Twilight!





I don't know about you, but my wife seems to disappear for a short while and reappear a few days later. This natural phenomenon was known as "Twilight time!" Brooke would devour and re devour all four of the books. I am somewhat of a curious person and wanted to know what all this Twilight was about, so I read them for myself. I have been hearing all about the new Twilight movie all summer. Brooke has been talking about it and Margaret has been updating everyone weekly with the new characters and movie trailers. Brooke and her friends went out to watch it on pre-opening night (Thursday at 12:00). Brooke decided she was going to dress up for the occasion. She looked pretty good in the dress. What is funny is that she borrowed it from a girl in our old ward that is maybe 5' 4". She had to let the hem out to wear it. Brooke loved the movie.

After all the hype from Brooke and students at school about the movie I ventured out to see what it for myself. Jeremy braved it with me, who knows what people at the movie place thought about that? But any way, we almost went to watch 007, but it didn't start for another 40 minutes. It definitely is a chick flick. The movie followed the book really close. I have to say it was pretty clean as well. The special effects were pretty bad (yes, I know they didn't have much of a budget, but it was still pretty bad). It is always hard to be as good as the book. I don't think I have ever seen a movie that was as good as the book. It just isn't the same.

Bub, I think you lost a few MAN points for going to that movie. Mindy went to the 12 am Thursday showing as well, but she told me the next day I wouldn't like it. You need to go see 007 just to get a few Man points back.

Brooke you look adorable! I agree the movie is not as good as the book but if you look at it separately- it is pretty fun!

Brooke looked amazing. She dazzled me.
