Eclipse Book Signing

After reading 3 of the 4 books in the Twilight series. I was talking to my sister-in-law Erin and she told me that she had just gone to a book signing for these books. She told me of her experience of being blown away by the number of teenage girls, young mom's, and older women who were gathered around because of these books! She highly encouraged me to go and experience this if I had the opportunity.


Well that opportunity came and she was right, it was quite the experience. Debi Perkes and Gwyn Nichol and I went. We met some of the Young Women from our ward down in Fairfax, VA (about an hour away) who had picked up our tickets that morning. I couldn't believe the number of girls that were screaming and crowded in this book store. The author, Stephanie Meyers, to me looks like she is a Mormon mom. She wasn't this spectacular, glittery person but a real, down to earth type of person.

The signature was less than impressive, but it is the experience that counts! We had a great time! It was fun to go back to those times in life and remember what is was like to be 15 again!! Did I mention that I was on bed rest?!! I did bring my camping chair so that I could sit instead of stand. What a site!
