Pickles and Twilight

My church just held it's first annual Pickle Night on Friday. What is Pickle Night you may ask? Well, it's a night all about pickles. And it was really fun! The night began with a rousing game of Pass the Pickle (think Hot Potato with a pickle). Then we had a pickle spitting contest followed by a pickle eating contest. It was so funny with the kids cheering each other on! Then we made pickle magnets and played Pickle, Pickle, Where's the Pickle? (think Doggie, Doggie, Where's your bone?). I think the kids were surprised at how much fun you could have with pickles. We had pizza and pickle juice(lemon-lime kool-aid that was green). And we watched the Veggie Tales movie Dave and the Giant Pickle. And then ended the night with a fun game of Pickle, Pickle, Cucumber (Duck, Duck, Goose). We all had a blast! It was so much fun that we will have to do it again. The kids were asking when the next Pickle Night was going to be. It will definitely be an annual event now! If you're ever craving pickles you'll have to stop by.

Sooo...I just got home from watching Twilight. It was really good. I have to admit that I may be slightly biased since I totally loved the book series. When I first saw the pics promoting the film I wasn't very impressed. I didn't think Robert Pattinson looked like Edward. But he was perfect. Seeing the movie made me want to read the books again so that I could imagine him in Edward's place while reading the book. Ahhhh. I hope you all go see this movie, and I hope you really like it!
