The perfect ending to the perfect series.....

Aw....I just finished this last night, and yes it was fantastic! For those of you who have read the first three, I hope you get your hands on this one soon if you haven't already. I won't spoil anything, I just wanted to express that I love this series and I am so sad that its over now. It took me longer this time around to read the 754 pages, maybe my subconscious didn't want the time to go by too fast and have it be over too quickly! This isn't actually the cover they ended up with, which in my opinion is so much better than what they did choose. If you are interested you can check out the website http://www.stepheniemeyer.com/ for more insights. There is another book she is still writing called Midnight Sun, that is Edwards point of view from the 1st book, I read the 1st chapter and it sounds great already. So hooray for the Twilight Series, and it your not a fan....become one already!!!!

Stanley Reunion

We went on a camping trip to Stanley this weekend for the Thacker Reunion. As much as I just love to camp, it was as good as could be expected. We were able to spend time with Justin's brothers and sisters, which is the whole reason anyhow. I don't know why I didn't seem to get one picture of the entire trip, but alas, no photos. I had my camera in the car, and just never got it out. I am mad at myself, but at least we have the memories of it in our minds......??? We didn't really prepare ourselves or the kids for the very very cold night, we all froze and slept on the queen mattress together to stay warm. (and it was oh so comfortable) But overall, the kids had so much fun, and that's all that really matters right? I'm not sure if I will ever be one to love camping, but at least Justin still loves me enough to take all my griping. I was able to read my book (breaking dawn) so I was entertained for the most part. On the way home, we saw 2 elk and 4 deer!!! We almost hit 3 of those deer, which wasn't fun. Its good to be home and have everything and everyone clean again!!!
