Another fabulous pic. from my talented bro michael.  Here is a shout out to you Mike !

Um, lets do it again

So the huge Twilight fans my friend Amanda and I are decided after all the good reviews we have read and our friends personal recommendations we would check it out again with more sleep and less hot chocolate in our system.  Well, I am still not a huge fan but maybe my first comment was a little harsh.  On the second go around we decided the music was still not great (keep in mind this is just my opinion), Edward's acting needs to improve for new moon, and the special effects were not great, in fact I posted this pic because this is pretty much the extent of their special effects =)  Anyways, to those who loved it or even liked it there are some good scenes and I hope they learn from this to make an awesome new moon I am sure we will be in line for that one at midnight as well.

The Day The Twilight Died

I just came from the midnight showing of Twilight.  Two mimes on crack could have produced a better screen adaptation.  My stomach still aches with the nausea this film gave me.  Where to begin ? Viewing this film was more painful than watching an adolescent boy go through puberty.  Bella is obviously on some sort of illegal substance or she has some major ticks that make forming a coherent sentence impossible.  Edward is either bipolar or mentally challenged, on second thoughts maybe a combination of both.  The special effects reminded me of vintage 80s Chuck Norris.  The music was a strange mix of Mexican novella and and Yani new age.  The editing obviously was done by an individual with ADD off their meds.  And last,  but not even close to covering all the  possible mistakes,  was the entire lack of character development, at the end you are left wondering um who were the main characters again.  Stephanie Meyers said in L.A. "If I went to see it in a theater I would have walked outside to buy another ticket."  I wonder why, was it because even though she wrote the book it still made no sense.  The upside to my evening was I do not think I have laughed so hard with my girlfriends in a long time, I can at least take that to my grave.  Peace out Kristin 

So we are back from our vacation to mexico don't have those pictures downloaded yet but here are some pictures of Joel's class trip to the pumpkin patch.  Joel says "we went onto the train and I picked a heavy pumpkin (mom had to carry Sydney on my back so the boys had to carry their own pumpkins) and we ate halloween doughnuts." 

Kristin says my jerk husband just scared the crap out of me by sneaking in the sliding door with a mask on, i have to go beat him now so I will post some more later this week.
