Twilight saga "New Moon"


Yes I did it!! I was one of the first to see the movie before it actually came out. I have read most of the books, and I think they are good but I am not one that is obsessed with them. Cascade Collision, a company we do business with was having a "Customer Appreciation Day" at the theater just for the showing, they were kind enough to give me 4 tickets. So of course we had to have a girls night out. We went to dinner then we got to the theater at 6:15 for the 8:30 showing. What a mad house. People were wearing shirts about New Moon, one guy was even dressed like Edward, (ya wasn't doing it for me) people going around selling jewelry. CRAZY. We had a great time. The movie was amazing and I must way that I am now a fan of Team Jacob. Thanks girls for a fun evening.

Amazing Day

Saturday was an amazing day. We attended a baptism, did all the yard work for the winter, washed the cars. Then that evening we had our adult session of Stake Conference, we had the pleasure of having Elder Wilkenson an area 70 along with Elder Robert D Hales. It has been 20 years since we have had an Apostle come to talk to us. Both of their talks were amazing. It was nice to see them in a more casual setting, Elder Hales was so funny. He opened up the evening to Questions and Answers, which was a little different, but good. After the meeting Mike went to visit with some people, and Myself, Tami and Cathy were visiting with others, when all of a sudden Mike whistled for me and as I turned around there was Elder Hales standing right next to me talking to Baby Ava. He said "You must be the center of attention" he then touched her hand and said to her "I just touched your hand and you just touched mine so when you get older you can tell everyone that." I touched his shoulder and told him how much I appreciated his talk. What an amazing man. WOW!!! What an experience.
