Finally . . . . .

So, a group of us finally went to the movie this morning. My Lobster, her three girls, MJ, Jubee and me. We have been preparing for this for ever! In the most recent days the girls made their movie t-shirts complete with iron-ons and fashionable cutting down the side. Lobster wasn't too excited about the cutting, but hey, they looked adorable. I have watched these girls grow up together and flourish into beautiful women. T started this whole Twilight phenomenon in our group, damn her (finger waiving). This book series has bridged gaps between moms and daughters, I think it just really gave us something in common that we could talk about.

MJ, Lobster's co-worker that has turned into a good friend, has two adorable boys, 11 and 9-ish. MJ was worried about them going to a movie alone that started 15 minutes after and ended 15 minutes before ours. Well, it was either they go with us, or Bubba goes with them. Doesn't he look super excited?

Comments on the movie? Not sure what to say. The scenery was fantastic! Rob Pattinson did grow on me a little. I really liked Charlie and Sam. "I'm gonna roll you into the mud" "I'm gonna run over your ankles" Jasper, come on! You have unlimited wealth, knowledge and a smoking hot girlfriend, SMILE! Emmett, mmmm, I may need a moment alone. James, too bad he ends up dead, would like to see some more of him half clothed, must see Never Back Down.

In all, the movie was slow. Maybe because I knew what was coming or because there was so much dialog and not enough action. Oh well, glad I saw it and glad it's over too.

Always speaking the truth . . . . .

K - so tonight is Aunt Athena Tuesday. Littlest never ceases to amaze me. When I picked her up tonight she pointed out which teacher is her favorite. Then she said these random things during the evening:

- "Aunt Athena, I have a teacher that has your same name." "Cool!" "What is your full name?" "(enter my name here)" "My full name is (enter her first, middle and last name here)"

- "I love my daddy because he is so cute!"

- She pouted and didn't want to get out of the car when she didn't get to carry any of the dinner into the house. I showed her that I wasn't carrying anything either, she got out.

- Bubba walked into the house and she blurts out this: "Girls rule and boys drool!" I about fell off my chair.

I really think she was sent to the wrong mother, she should have been mine!

PS - Little wouldn't sit still AT ALL. Little Mr Eris was ecstatic when he could resort to the man cave downstairs for some Bubba video game time!
