New Moon x 2

Let me just start out by saying that I realize I may be a little obsessed and a little dorky.:)
- - -
I just happened to see New Moon two nights in a row. I went to the Thursday midnight showing with some friends and then I went Friday night with a couple co-workers. And it was just as good the second time around. Bryce was out of town so it was a good excuse to just hang out with the girls and drool over a 17 year old.:)
Let me clear something up- - I have always been an Edward fan while reading the books but when it comes to the movies I'm Team Jacob all the way. Robert Pattinson just doesn't really do anything for me and seriously. . . . . skinny & pale with a hairy chest or tan & smooth with an 8-pack?! That's a given!!

I thought the movie was awesome! The acting was 100% better and it followed the true story line much better than Twilight did. There were some funny lines in it that I wasn't expecting and the wolves were freakin' scary. I give it 5 stars!!

What did you think of the movie?

We LOVE visitors!!

. . . . . especially when they are as great as Mom & Dad Nielson!
They made the long 11 hour trip to Lovelock last Thursday and spent the whole weekend with us.
GOSH, it was so good to have them here!

On Saturday while my dad and Bryce went Chukar hunting my mom and I went on our semi-annual shopping trip in Reno!! It's usually a two or three day event but we managed to get nearly all of it done in one day. And YES.....we did stop to eat.....twice.;)
Once the shopping is done our favorite thing to do is come home & set-up all of our purchases on the bed and look at everything we got.:)

What can I say......we love to shop!!

It was so good to spend some time with my parents! Watching movies, eating out, eating in, shopping, hunting, laughing & playing Mexican train. . . . . . it was a great weekend!

Thanks MOM & DAD for coming to see us! We love you!
