BREAKING DAWN!!!

My Husband is awesome.  The best.  Have I mentioned that before?  Well he is, seriously.  So, of course, I was excited about the opening of the latest movie in the Twilight Saga - Breaking Dawn...we always go opening night as couples with our great group of friends.  And, if you'll recall, my fellow Twilight Junkie and dearest friend, Kathryn, and I have always worn matching t-shirts to the movies on opening night.   We started just the two of us with Twilight,  and then convinced Mel and Lynds to join with us for New Moon.  We also made them for Eclipse, but they were a bit of a flop, so that night after Eclipse I decided- no messing around with iron ons anymore!  We are getting serious for Breaking Dawn! Ryan even came up with a saying that very night.  So a year and a half later, here they are...

Couples who watch Twilight together stay together!
Fan or not, you have to admit, it's funny.  Ryan designed the shirts and we had them printed at Extreme Graphics.  It was even more fun to have our husbands match us!  We had 10 couples in our groups, with 6 of us in matching shirts.  We got lots of compliments on our shirts and started thinking we could sell these babies!

Here's all the girls:  Lynds, Jana, Mel, Kathryn, Tonya,
Annette, Ashley, Staci, Kendra and Me.  I love all these girls!  I always say it, but I have the greatest friends!  They make waiting in line for Twilight movies, wearing silly awesome t shirts and having a thing for vampires so much fun!

Me & Kathryn - it's a tradition!

Lynds, Mel and Me.

Now, about the movie... I loved it!  It's funny, I've decided that out of the 4 books, my two least favorite books - New Moon and Breaking Dawn, are my favorite of the movies.  I was a bit worried about how they were going to play this movie out, but I thought over all they did a fantastic job.  LOVED the wedding, it was gorgeous!  And I thought they did an amazing job of making Bella look terribly sick.  And I have ALWAYS been ticked and disappointed at how they have portrayed Edward, but I thought it was improved this time.  Still not as good as book Edward, but a major improvement.  So there's my spill.

Love Ryan. Love Twilight.  Love my friends.  Love group dates.  Loved the movie.
Anyone want to go again?

When sucking on your toes is completely adorable and irresistible...

My Little Trick or Treaters

What is it about babies and their first holidays? They have no clue what's going on and us Moms go goo goo over them.  Well, I guess we just can't help it,  they are too adorable.  Here is my little pumpkin on his first Halloween...

I am a sucker for cute Halloween shirts, I love them!  I couldn't resist this one for Jensen, it says - Take me to my Mummy.  It was especially fitting for him, he has become SUCH a Mommy's boy.  Which you wont here me complain about,  I love it. 

Like I said, just so adorable! 

Here is my Darth Vader....Are you kidding me Mom,  DARTH VADER does not take off his mask and smile for his Mom!

My little witch and her best friend Rapunzel! 

Sweet little Tiger

Wow, sometimes I can't believe I have three kids!  Here they are all ready for Trick or Treating

Even though this is not the best picture of Madi I  had to include it.  As soon as picture taking was over, Madi put these stickers on her face and told everyone she was a "Pluto Witch"  the rest of the night.  Friends and neighbors were asking me- what's a pluto witch?  And all I could say was "your guess is as good as mine."  Whatever it was she sure had fun being a Pluto Witch.  (There were even more stickers on her forehead.) You can also see the pumpkin ring she was sporting.  Daddy brought it home for her and it was a priceless treasure!  Funny girl!

After the Trick or Treating...

Pierce with his goods

Madi immediately had to start counting out her candy. This makes me laugh because I can remember loving to sort out my candy and divide it into piles and count how many of each kind of candy I got. I loved that!

They had a great time Trick or Treating and had fun going along with Grant and Annie and Joey. We also enjoyed stopping in to see our Hall cousins that night. We had a great Halloween! And now it's 7 days later and I still haven't gotten my Halloween decorations down. I told Ryan today that I think I might have to start getting out the Christmas decor as I put Halloween away. At the rate I'm moving these days that may be the only way I can get Christmas decorations up in time!
