The day dawn is breaking

Last night Ingrid filled her van with 7 teenagers and went in search of "Breaking Dawn".  Actually it was much quicker and less painful than they had anticipated.  The plan changed several times as far as the transportation, but "Wallyworld" was always the place to go because it was less expensive.  She's an ingenious woman, so in keeping with that, she called Smith's before they began their trek.  There were only 6 in line, at that time.  They drove 5 minutes away and Lila was #17 in line. They ended up paying a few dollars more, but all agreed it was worth it for much less hassle!!   Clarence told me when they got home.  The book went on sale @ midnight.  They were home fifteen minutes later.  Record time--Yahoo!!!! They were able to get reading right away...that of course was the goal!  Ingrid went home, but the 7 gals are still in our yurt....reading.  Shannon will probably finish first.  Taylor & Amber are close behind.  Lila is taking her time.  I'm not sure where Michelle is in her reading.  Clarence & her friend from Provo HS Flags, ended up sleeping pretty quickly.  They were tuckered out from marching all day (8 a.m. 'til 4 p.m. ....they had that practice schedule all week.)  Dear Ann showed up around 2.  She had bracelet #507 from Borders.  She made her FABULOUS double chocolate brownies with cream cheese frosting, topped with red raspberries.  She skeedaddled home rather quickly as she was 2 hours behind in reading compared to the yurt gals.  I'm in the kitchen, now that "dawn has broken" I hear the gals chatting.  Just checked on them...they are having a grand time....cheezits & dr. pepper are helping someone stay awake....oh, to be young again....
