Penny Visits Michigan

So, I finally decided to go home after 7 years of being away. I'm not sure why I was away for so long but I was. Over Thanksgiving Penny and I headed to Michigan. It was the first time being away from hubby for a holiday but I needed to return home and he had to work. I was hoping he would get the week off but this year was rare one in that he had to get a show out so no extra days for him. It was nice to return home and visit with my parents, my brother and his family, my grandma and other family members and some friends I hadn't seen in a long while. We landed to snow and I made the mistake of putting our winter coats in our luggage which the airline lost!!! So our first taste of Michigan was a bitter cold one. But alas, we still had some great adventures, like see Aunt Sue's new house, get my first Jersey Giant in 10 years, visit my grandma, go to Bronner's, have a playdate with old friends Mindy and Angela in an awesome treehouse, catch up with two girls and their children I hadn't seen since high school, eat some good ole Deluca's with my Aunt Alicia, have a Macy's shopping and lunch lunch date with my mom and watch Penny delight and hate with her two cousins, Lila and Will. Thanksgiving was at my brother's new house, which is only a mile from my parents house. In addition to turkey, he made a lasagna and a TON of fettuchini. A ton! Penny and I had a great time but after a week we missed daddy and were happy to fly home to 82 degree weather and be with him and Moses.

What is Twilight?

I have loved movies and worked in movies and I consider myself knowledgable about movies but I have no idea what this whole Twilight craze is all about. Do you? I know it's something to do about vampires and that it's the new Harry Potter but what the heck is it? All of the sudden everywhere I go I hear about Twilight. They are interviewing talent on the radio and I have no idea who these stars are. It's like Hollywood grew a new list of talent over night and didn't tell me. Anyhoo, that movie opened last night to gang buster numbers but yet, I have no idea. I have no idea about the Jonas Brothers either. Am I getting old? I guess so.
