a sneaky husbanb......

So the book Breaking Dawn was released last night at midnight. There was a bunch of stuff on the news about it. Even when we were at Desseret Book this week they were going to open for 1 hour between 12:00 and 1:00AM to sell the book. Mike and I went out last night and saw "Swing Vote" it had a really good message, but the language was pretty heavy. Anyway we got home around 10:00 and I started goofing around with Mike saying, "Oh, just 2 hours left!" I am assuming that they have made enough copies of the book that it won't be hard to get it anywhere this week. So I was not worried about being able to get a copy. I was just having fun like a frenzied fan.
I got so tired after we got home that I literally passed out around 10:45. I woke up sometime in the middle of the night and Mike wasn't in bed. I called out to him and here he came with a little surprise. He decided to go to Wal Mart at 11:15 last night. He said he was the 300 person in line. He said there were about 1,000 people by midnight. He said when midnight hit all the girls were screaming, that I should have heard it, it was crazy. He said Wal Mart had 2 people standing there and just handing the books to everybody so it went really fast, plus he said it only cost $13 something . So my sneaky husband was up reading the book. He's so funny! I would be reading it this morning, but I'm off to spend time with my Princess. The son-in-laws sister is getting married this morning right here in our town, so I'm going to help out with my little sweety pie. But when things settle down I'm picking up that book!

I hope that the princess starts feeling better soon!
LOVE that Bro. D did that for you (and him!!) too cute!
I totally went with my friends to get the book at midnight last night! It was such a great time-came straight home and read until 4:30 am when I finally HAD to sleep! I finished the book this afternoon!
It was my FAVORITE in the series!

how sneaky! What a funny guy he is. You'll have to let us know how the book turns out. And I sure hope the baby feels better. Poor little doll.

WOW..The book has made that lady way rich! ha... she probably had no clue. Kristy went with Brandy, my sister, and Jessica, to Books A MIllion and they had VIP passes..to stay till midnight and party a bit there while waitin...and get a book. Jessica had already bought a ticket for a book , then she WON a book,so she gave it to Kristy and told her now she has to READ them. ha... Because she isnt much of a reader. So, we have this huge book no one has even opened yet, laying on our table and some people would DIE to get their hands on it if they only knew! ha... Hope little Izzy is better, let me know what the Doctor says. Your garden is so cute... :) Love ya, Gina
