honesty

i really do think its a good policy.
and, so...in keeping honest...let the truth be told

i can now officially say,
without embarrassment or fear of rejection/judgment
that i
natalie
mother to one
and wife to
...
one

have read and completed all four twilight series books and watched the movie twice i mean three i mean is it four? times

aaaaaannnnnnnnddd i love them
love them like a new pair of shoes
or a good piece of art
or a really great timeless song
{ok maybe thats taking it too far, but you get my drift}

is that sad?

if your answer is "no!"
{bc seriously i know most of you out there are closet twilight lovers or "twihards" as my sister aptly explained. and, if not, then march your little mouse on over to amazon.com and buy yourself all four bc you will read through them so fast that you will not be able to afford the lapse caused with shipping them one by one}

THEN take a crack at the following:


my sisters and i have a date on monday - mid day - with all the other creeps who go to movies on mondays at 1:30 in the afternoon


i can hardly wait
i feel fifteen again.

maybe i am.

and thanks to the support of my wickedly snippy youngest sibling,
i now present you with the following masterpiece


yes, he was there.
in napa.
with us.
coif and all.

and thanks to this ridiculous display of obviously-not-too-repressed teenage immaturity,

rachel and i both now know
how to use Photoshop

it only took edward cullen, vampire extraordinaire, to give us reason enough to spend the time to learn it.

thank you edward
