HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL MY AMERICAN SIBLINGS!
and Happy Thursday to everyone else!
Even though I am not American, I still want to say, that I am VERY thankful for all of your here. I am very thankful to SM, for writing such a wonderful series of books, which brought us all together - my lovely Lexicon Family!!
So, let's see if this picture thing works for me...
[EDIT - nope it didn't LOL].
So here is a litte
Rob lovin' for you all to swoon over!
Anyway - to the posts!!
Desiree - Did you manage to go see BD2 with your mom while visiting her?
Lulu - Hi there! Even though you can post often, it's nice to see some fly-by posts
Hope you are well!
Tracy - I really enjoyed your review of BD2! Glad you enjoyed the cottage scene as well. I defo think lots of close-ups somehow makes scenes seem even
more intimate, than if we were watching a full on non-PG13 rated scene. (
Lynne - did you enjoy this scene more the second time round?).
I agree with you about your Jacob comments - glad that MR didn't change the end of the story to all about him (and Renesmee). Really glad that changed the comment to "should I call you dad now?" as well LOL! As much as Jake does annoy me in earlier books, Taylor totally nails him. He is Jake!
I can't believe I forgot to mention that scene!! During the battle, when Bella looks at Emmett and he crossed the field with them to walk towards the Volturi. Glad they kept that in!
And agree with all of your battle scene comments - all the heartbreaking scenes! Especially Garret holding back Kate, and when Seth dies... that howl
Enjoy your Thanksgiving trip to your in-laws!
Sandy - Nice to see your familar red text
Grayce - I forgot that Edward didn't sparkle during Isle Esme.. aw, that would have been nice to see! I just really loved the sparkle effects in Eclipse..wish they kept that one!
I hope everything settles with your boys' mom.. will she be ok with the younger one coming to live with you? You seem like a very understanding parent!
Susie wrote: I was writing my speech for this week's Toastmasters meeting. I usually write it a couple of days before so I have time to practice it. It's called "Just the Right Age" and it's about how I feel about age. Some of you have something to do with this...
Susie - I'm intrigued... do we get to read it?? (I know, I know.. I am rubbish at emailing you back! I WILL do it this weekend!!)
That's really nice that DaugherDear will be able to talk to you all today. How is she enjoying her time away? Has she got a blog like last time?
I like the idea of Black Friday, but obviously we don't have that here! Are the sales
really as good as everyone says?
Ok. I have a daft question. What IS a yam??? LOL. Is that what one of your pics are? Cos I don't recognise them... LOL.
Amanda Beth - I have a HG fanfic question for you... I haven't read any, but I was wondering if you have any recs? LOL. Hope you don't mind me asking! I generally only read AH Twilight fics (not always though, but I do like them)..not sure what the equilalent of HG this would be? LOL.
Btw, your new siggy is gorgeous!!
Sarah - I know what you mean! When I first read MS, I was really angry at whoever leaked it too...ruining it for us all! I really hope SM will release it, but I honestly don't think she will
It would be a best seller as well... (
Austin - I KNOW! As if it couldn't end at a
worse part!!).
That would be great if you joined the HH fb page! Don't worry, it is a closed group so only people we are invited can join. It's just us here (apart from the couple folk that don't have fb). No strangers - all Twilight lovers!!

Even though I agree with you...
After showing him all of that, Bella says; "Now you see, noone has ever loved someone as much as I love you" (not the exact line). But, because of that, that little piece did make sense.
She was showing him exactly how devastated she was when he left, because she loves him that much. Really didn't like that bit at first, but I can understand how it makes sense...
Paula - Yeah I guess that makes sense. But I still think Edward would have liked it better if she showed him when he proposed to her instead (or the LegHitch.. hahahaha!).
Lynne - I agree - I LOVE the score! And the score to Twilight, so yeah, love Carter Burwell LOL. I think it is so nice of him to have done the first & the last..full circle!
As much as I enjoyed the Cottage Scene, I have to agree about the fairy dust around Bella...the only bit that made me cringe!
Don't worry; we will all recommend your book! I hope you want me to spead the world here & not just in America...?
Ashley - Congrats on the new job!! I know you have probably said..but what are you planning to do at college? Where are you hoping to go?
Sean - Sorry about your grandma
I hope she gets better soon. How come she is in hospital?
YAY ON GETTING BD1!! I am sooo happy for you!! Now, go - watch it!
Marielle - Enjoy your party tomorrow! When do you guys start to move into your new house? Have you started packing all your stuff up?
Songbird - Sorry to hear that your kiddies are sick..hope they feel better soon!
I saw the toothfairy pillows on fb - they look very cool!!
Anyone I missed - HELLO THERE!
Hopefully I can swing by tomorrow too. On Saturday, it is my SiL's bfs birthday (the big 40) so we are heading through to the city for a party. Staying overnight in a hotel & doing some Christmas shopping the next day! Should be fun!
Anyway, catch you all later!!
