TWILIGHT MOVIE

I can't believe I am the first to post anything about the TWILIGHT MOVIE!!!
IT WAS AMAZING!!! INTENSE AND MADE MY HEART SKIP A BEAT MANY TIMES WHETHER BECAUSE OF THE CHEMISTRY BETWEEN EDWARD AND BELLA OR THE FRIGHT FROM A UNREMEMBERED MOMENT!
I can't wait for the rest of the movies to be made!
We (Sierra and I and 2 friends) went on opening night, NOV 21, 2008 at 10 PM and stood in line for 1 hour and sat in the theater for another hour! It was FUN just to be part of all the EXCITEMENT!!! I finished the last 5 pages of TWILIGHT just before they seated us. I have a few pictures I will post later.
It moved FAST but it had to, to tell the most important parts of the story! I thought it was really well done and the director stayed true to the story where it really mattered!
I want to see it again and will definately OWN IT!!!:)

The Lake in the Autumn

Remember I told you that I wanted to show you the transformation of one my favorite places to walk as each Season came? Well here is another change. Autumn
There is less wild life there right now. A few ducks and sometimes a few geese and too fast to take pictures of rabbits!
This was the 3rd week in October that I made it up there to walk around the lake.

Halloween Night is ALL about DRESSING UP!!! okay the CANDY too!

On Halloween we went to our annual Fall Harvest dinner.
A chili and cinnamon rolls cook off and then there were
games for the kids and then Trunk or Treat before it
got too dark!
I took my camera and had a blast! We had pirates and
princesses and witches and fairies and ninjas and
supergirls and cheerleaders and pioneers and pumpkins.
Most were camera shy! We even had a 2 month old Hotdog.

Doug dressed as a Chef he called himself Disco Stew?!



Sierra created her costume idea..... Can you guess?



She was Mrs.Phantom of the Opera. She loves that movie and goes around singing the songs from it all the time with her i-pod!

I was a Hippie / flower child!
I even got my face painted...



It was a fun night and the weather was nice!
Sierra went to a Halloween party turned sleep
over for the girls and Doug and I watched
Beetlejuice and then Doug was done. He went
to bed early! I stayed up and watched Hallween
and some Zombie movie and then cartoons to take
away all the scary movies I had watched. When
I got home I had eaten 6 mini candy bars, Just 1
of every kind I liked! Well it was enough to
give me insomnia so I couldn't sleep and I
was up until 4AM

We only had about 4 trick or treaters.
I guess when you don't get home until around
8pm most the little kids are gone! But now
we have this HUGE bowl of most of my favorite
kind of candy bars right in the house! SCARY!!!
I got canker sores from all the candy I ate
prior to Halloween so that is helping me use self control!
On to the next Holiday.....

Happy Halloween!!!!

Celebrating 17 years of Wedded Bliss honestly!!!!

Yesterday was Doug's and my anniversary.October 26th 1991. It is hard to believe that is has already been 17 years and then again it is hard to believe it has ONLY been 17 years.... since Doug is so much a part of me!
I was looking through some pictures of the day we were married and I thought I would share them with you.

Doug looked so handsome on our wedding day!

I felt so beautiful that day!


I love that someone captured this moment when I saw him and gave him a look like "Ready or not here I come!" I was so Excited to be marrying Doug!

This is what I saw as I walked down the isle...Doug waiting for ME!!


We were so HAPPY to be married!!!


Who can forget the cutting of the cake...
All the promises not to smear cake in eachothers faces.. what fun would that be... so you do!


Our rings




Finally after all the millions of gizillions of pictures are taken and you realize later that some you wanted did not get taken.., oh well.
You finally get to leave on your honey moon.

It has been a blissful 17 years!! I look forward to eternity!
