. We recommend seeing this if you’re in the mood for a comical movie that isn’t too serious - a perfect Friday movie after a long week!

When searching for a nail salon to prepare our hands and feet for prom and summer, we considered many options Rockford offers. Â Ultimately, we decided to give a fairly new and renovated business, Enara Day Spa a shot.
Enara Day Spa is a full-service spa that also offers massages, facials, waxing and spray tanning. Their facial products consist of mainly Skin Ceuticals and MD Formulation; we have had experience with these products and they work wonderfully for all skin types. In addition to skin care products, they also offer a selection of upscale makeup brands and some boutique items. The staff is always extremely helpful and fun. We consider it one of the better spa options in the Rockford area.
Our experience at Enara was near perfection! We had a private spa party with five of our friends to get manicures and pedicures - this idyllic time was a fun way to have an end of high school celebration with close friends. We were able to bring snacks and beverages for our get together. It was nice having the spa to ourselves because we were able to take over the lounging and nail rooms while waiting for our turns. Â Also while waiting, we were able to experiment with their different makeup, which includes a wide-ranging amount of Bare Escentuals products.
At Enara, we paid $51 for both a manicure and pedicure as well as renting the facility for a night- not a bad deal! Â The staff was extremely fun and patient, considering they were able to put up with the six of us for almost four hours =).Â
Overall, our experience was fantastic and we would definitely recommend it to anyone in the search of a pampering, relaxing, or entertaining experience.Â
