Twilight Exclusive

Thanks to Marci...I am one of the many, many addicts (probably one of the oldest too!). As soon as I started reading Twilight, I knew I was a total goner! Marci even has a Twilight Blog!
When Kayley & Scott were home for Christmas, Kayley began reading the series (while she didn't have classes) and the poor thing hardly slept!
She finished the first one in a flash so we (the girls) could go to see the movie together while she
was on her Christmas break from BYU. It was so fun!
Holly is just starting to read them...bet she's hooked already.
Well I just wanted to share the news!
Preorder this item today and it should arrive on or just after 03/21/2009.

A Book for Nie

Remember Nie ? I was visiting one of my favorite blogs, Daring Young Mom, and found out about this new bookthat was put together by these Great Bloggers and all of the proceeds will be used to help Nie Nie and her family tackle their rapidly accumulating medical bills. Thanks Navel Gazing At It's Finest!

Girl's Night Out

Saturday night was so fun. My mom, me, Marci, Kayley and Hope all went to see the movie, Twilight.It was the first time for my Mom and Kayley -who had just finished the first book and has now already finished the second one.
I know ... it's scary. Mike took care of the little girls so Marci could go. It was great and I must say I enjoyed the movie more this time around.


I still have to see it one more time with Mark. He read all four books ... my Hero ♥ .

a total goner

Usually every Monday afternoon Mark drives Hope to her Bassoon lesson. Here's a video if you've never seen or heard a Bassoon before. (I hadn't until Hope decided she wanted to play it.)



Well not last Monday, I begged to take her so I would have an excuse to sit and read instead of cook, clean, catch up on calls.... just sit and read none other than, you guessed it "Twilight". I do enjoy listening also. Her teacher, Marilyn Chappell, is amazing. Sometimes Marilyn will accompany her on the piano or play a duet with her. I love it. Well, just as Hope's lesson ended, I finished it. Perfect. Only I couldn't wait to get my hands on the next book. "New Moon". I was starting to panic because I thought Hope still had a copy of it . She had already returned it to her friend. Oh no! This couldn't be! Marci bailed me out and borrowed her friend, McKell's copy. (Well, that's the least she could do, since she got me started on this crazy addiction) Thanks McKell!
So I'm back in business or ... a goner.... depending on how you see it.

Help, I'm Drowning!

I know, I know, I must be the last person in America to start the Twilight Series by Stephenie Meyer.
Marci loaned me the first book in the series and has been so adamant that I read it! Well, now I'm hooked...like I have time to be addicted to a book on top of all my other "things"!

Scripture Study

Well, you'd be so proud of me. I'm making some
progress with my goals.
or as mom would say, "aren't you proud of yourself".

Next week (Monday morning)I start piano lessons. I can't wait. I bought my book and I'm ready to learn! And today I went to Scripture Study. It's every Tuesday at 9:15 at the Church. I love all the ladies and enjoyed the discussion. Now if I could just get up the gumption to tackle the PHOTOS.....
