Twilight Fever

OK, so I know I am at least a year behind the trend, but I finally read Twilight while on vacation this past week (LOVED IT!!!).  Before reading the book I never understood why all the weekly gossip mags constantly had the Twilight stars on their covers, especially Robert Pattinson.  But now, I fully understand the obsession with his brooding handsomeness (see Exhibit A below)...

Anyway, I am now trying to convince the boys to be vampires this Halloween.  So far they are not too interested, but nothing else has caught their eye, so there is still a chance.  Today I picked up Martha's latest special Halloween issue and found a great how-to for a vampire costume.

I am hoping her version will help convince the boys to become vampires.  I think it will be so much fun to make capes and do their hair à la Edward Cullen...we'll see.

Welcome to the dark side. I was also late to the trend but quickly understood the obsession. My husband was not pleased, however, when our two year old asked, "Dad, are you a van-piper?"

Edward is sooooooooooo dreamy. I can't wait for New Moon to come out. Vampires will definitely be in again this Halloween. Good luck with convincing the twins. I am looking forward to see how the costumes turn out.

I have only read the first two books, so I am not a Twilight expert, but I think you could also be a Vampire (like Alice, Esme or even Victoria). For a New Moon party you may also consider being a She-Wolf! Of course if you looked like Bella you could always be her. Have fun with your party!
