Midnight Madness



Okay so we had a little midnight tailgate, at the local Tooele theatre last night, for the premier of our much beloved Twilight. I got hooked on the series, (like so many other crazed fans), in May when I attended a conference with Scott in Las Vegas. He was in meetings all day, and I was so excited to do nothing but relax. I borrowed my sisters copy of Twilight, at the last minuet while we were dropping the kids off at grandmas house. I was really reluctant to start it, considering it's size, and that I'm not a person who reads as a hobby. At the airport we were a little early and had a hour to kill, so I began reading after Scott said "just start it"! I read on the plane, a little before bed, woke up and read until dinner! I have never had a passion to read anything like I did this book. I loved it, and I loved that I loved reading it, because I never considered myself a reader. I found a new favorite pastime. I absolutely enjoyed reading the entire 4 book series. So a Twilight passion began. Its been so fun for me these past several months sharing thoughts and ideas about the books with my friends, and Scott (what a man, he has read them too!) Last night was a blast! We sat in the filled to capacity theatre for 2 hours before the movie began. We talked, laughed, Took pictures, and ate our bucket of popcorn, Junior mints, and drank our Dr. Pepper! Sure bliss! Thanks to my friends Tekarri, Steph, and Kristin who made this such a fun and memorable evening. Oh how was the movie you ask... It was great! I'm sad to say I've always been one to watch the movie, and not read the book. Now that I've read the book, and now watched the movie, I understand what they say about movies not comparing to the books. I really loved the movie, but I will always have my version of Edward and Bella in my own little happy place in my head!

Peaceful Jack moment


I just has to share this adorable picture of Jack from yesterday. He only got a 20 min. nap in the car yesterday. So while I was fixing dinner we put a show on for him, Oz (wizard of Oz), and he fell asleep in the chair. If that's not a Kodak moment I don't know what one is! We love these kind of Jack moments.

Mom & Me



Emma and I took a Mom & me art/ceramics class this Friday. Emma loves anything that has to do with arts and crafts. When she got a flyer from the city downtown trick or treat on Halloween, she was ready to sign up. They had only a few classes for kids, and we choose the painting/ceramics class. We had fun painting our projects together. Thanks for the date Emma, my little Picasso!

Family picture day







Family picture day...Oh I don't know if any of you feel the same way I do about it, but let's just say it's usually not my favorite day. What can we all wear that looks good together, without having to buy everyone a new outfit(although that would be nice!) Hoping that your children(and husband)realize how important this is to you and will smile and act happy for the half an hour or more it takes. And even though your freezing, try to act like your warm and trilled to be here! This year a friend of ours named Tania Finn, came out to Tooele and did photo's in the canyon. You can see the snow... of course the first snow fall of the season came that morning, a little early if you ask me(Oct. 11th), and turned our "fall family pictures" into winter ones. But I actually think the snow looks great, and I have to give the fam a little credit they were all in all pretty cooperative! Thank You Tania! tkdesigncompany.com
