I am supposed to be writing a paper right now but instead decided to do a little updating. Where did November go?!! Where did the last few months go? (Don't get me wrong.. I am SO thankful that time went by fast)
I went to see Breaking Dawn with my sisters Heather and Jenni and a bunch of Heather's friends and neighbors.
Heather's neighbor Desiree invited us over to have a party before the show. Many ladies showed up in wedding dresses. Some women even came in their wedding dresses. Westy and I have been married for almost 3.5 years and I can't squeeze into mine (dang thyroid).
(I am not going to lie, I was VERY disappointed in Breaking Dawn. I was extremely uncomfortable and didn't appreciate the brief nudity -if you don't believe me, I swear on my life I saw a little something- Even though the honeymoon scene was maybe 20 minutes I had the worst taste in my mouth that I almost didn't like the rest of the movie. I do not believe I will ever see that movie again. We are all allowed to have our own opinions :) )
November is a big month for birthdays in my family. Ethan turned 7, Sydney turned 5 and Westy turned 28. Here are some pictures of the combined birthday gathering:
Aunt Cindy and my mom
Grandma Harrison and Jenni
I have a fun time asking my grandma questions about her family members and where they came from. I have had multiple people ask me if my family is from Eastern Europe because apparently I look that way. My grandma's ancestors came from Amsterdam but that is the closest to Eastern Europe my family is.
Grandpa Harrison. I am grateful for his health. He has colon cancer and has gone through a lot this last year. He lost one of his sisters to a very rare type of cancer a few weeks ago. I pray for him often and hope that even though he may seem well, that may not be the case.
Aidan loves Westy. ( i love Ethan's face in this pic)
My dad and mom.
We were teasing Sydney about calling her boyfriends on the phone (Jenni gave her a cute phone) and she just starting crying!
Star Wars is a big deal these days. Ethan had a Star Wars birthday party.

I'm supposed to be writing a paper right now, too! And I just updated my blog, too! LOL
You are too cute, Erica. Thanks for the heads-up about the new Twilight movie. It wasn't on my list of things to before (though I wouldn't have been surprised if I ended up seeing it sometime in my life), but now I think I'll put it on my list of things to avoid lol. I watched the trailer, though, a couple of weeks ago, and I pretty much felt the same way you did while watching the movie. AWKWARD. Bad taste in my mouth for sure. But there is this funny Ellen video... Maybe it'll make it better for you. :)

Although I did like the part where they have a whole honeymoon cabana!!! (Did I remember that right?)
Love you.
