Twilight, Saturday and Thanksgiving....

So Twilight review: I liked it.  I think the directing was kinda eh and the acting had it's sad spots.  There were lots of places I thought Edward could've acted a little tougher.  But overall I give it almost 2 thumbs up.  With the budget they had and the fact that the book is written from inside Bella's head I think they did all right.  My least faves were Alice and Jasper but I really like Bella and Emmett...  (oh and I hated the forest scene and the running and tree climbing.  I thought they dropped the ball on the special effects on those....  just my opinion though...)


Anyways- Saturday we went up to Ogden to the Pic-A-Part yard Dan's family owns up there.  It has this really cool river that runs behind it that we went and played at for a few hours then we went out to dinner with Dan's cousin and his wife.  It was really fun and a good way to spend a Saturday!  I didn't take any pictures though and I wish I had cuz it was so pretty up there!


And I am so excited to go home for Thanksgiving tomorrow!  I love being around family and both our parents so I'm thrilled to get almost a week.  The kids are beside themselves with excitement!  We're snagging a ride on Dan's grandpa's little airplane so we don't even have to drive the 6 hours!  I'm stoked!!!

I'm so nervous the movie is going to ruin the books for me, but I feel like I have to see it regardless.

So, are NKOTB on tour again? I didn't know they made a comeback, but that sure would have been a sight to see!
