I never picked a “side” when reading the books but I did after seeing this movie! My daughter and three of our friends went to see New Moon last night. I know all the little girls are fighting over who is cuter; all I saw was the crushed look on Jacob’s face (Taylor Lautner) when Bella told him it was always Edward. Broke my heart! Have to say that movie was better than book.

I love old movies, and my daughter is starting to enjoy them, also.  Today, we watched Penny Serenade.  Some consider this a “Christmas” flick and that could apply.  But it’s just a dang good movie.  Cary Grant is great.

A whole family crew (my daughter, two aunts & two cousins) went to see 2012 today. So it may not have been the best storyline or whatever the critics look at (like I care) but it was great fun! It was a little longer that it needed to be, and at times there was so much action I thought I would pee my pants! But great, fun movie and John Cusack…cute and good as always!

I went out with some friends tonight and saw Couples Retreat. Was funnier than I expected. And directed by Peter Billingsley (Ralphie from A Christmas Story).

And just in time for Halloween! The kids and I went to see Zombieland tonight and I have to say…one of the better zombie movies! I know there is only “Shaun of the Dead” to compare it to (which is a GREAT movie), but it delivers just like Shaun did.

My daughter has turned into a John Cusack freak, so tonight we watched Serendipity. Such a cute romantic story. We gave it two snaps up!

The girl and I are going to have some fun with a little girl time. First up, a movie tonight:

Then tomorrow … well, I haven’t really thought it all out!  We have a repairman coming over.  Maybe I can get her to style my hair!  lol

Sorry for not posting much lately.  Life can be hectic.

I have some friends coming over tonight and we will be watching a movie:

We are going to have junk food (pizza! chips & dip! yum), catch up, and watch this movie that I have been waiting to see since spring.

On the book reading front, I have been reading:

A movie just came out based on this book, but it is called “Sex Drive.” So far, I’m not overly impressed with the book. It is an okay read, just not sure that I am the target audience. I do like James Marsden so maybe the movie would be more entertaining, LOL.

Friday night is Movies at the Park:

Mom and the girl haven’t seen it yet, though the boy has.  We’re gonna make him go and get him away from wow at any rate.

Saturday night:  ASU RedWolves v. Louisiana-Monroe.

Busy busy…and still need to decorate for Halloween.

Today, we are going to see:

We are big fans of The Mummy and The Mummy Returns. While the reviews have been unkind, we can still hope.
