Twilight

I just finished the Twilight series this morning. In all I have to say I liked it. As I read, like in most books I have read, there were times of frustration with certain characters especially the main character in this book. She bugged me at times but there is usually one of those types for me in any book I read. So now that I am done I allowed myself to watch the trailer for the movie. I had to wait till I was done otherwise watching it may have ruined the faces of the characters I had already in my head. I enjoy my imagination more than Hollywood's. So here is a trailer, I don't know if it is official. It was the best one I saw on YouTube, so I hope you enjoy. This will be one to look forward to in December and before that the new book in August.

Are You Prepared?

Today my mom nudged me to read a chapter in this book about stocking your pantry without draining your pocket. It was surprisingly witty and fun to read, along with great useful information. A great resource for any home. This will be my next book purchase. You can get it for a decent price here.

Super Why! Hip Hip Hooray











Nora and I look forward most mornings to watch our new favorite show, Super Why! When it comes on we jump up and try to dance like the characters on it. I actually think it has motivated Nora to try to sound out words when we are reading her books. Mind you, my child is only two!

To premise before you watch, Super Why! has four main characters that try to tackle problems in Story Book Villiage. To solve their problems they look to books that play off of popular fairy tales. We never get tired of our reading adventures with this one. Hope you enjoy as much as us.
