Adventures in Twilightland
First, we want you all to know that we realize there is more to life than Twilight. We don't spend every waking moment talking and thinking about Twilight, but it is near and dear to our hearts.
Within this blog you will find our Twilight musings, declarations of adoration, and all sorts of other silly Twilight-related nonsense. And to all you other Twilight fans, we'd love to hear from you.

Sharing Some Happy News

Big congratulations are in order for two members of the Adventures in Twilightland gang - Big T and Little T officially became aunties last week! Their little niece will be known as Denali on the blog since her real name is the same as one of the book characters. And no, her name was not chosen because it was mentioned in the series.

Never ones to let the chance to introduce people to the world of Twilight pass them by, Big T and Little T played the movie for Denali this weekend. Only a week old, Denali seemed to enjoy the flick, though her aunties are disappointed that she is obviously Team Jacob. Every time Jacob appeared on the screen, Denali made a little grunt or noise. No such luck when Edward popped into view.

Oh, well - at least she seems to be a fan!

First Summer Stop: Drive-in Movie

Big T and Little T are avid drive-in movie fans. They try to go as often as possible in the summer, regardless of the movies that are playing. Edward has heard about this wondrous place from the two of them many times and finally decided that he must partake in the big screen experience.

Totally new to the concept, they had to have a pre-movie meeting. As hard as he tries, Edward can't always master the human act. He would have been perfectly content sitting on the cold ground or standing next to the car through both movies. Might as well put a blinking light over his head that reads, "Vampire".

After he was instructed to gather snuggly blankets, camping chairs, and a couple of pillows to add to the human charade, Edward graciously volunteered to be the snack packer. He remembered that humans like to munch on candy, popcorn, and other goodies during movies, so he packed the car full of junk food and the group was off to the show!

Upon their arrival at the drive-in, Edward got to meet a new friend - Jenny. Jenny, a dear pal of both Big T and Little T, quickly became enamored with the vampire Casanova after he offered her food and blankets and the two of them spent the evening chatting away.

Edward thoroughly enjoyed his night at the drive-in as he was surrounded by beautiful ladies on a star lite night, all while watching "Land of the Lost" and "Night at the Museum" on a giant screen.

Edward Offers his Apologies

The past few months have been busy for us at Adventures in Twilightland. First, we had to figure out who hacked into our system. That horrible mess is finally taken care of, though we can't guarantee that they will never find another way into this blog. I shudder at that possibility. Dumb dog lovers.

Second, Edward has realized that although he will never age, he really needs to start living it up. Not liking to travel alone, Edward dragged us hither and yon this past summer. Besides being constantly on the go, it was a very enjoyable time. I mean, who wouldn't want to spend a majority of their free time with a stunningly gorgeous, super polite, and uber intelligent vampire that is rolling in dough? Exactly.

Well, he has instructed me to post photos and descriptions from our adventures this summer throughout the next few weeks in order to make up for the disasterous werewolf debacle. Enjoy!
