Breaking Dawn!

As most of you know, the 4th Twilight series movie came out on November 18th!

For each movie release Candis throws the BEST midnight-showing Twilight parties ever! Seriously. They are awesome. I have only been to two, but can attest.

She makes a iron-on decal and we all make matching shirts,* eat lots of food and enjoy the night!

Here are some little pictures to prove the awesome-ness!

I feel like I really pulled off the Kristen Stewart I-have-no-emotion-other-than-pain look here.

I thought you would like being so close to Edward, Carolyn...

and having your left hand on his thigh...

Jessica's eyes say it all.

*This year's shirts read: "Why am I covered in feathers?"

This is a story about how I am just a cliche girl

It was the most normal of days as I can recall.
Andrew was in Moab for work, that was all.
I came home from rehearsal at the break of midnight.
I opened the door, unloaded my things, and felt for light.

Then, a most peculiar thing happened.
As the lights turned on, I thought my eyes were to deceive me.
I saw a thing on the floor.
A wee of a thing. Just about 4 inches, no more.
It was brown and it was furry.
When saw what is was, you can imagine my worry!

I froze in my place and dialed for husband to make me feel safe.
Overcome with sheer angst I whispered, "there's a mouse in the house!
What do I do? I'm afraid he will run around in great haste!"
In his absence and his wisdom,
He called for his father come to my assistance.

In a very short time Leonard arrived, tools in hand,
To take on this beast I so frightfully feared.
In the large net he was utterly caught.
Leonard picked up the mouse
and flushed him right down the pot!

Now, some may laugh and point fun,
that I could not catch that little of one.
But mice are gross, and weird.
Cute from afar, or in a glass jar,
but not in your house, not on the floor.
I do not feel shame in my digust,
Only pure gratitude in those I can trust!

Halloween

It has been pretty crazy around here lately, and sadly we have not had time to plan for our usually awesome costumes for Halloween. For this year's holiday we spent it trick or treating with Lincoln, or should I say Darth Vader.

Like I previously mentioned, we had no costumes, so Lincoln and Shawn graciously lent us some of their own costumes from past Halloweens (or just from their dress up wardrobe)!
