Girls, Breaking Dawn, and No Husbands

Last Friday was Fathers and Sons, so Shawn and Collin were gone. (He didn't take Anthony because he was helping with a lot of stuff, and well...for those of you familiar with Anthony, he's a full time job). Anyway, that was also the night that "Breaking Dawn" came out. I decided it would be fun (since our husbands were gone anyway) to have a girls night. We talked for a while before and let the kids play in the yard, then at about 11:20, we ran over to Smiths and stood in line until midnight when we bought the book. After that, it was read, read, read.

It was going to be a sleepover but then we found out that the men had been evacuated due to a fire (that never really was a threat). Shawn called at like 1:15am and said they were on their way home. Anyway, most people left around two, but a few people stayed longer. Me and my friend Kim finally gave up around 4:30. I haven't done that in a long time, but it was really fun.

The book was really good. Stephenie did a lot of great things, even some I wasn't expecting at all. I only had one complaint, which I won't share here because I don't want to spoil it for anyone (it's really pretty minor, just something I wish she would have added).

So, here's to reading, especially late at night.
