Vampires

This past month my ward's book club read Stephenie Meyer's Twilight.


And we are crazy about the three (soon to be four) book series! Silly as it might sound, these books about Bella, a clumsy ordinary girl, and Edward, a vampire who doesn't want to be a killer, are extremely compelling. I think it must be the perfect combination of danger and romance.

The night of the book club Karen, Shannon, and Kim all showed up in Edward Cullen t-shirts. We all had a good laugh. They told us that they were going to wear the t-shirts to the Trunk or Treat that Saturday and invited the rest of us to do the same.

Here are 4 of the Twilight fans:


Kim's shirt says: "Edward Cullen" and on the back "Got Blood?"
My shirt says: "Vampire Girl la tua cantante"
Leiann's shirt says: "Bite Me" and on the back "I love Edward Cullen"
Karen's shirt says: "Edward Cullen not human, definitely man"

I guess you'll just have to read the books to find out what all the fuss is about.

Hey JoLee!!
I just came across your blog from an old email you sent me and wanted to stop by and see how you guys are doing! You look great as always! I'll have to keep checking back here for updates!!

OH! And I have to agree that this is a fun series to read! I just finished the 3rd book. I never thought I was much of a vampire person, but these books are good!

Becca! Oh! I'm so excited to see your comments. I'll have to send you an email so that we can catch up. Are you going to be in Colorado Springs for Christmas? And I'm glad you loved the Twilight Series ;)

Hi, JoLee! I'm repenting of being such a blog slacker, so I'm trying to post and comment more often. I'm glad to see that you and Nate are doing well.

Jackson's almost 4 months old now, and we love every minute with him. We can't believe how fast he's growing! Corey and I like New Jersey a lot, but we are looking forward to being in Utah and Idaho for the holidays.

My ward's book club just read Twilight as well, and I'm anxious to read the others in the series.

Talk to you soon hopefully! Here's my blog address in case you don't have it anymore: http://beahm-family.blogspot.com

Thanks for sending me your blog link! I am having fun reading all your posts. And also, I am currently reading the third book, Eclipse. I read the first two over the last week. Love them!

I just re-found your blog and I'm so happy! I started the Twilight series on Monday and just finished it (Friday). Can't wait for book 4. Think I'm going to have to get a t-shirt.
