More from Eclipse

OK, so I'm trying to relive Eclipse in my head. I want to see it again already. It's almost like the other night was a dream and I want to make sure it was real. I went in search of pictures from the movie and these were some of my favorites.

Obviously I love all the Edward pics! Literally makes me sigh...

Always love the scenes in their field. Especially when Edward is trying to convince Bella to marry him and she keeps saying no. Stupid girl!

Ahh, this scene on the bed... very hot!! Then it turns into the best proposal ever!! I Love Edward!!!
I'm not sure exactly what was happening in this one, but why wouldn't I love the idea of cuddling up with Edward?
And, I had to include this one of Seth. He has to be the cutest thing I've ever seen!!

Anyone want to go with me again? Soon?

The Premier

I know most of you have already seen this, but I too must post our pic from last night. The premier of Eclipse was amazing. And seeing Twilight and New moon first was the icing on the cake! I was commenting to Erica that it was awesome just to be sitting in a room with 500 or so other people that were just as happy and excited as I was. You could feel the energy in that room. It was also nice to know that there were so many other people who loved it as much as I did! And that many of them were my age or older! Yes, there were even middle-aged men there!

It was a great night. One that I won't soon forget. Also, I must say how grateful I am that my kids are at camp right now because I have been absolutely worthless today. I don't do well with little sleep. It was worth it though! Soooo worth it!! Thanks to Erica and Annalynn for experiencing it with me!!

And as for the whole Team Edward, Team Jacob thing... I think we figured it out last night. It seems that Jacob's fans are younger girls and Edward's are more Mom's like me. Here's the reason, Jacob's still a boy. An admittedly gorgeous boy with a smokin' hot bod, but a boy just the same. Edward on the other hand is a man. A mature man who knows what he wants and who he is. God, I love Edward!!

Looking forward to the release of Breaking Dawn part 1 on Novemeber 18, 2011. You can bet that I'll be there!!

The power of the pen

As soon as my kids learned to pick up a crayon, they have both loved to draw and write. Logan began drawing me pictures when he was just a little thing. He started using them to convey emotion too. Especially when he was angry. Some of those pictures scared me a little (blood and guts!)

Then came the note writing. There are signs all over Logan's door telling everyone who can and cannot come in, if they have to pay, etc.

Ellie, being much newer to writing has really just started using this form of expression. Here are 2 of her latest. The first is hanging on her door. She was mad at Logan when she made it. I thought it was so cute!

If you can't read it (pencil is hard to photograph in a dim hallway) it says, "Logan may never come in my room agin for the holle summr No love (by the heart) Brokcen hart" ( I think the writing and spelling is pretty good for someone who just turned 6!)

The second she gave me last night. Not sure what I did to deserve that, but it was nice to get a fond note rather than an angry one! (translation: Mommy is nice, never mean and thoughtful)

Just love my kiddos (especially when they're at camp! Ha!)

My Edward "collection"

I have to justify myself by saying that I didn't purchase ANY of this stuff. The universe just keeps bringing it to me. (Well, actually Erica gave me the doll and the little box). The other 2 things we just got this weekend in Burger King kids meals. Does anyone else think it's weird that they have Twilight stuff as the prize in a kid's meal? I didn't think their fans were that young. Maybe it's more for the Mom's like me!!

The crest is actually a giant ring with Edward's hologram picture inside. Maybe I'll wear it tonight! Ha!

The last item is a wallet. Logan got this one. He's actually using it too! It's not specifically "Edward", but I decided not to hold that against it.

I may just have to take the "kids" to burger king a few more times and see what else I get!

Gordan Alfonzo

I just love calling him by his whole name. It makes me smile every time. Logan gets mad at me though, so I have to do it in private. I was checking on him today after the kids left. He's been moved onto Logan's desk in his room. Stuart didn't like eating with him on the kitchen table. Can't imagine why? I must admit I've grown pretty fond of him. Who knew? Anyway, Erica suggested that I take another pic with something in it for scale. So I did. He likes to "hide" in the rocks we gave him. Pretty big, huh?This is his little belly. I like his little legs sticking out and his little mouth.

While I was at it, I decided to take one of him with Edward. That made me smile too. :-) Tomorrow, Edward...

It's almost here!!

22 hours and counting...

"Dad Life"

This is the funniest freakin' thing I've ever seen!!
