Good Times!

Weekend Off!

This weekend I was able to take some time off before the crazy rush. However, I didn't take it off for no reason. I'm sure most girls know why. It was for New Moon! Thursday night we were going to go to the movie at midnight, which meant there was no way I was going to work at 7 the next day! So, I took Friday off! Thursday and Sunday are my normal days off. Then since the Front End got Deparment of the Month I won a free day. So, I took Saturday! I was super excited to have 4 days off in a row!

We were all very excited for New Moon! We all read the books, and really liked the first movie. So one of our friend's company rented out a bunch of theaters so we said sure! Send out Cards is the company and because they rented out so many theatres The District gave her an advanced screening at 8:00. So we got to go at 8, instead of midnight! Jackpot! BTW I am on Team Jacob!

To start it off, my friend Kaycee and I wanted to do some shopping. We had Aeropostale coupons so we started there. I bought some cute clothes for Christmas gifts, and of course one for me! She bought some cute shirts too. It was fun shopping with her, and very funny! Apparently the employees that work there are drilled about customer service. We probably got asked if we needed help 25 times, seriously like every 3 minutes! "Can I find a size for you, Are you doing ok, are you still doing ok, are you finding everything ok, can I help you find anything, are you still finding everything ok." I mean I am all about service, but WOW! We couldn't help but laugh about it! However I ended up getting a killer deal! $69 worth of stuff for $27! SWEET!

After Aero we headed over to Ross. Didn't find very many cute clothes, but we found a ton of hideous clothes that we made fun of! Kaycee even found a bodysuit! Yikes! I ended up buying towels, and she got a cute picture frame. We met up with our friend Meghann at Target where we looked around for a bit, but then decided we were hungry and it was time for dinner. We headed over to Training Table, which was quite tasty! (always is) And we really enjoyed ourselves, and ate way too much! (always do)

Then it was time.......for the show! The three of us met up with Angela, Ashlee, and Leann, to watch New Moon. They set us up with little gift bags when we walked in. Also they were doing prizes! We didn't win any, but it was fun. There was only one preview and it was for a new movie that Robert Pattinson (Edward) is in. Looks good. It was pretty funny throughout the movie though, almost every scene all the girls would hoot and hollar. When they saw Edward, screams! When they saw Jacob, screams! There was even a scream for Bella's dad! It was hilarious, but made it that much more fun! So, we had a great time and YES! The movie was also great!

Kaycee and I were super excited after the show! Why? Because we had tickets for the show again the next day! This time it was during the day, at the Gateway. So, we met up with My mom Karen, Sister Jamie, cousins Stephanie and Shara, and friends Enoch and Christina at Applebees. The food was excellent! And it was fun getting together before the show to talk, especially talking about the movie! After lunch Marie met us at the theater to watch the movie again! And yes! The movie was just as great the second time!

So, I had a great couple of days. Really enjoyed the movie! And LOVED hanging out with all the awesome people! Thanks guys! Now I get to look forward to Saturday night! Game Night at the Thorpe home! We LOVE game nights! I will blog about that soon! But so far great weekend off!
