Here is the link to the AZ Republic front page about the twilight premiere I went to on Tuesday but if you are only interested about what i said it's here... "The hardest job ever is to be a mother, and to have another job on top of that is really hard," says Meyer devotee Kristene Bowler, a 28-year-old Gilbert hairdresser who waited in line for 10 hours to nab a seat at the Valley's Twilight premiere. "And as much as I would love to see her at parties, I do understand that she has a family and I do want her to stay home and finish Midnight Sun. We want more - more, more, more." I am SOO glad she put the part of the Midnight Sun!!!
also I Do want to put up a few quotes that azcentral had on their website that was posted way before the the movie cam out that REALLY sums it up!!...by Bill Goodykoontz - Nov. 20, 2008 12:00 AM

Long on looks but short on story and, especially, meaningful dialogue Stewart is a fine actress ,but too often here when she is supposed to appear brooding and aloof she just seems bored. Pattinson, meanwhile, isn't particularly convincing, and his chemistry with Stewart doesn't quite make for the timeless romantic bond that it might have.There are glimpses of how that might have worked better - in the scene where Edward first admits what he is to Bella, for instance. But that's undercut by an awkward sequence in which he shows her what he looks like in the light. He's supposed to sparkle; instead, he looks as if he's covered in blond fur. (Jesse said he looked like a sugar cube!)
Other scenes fall short, as well. The less said about the Cullen family baseball game, for example, the better.

Still, Twilight will doubtless thrill fans of the books, who have long waited for its release. And while it's not a failure, everyone else will wish that the film had, if you'll excuse the expression, a little more bite.
now I cut and pasted this so if you wanna read the rest in which he describes the back drop it is http://www.azcentral.com/ent/movies/articles/2008/11/20/20081120twilight1121.html#comments.
But last night I took my Father-in-law and he liked it but saw how it could have been better too with the things i pointed out that they took out and he wanted more gore! But I did like it more the 2ND time! Seeing how I had already seen it and new the disappointing parts I just enjoyed and laughed this time! Thanks For a good night Calvin!

My Wait contiued...

So We FINALLY got to go in the Movie theater and then I started to get REALLY excited!As i have thought and looked through my movie companion guide and read some press reviews I am just sad! I mean i did like it but it could've been SO MUCH better!! Jesse thought it was great but he had no expectations At all!! What he saw was what he knew! As we watched the movie I was enjoying it but I was having such a hard time with them cutting out certain things!! NOW before you say it,I know I know you can't have all of the scenes or it'd be a four hour movie BUT.... WHY in the world do you cut out GREAT parts of the book and fill it in with stupid stuff!!!Like Bella DOES NOT have a cell phone!! or an IPOD which she is on BOTH ALL the time!And she Makes dinner for Charlie every night because that shows she is older than her years and she is a care taker! But they go to a diner every night for dinner where Stephanie Meyer makes a cameo! When they go to the beach the kids go SURFING!!! um... why? its also the 2ND time meeting Jacob and he DOESN'T tell her that night that Edward is a Vampire! BUT the Flashbacks to the old Era's were SUPER cool! Edward when he first was bitten and Esme too! of and the night they made the treaty in their old fashioned clothes! Also Edwards house is all wrong plus they don't cook food for Bella the first time they "meet" her. Alice only used her "vision's" 2x!! how bummed I was about that! Jasper didn't use his at all! I think he said one line!! Plus the relationship went super fast one day they hated each other, he left and then they were together!the Prom theme GAMBLING? Stephenie allowed that? and the STUPID dirty converse shoes she wore instead of the one beautiful high heel she was supposed to wear? But Kristen Stewart refused and she wouldn't have done the movie if she knew it was going to be so big world wide! The meadow scene was NOT like it was supposed to be at all and the AZ central review totally agrees! I can go on and on but either I am right or I am such a fanatical fan that I can't help but nit pick and I'll never be happy? So you'll have to put your 2 cents in Gigi let me know what you think! Also I didn't put a spoiler alert because this is stuff that was on the Internet, previews, or the movie handbook companion( that I bought while waiting in line for the movie an early B-day gift) . SO I am sorry if I offended anyone! Its stuff I've felt before I saw the movie and there is even MORE now that I have seen it. But will I see it again? Will I buy it when it comes out on DVD? You bet! Happy watching!

