Back from the West
Well, we made it back without incident.But I am finding myself a bit overwhelmed! We have painters and plumber coming this week, plus unpacking and reorganizing and back to school shopping! AAAH!
Luckily I have an escape.
Maybe some of you have heard of Twilight?
This is a young adult fiction book written by Stephenie Meyer. She's LDS, but the book is not LDS. In fact, it's a romance between a human and a vampire who are high school seniors.
I was so engrossed I spend 2 days furiously reading my sister-in-law's copy--staying up late and getting up early. After heading to the grocery store last night to restock our fridge and pantry after 6 weeks, I went to our local borders and bought Twilight (so I could reread it more carefully) as well as the 2nd volume New Moon and the last installment Eclipse, which just came out this week.
So if you are looking for a last summer read, I highly recommend this trilogy. I can't wait to get back into it!
We had a wonderful vacation. Everything went so well. The kids adapted tremendously to each new situation. Many fun times with friends and family. Look forward to some pictures and highlights soon. I just couldn't wait to tell you all about Twilight though!

Ooh, I love this series!! There is supposed to be a 4th one too at some point. Can't wait! I feel like I need to reread the first three again! They are so good you can't put them down, but then again you don't want to finish!
Yay! I'm so glad you're back. It was great to see you at Church today with all your blonder-than-ever kids. Missed you!
Welcome back...it was fun seeing you at church:) HEY! I want your books when you are done with them...I am on the waiting list at our library...my sister was here a few weeks ago and went ON AND ON about them so I went to the library last week and said I WANT IT!:) I need one more good read before school starts!
So funny... I've read the first two and am going to borrow the third from a friend this week. It's almost embarassing that I'm so into teenage books about vampires, but I am.
There was a article about her and the books in the Wall Street Journal a few weeks ago. Eclipse was the top selling hardback fiction... it replaced Harry Potter.
