New Moon Party

If you were reading this blog back in November, you probably recall me going to see the midnight showing of New Moon with a few friends. Well, since the DVD came out this Saturday, it was only appropriate for us to get-together and watch it again!

My sister Rachel hosted the party and I was a little startled when I walked in her house and noticed a special guest out of the corner of my eye.

We really made this a New Moon party with themed plates, posters, magazines and pictures. We also enjoyed pizza, caesar salad, and plenty of movie candy & popcorn!

Rachel made us really comfortable by combining the couches from her living and family room and providing us with blankets and snuggies to cuddle up and enjoy the movie.

After the movie and before heading home we we gathered around the guest of honor...

and indulged in a few more snacks!

Acting Like I'm 15 Again

This weekend was huge for two reasons. First, and most importantly, because I attended my church's women's conference.

Second, because 20 of my friends and I stood outside in a VERY long line, in the cold, to see the 12:01 AM screening of New Moon!

The movie actually follows the book pretty well and I thought it was way better than the first.

By the time I got home it was 3:30 AM and I was so hyped from the long day and stressing about needing to be up by 7:00 to get back to the conference, that I did not sleep at all!

It was still totally worth it!
