Went to see "Twilight"...

and I loved it!! Mandie and I had tickets for the 12:30 movie. We got there about 11:45 and stood in line ~ freezing ~ for about 15 minutes and then went in.Mike's sister met us and we waited till about 1:00 till they finally started the movie and left the theater around 3:00 a.m. Here's my review of the movie..."It was a little slow at the beginning, I was surprised at a few of the characters, the Japanese kid who played one of Bella's new friends{can't remember who}, and that Laurent was black. I didn't mind, was just a little surprised mostly because of the way I pictured when I read the book. At the beginning I was a little bugged by Edward, but he SO grew on me...and at times he was pretty funny and charming, the acting was some what lacking at times, but they stuck pretty true to the book. I thought Carlisle had on a little too much powder, Jasper was a little bug eyed at times, and Jacob was that boy from "Shark Boy and Lava Girl" so that movie kept rollin' in my head every time I saw him ~ and he had really white teeth. Overall I loved it! A movie is never as the same as the books and I thought they did pretty good. I can't wait to see the next one and now that I've seen the first one and "know" the characters I will know what to expect for the next one." So there ya go... I am a 35 year old nerdy, wife & mom and a Twilight Fan. I am addicted. I will buy the movies when they come out on DVD ~ unless by chance the other two suck, but I doubt they will. Thanks for going with me Mandie! It was fun {though the string cheese and water sucked..I wanted POPCORN}!! I also went to the Unique Boutique today at Bonneville High School. Dropped about a $100.00 but I got a few things for Christmas for the girls, bought my self a watch, the one you can pick the face and interchange the bands ~ a cute pink, green, & brown one. This is actually the first time in many years I actually broke down and bought stuff. Usually I just go and browse. Jace has a game tonight at 8:30 so I have about 7½ hours to do bills, clean house ~ Jace made waffles while I was gone and overfilled the waffle maker so there is waffle mix everywhere~ do laundry, clean the girls room ~ they have this habit of changing and trying on every piece of clothing in their closets and then just throwing it on the floor, and to quote Hannah..."it's just sooo much work to clean it and hang everything back up". If anyone has any suggestions on how to get a 9 and 4 year old girls to clean their rooms, please send them my way!! Love em' more than jellybeans and lollipops but either they are way spoiled or lazy little ladies!! {I know and it's my fault cause I let them get a way with it}! Ohh, what do ya do!! Either deal with it or start drinkin' ~ and we don't make enough to start drinkin' ;) so I'm off to deal with it! Anyway it's going to get busy ~ as soon as I finish this post ~ things will be flying and kids will probably be screamin' ~ you know with the usual "that's not mine, he did it, he got it out, she played with it last, why can't she help, I unloaded the dishwasher last week" and on and on and on!! But that my life, it's crazy and I love it!! So thankful for...1) Saturdays ~ especially a day like today 2) bought a few things for Christmas 3) Thanksgiving is in 6 days. And some really exciting news...I 'm going to be an aunt again!! Blake and Shannon are expecting their first baby around June or August of next year!! We are so happy for them!! Congratulations guys!!
