admitting what you did is always the first step. so here goes:
we did it.
we. watched. twilight.
(gasp!)
i have been almost pleased with myself for not jumping on the twilight bandwagon for all these years. i'm such a rebel.
but the other night our friend, cody, told us we needed to watch it and he sent us home with his twilight dvd. and yes, cody is a boy!
in all honesty, i really didn't think i'd like twilight. i don't usually like far fetched stories - things that are fantasy or sci-fi usually frustrate me. so that has been one of my excuses for not becoming a twi-hard. i also have used the excuse that i'm not a big reader. i like to read magazines and creep around on blogs, but i'm not one to sit down and read a book. a girl i used to work with leant me her twilight book a couple years ago. i read the first 2 pages to matt as he drove me home from work, and then never opened the book again. it stayed in our glovebox for a year, until dallas asked for her book back. sorry dallas. i still feel bad about that!
anyways, the big question is DID WE LIKE IT?
well... matt is pretty disappointed that we didn't get to see any werewolf action in this movie. and i had a hard time seeing past jacob's awful hair. but those things aside, we both agree twilight was much better then we had expected. and although i don't think we will be camping outside the theater, adorned in team edward t's, when the final movie is released, we are definitely interested to see what happens next.
speaking of vampires, did you know that matt's family history can be traced back to the real count dracula? yep it can.
chet got a halloween card from his grandma leavitt yesterday. he loved (eating) it.
thanks grandma!
