Twilight Mania




Mason and I went on our Mom/Son date to see the movie Twilight! I have read the entire series and loved them so much! Mason has read just the first book, Twilight! We bought tickets a week before it was out. We went to The District in South Jordan because they have assigned seating. So no waiting in any lines!!!! We went Friday morning @ 11am. The theatre was full and the excitement was almost too much! Mason enjoyed it a lot! I started off hating it because nobody looked like I had pictured and it seemed a bit hokey! They should of hired the director that does the Harry Potter movies because those are done so well. It ended up growing on me a bit to where I upgraded my opinion to "it was ok but disappointing". It was still fun to be just with Mason and we were able to talk without any interruptions on the drive to and from the theatre.

Vocabulary Word of the Day

Just wanted you all to know what my 6 yr old, Brady, taught me today. After school he told me that it is ok if someone ever calls him a jerk because it stands for junior educated rich kid--I thought I was going to die laughing. What a funny boy! Apparently it is going around the school because Mason and Connor had heard it too. Fun day with my boys!

Happy Haunted Halloween











I sure do LOVE Halloween! This year was especially fun because we are in a new neighborhood and ward so we trick or treated our new stompin' grounds and then went to Pleasant Grove and trick or treated in our old stompin' grounds. Our ward had a Halloween party on the 24th and Aunt Maxine had a Halloween party on the 25th. So we have been partying it up lately! Mason was a Jedi Knight, Connor was Indiana Jones and Brady was a Grim Reaper. John also dressed up in his Jedi costume Halloween night. I actually wore a witches hat I made but forgot to take a photo.
