Next Up - Clockwork Angel

Comes out tomorrow, Aug. 31st! Again, can't wait :-)

The Hanging Tree

Only listen if you've finished Mockingjay. It's eerie.....

I GOT MY BOOK! ~ And I've already finished it!

LOVED IT, that's all I'm going to say. Haunts me, though. Still can't stop thinking about it. I cried several times. Even cried this morning on the way to work....

I couldn't wait. Sad, I know. Amber is going to buy my pre-ordered book since she hasn't even started Catching Fire yet. I'm super excited!!!

Tomorrow's the DAY!!!!!

I'm so thrilled I can't stand it!!! I read a review today, which didn't give anything away, but did say it's the bloodiest and goriest of all three books. Said the conclusion is shocking and highly original.....

I pre-ordered, so I probably won't get it for a couple of days, but if I've waited this long and I can't make. BUT....when I pre-ordered Breaking Dawn, I actually received it on the day it came out ~ SO I'M HOPING, HOPING, HOPING the same will happen tomorrow. I'll go home from work and there will be my precious MOCKINGJAY!!!! But I won't get my hopes up too high. At least I know it will be there this week... :-)

And I'm going to try my best not to devour it. Savor the moment, Cindy, you can do it.

Go Peeta!!!

Happy reading!!!

Facial Exercises

I was looking up different kinds of homemade facials and I came across this funny video. I'm okay with the actual exercises, even though they may look a little odd, but what's up with her breathing routine prior to the exercise? And I wonder, do you actually have to make that noise for it to work??? Enjoy! Cracked me up!

Julie & Kids' Visit

Julie and her younger kiddos came to visit me a while back. The first night Julie and I went to Eclipse. It was great! And the kids just loved the babysitter, a boy from my ward about to go on his mission.

We went to the Ft. Worth Zoo one day and hit the Grapevine Mills Mall the next day, Build-a-Bear, glow-in-the-dark putt-putt and of course, dessert at the Rainforest Cafe. Yes, we had dessert before dinner!!

I really enjoyed their visit. I don't have visitors too often, so it's always a treat when I do.

Jeremy, Chrystina and their kiddos visited a few days before Julie. Chrystina and I saw Wicked. Talk about awesome! I can't wait to go see another musicial!!!

Here are a few photos Blake took of our Zoo adventures. The kids are so cute!! And I love the kangaroo picture. Is he dead?

So True...for me at least
