Twilight Movie Review


Ok...so for my birthday Mike and I went and watched Twilight. It wasn't the book but I liked it. I don't want to give away any spoilers so this may be short and sweet. Mike thinks that he liked it better than I did. I don't know about that. Kristen Stewart is the perfect Bella. She did an awsome job. I still have my reservations on Robert Pattinson, I didn't love him for Edward...which very well could be the reason why I didn't love the movie. The Humans were all great. I loved all of her high school friends and think they completely met my expectations. As far as the vampires go...I loved the nomads...and I loved the changes they made to that part of the story. I wish we saw a little more of the cullens and that they spoke more. I wanted more Alice and Emmett because I love them! Jasper was a little awkward but I understand what they were going for so it was fine. Rosalie did a good job, but she wasn't my Rosalie. I did think there were a few wierd transition/flow areas in the movie. I wouldn't exactly say that is was slow moving...but it didn't keep me captivated and on the edge of my seat either. I understand that to make the movie more exciting they were going to have to change some scenes. There were a few scenes that they changed that I wish they would have suck more closely to the book. Not necessarily exactly like the book...but closer than they did. Mike wants me to add that the acting of Bella was better than expecting and the scenery masde him want to live there. The rain turned me off but...thats ok we just bought a house and don't plan moving anytime soon so I shouldn't be too worried.

Our House

Ok...so before I tell you about our new house, I have a question. I signed up on blogger a while ago..and since then you can see when people last updated their blog under their link. I was just wondering how I go about adding that to my blog???


As I said in my last post, Mike and I are in the process of buying a house. I am so excited! It is in Lehi so we aren't moving too far. It has 5 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. It is fully landscaped and finished which is a good thing. We will definately have plenty of space for the two of us and a few little ones.

Here are some pics.




Once we get all moved in I will post what we have done with the place.

NEWS!

So for all of you who keep checking to see if I have updated lately this is for you. Tomorrow we are getting DSL so I should be able to blog more frequently. Also Mike and I have put an offer on a house and it was accepted...so if all goes well we will be in OUR house by Christmas. Almost all the things I was excited for in the next year as published in a previous post are possible going to happen within a month. My parents got home the end of October, Twilight movie comes out in a couple weeks, and I am getting a house...if only the baby thing would happen. Stay tuned!
