I DID IT! I DID IT! I DID IT!

So my friend Leslie told me to let her know when I'd finished Breaking Dawn. Ok I'm fihally done. It took me much long to finish the final book because 1. I wasn't pushing myself to read, read, read and ignore my family. 2. I wanted to savor the final moments of Edward, Bella & Jacob. 3. Christmas is upon us and there are so many other things going on around here that I just couldn't sit and veg with my book. But now I'm done and I'm craving something else to read. SO what do I pick up. The Host you say. No kinda hoping to get that for Christmas. No, I pick up the 5 book of Harry Potter. I wanted to reread that one and then 6 before that movies comes out. I degress, Breaking Dawn was good. I won't burn it, or take it back. I still love Jacob and I love how she wrote this one. I don't want to say too much because my mom still has to read this and I dont want to give her any clues. I'm just proud of myself for reading 4 books in such a short amount of time. To conclude, I enjoyed the book, it was a fun read. I'll call you Leslie and we'll chat.

Twilight ruled my weekend!!!

Now, Michael had been gone for a week to Texas and I had told him in no uncertain terms that on Saturday my mom & I would be at the first showing of "Twilight". Therefore he would be the man in charge of the boys. Well my mom fell off my deck at home on Thursday and I really didn't think that she would be able to come along with me. My wonder of a husband told me that he would be happy to come along with me. So we prepared to go to the 9:50am showing of the movie. Low and behold will miracles never cease!!! My mom was up, dressed and ready to head off to the movie by 8AM!! YEA!! I really did want to go with her because she's read the books too and waiting patiently for me to finish the last one. Yes, I'm still working on it. So, off the the Harkins at Tempe Marketplace. I was very excited when I saw that the 9:50 showing was in the super huge theater. The Cine-Capri. It's huge with awesome sound and curtains that they close then reopen right before the movie starts. I had to get a couple of pictures of us outside by the poster, just for posterity. how crazy are we all? I really loved the movie. It was fun to watch the book come to life. I know alot of people complained about Edward but I didn't mind him too much. It's just a movie. It's just a movie. It's just a movie that my husband bought me a shirt for and brought it all the way from Texas for me. I love him so. Yeah, I love him so much that I wanted to share the joy of the movie with him so we went and saw it together too. He thanked me the next day in a text when he said:"it's all your fault. I blame you" I asked him for what. He replied "I cant stop thinking about the movie" I told him he needed to read the books, to join the masses. He told me Back, you vile creature... I've told him about the other books, so we will see if he chooses to read them for himself.