My Wait!

SO yesterday Jesse and I waited and spent 12 hours at Harkins Theater!! I won tickets to be the first in the country to see the new Twilight Premiere! I was really nervous about what we would do from 9 am till 7 pm when the movie started! But we had a Great time!!! Jesse went a watched Quantum of Solace and I met some REALLY cool girls in line, we hung out & talked, Serena TRIED to teach be sudoku!, Courtney and I drooled over my Movie Guide with ALL the movie pictures in it!! we took turns holding our spots seeing how we were 1st and 2ND in line!we would go stretch our legs, shop, or get food and trade off! And Serena's sister came all the way from the LA Premiere sorry Launa! Some of the Pictures are pictures of pictures of off the internet, cause they took away our phones so we wouldn't record anything! we were searched and wand ed to make sure! when we got in the movie theater they gave us pictures key chains and some of us won shirts! Including ME, it has the Cullen Crest on it! I was interviewed by the radio station and the News paper! It was so Fun. Everyone loved my Home made shirt which said Team Edward But my Heart belongs to Jesse for Eternity! NOW its Movie time! Finally!! It went by WAY to fast! it was good! I DEFINITELY HAVE TO SEE IT AGAIN!!
P.S. Serena Love my socks and sandles?!? THey made it in the Photo's! I could have cropped them but left them just for you!!

I WON Advanced Tickets for Twilight!!

Yes that's right!!! The Radio was having a contest and I won 2 tickets to the special premier of Twilight for TOMORROW!!!! Jesse and I are SUPER excited he went and picked them up earlier since he works down the street from the radio station! Jesse and I are going down to Tempe Market Place and we are going to hang out and wait to go see the premiere!! I'll be sure to blog about our experience! I am SO excited this is like Christmas and my Birthday all rolled up into ONE! plus I still have my tickets for the midnight showing on Thursday!!!!

Sweetest Words Ever

Today I heard Jake say the sweetest words ever! Earlier Jake had asked me if he was big enough to go to Baseball school because baseball is his favorite along with golf, soccer and basketball. then Jake came into the kitchen where Jesse and I were cleaning up and Jake and said " Daddio will you please teach me to play baseball?" Jes said sure and as I am blogging right now they are playing together! It makes my heart swell with love and pride that we are a family and love each other and will be together for Eternity! As a child of Divorced parents I never wanted that for my children that is what intrigued me to the Gospel. I know Divorce happens in the Church but everything is done to help make it work. Even if Jesse and I are never blessed with another spirit I am Grateful for the WONDERFUL little boy that MY Heavenly Father gave me! He is such a blessing, and is wonderful at Everything!! And it is hard to argue with him because he is logical and makes valid points; and I am constantly having my breath taken away from me with the things he says like how he remembers my Dad when he lived with Heavenly Father before he came here! I also need to learn Russian because of him! Last night I was trying to ask Dad if he wanted to get in the T U B and Jake yells I wanna get in the TUB!! this isn't the 1st time he has surprised us like that; a few months before he turned 2 I spelled mall to see if Jesse was interested before I announced it but Jake yelled I do!! He knows sign Language and my sister in law says he'll know Spanish so I figured Russian will maybe do the trick! Boy I sure love him!

TURTLES!!

Yes that's right we have turtles! 2 tiny baby water turtles. Jake helped name them, one is Spider man and the other is Squirt! Jake's Papa gave them to us the other day and I have been trying to learn all that I can about them. I need to take them with us to the "free Zoo" ( pet's mart) to know the name of them so I can learn about them. I do know I need a heater for their home when I come downstairs in the morning the tank is freezing!!! if anybody knows about turtles or has had them any tips would help! but aren't they ADORABLE?!?!?!

No Happy Ending Here

Jesse and I have been dying about today! This is such a turning point in our lives and for our children's! After we voted we turned off the TVs and radio, we just couldn't handle the suspense or the blow by blows commentary but we just got a text message from KT AR News Talk Radio that the candidate we had hope would win just conceded!! We have said before that if Obama was elected we had some serious things to consider! I'm sorry if I offend anyone but I am just sick with worry and grief about this!!I can not believe this is happening! I Pray so HARD that we will be OK, for our sake and our children's. Please Pray with us!
