Yes, we were fortunate enough to get tickets to see the 9:15 sneak preview of New Moon last night! I won't talk much about it since a lot of you haven't seen it yet, but I loved it! I thought it was much better in quality than Twilight. Of course there are some cheesy moments, but there were a lot of funny ones too! I definitely recommend you see it. If you haven't read the books, do that too.
Lauren and I were talking about how sometimes movies take away your imagination of things you read in the books. These movies definitely removed certain things from our imagination and replaced them with the movie versions. Like we both pictured Edward differently and even Bella's dad's house. Has that happened to anyone else??
Okay, I won't talk about anything else. That way I don't spoil it for anyone who might see it later on!
Thanks Lauren! It was fun:)

traditions...
I love traditions. I'm a very traditional person and I'm always looking for a new idea that we can make a tradition in our family. Either between Ricardo and myself, or in the future when we have children. What are some of the traditions for Thanksgiving and Christmas you have either with your family or your spouse??
We haven't started any of our own for Thanksgiving other than with each of our families. We run the Turkey trot with my dad's family and we do the "say one thing you are thankful for(something that might not be known to everyone) " around the table with my mom's and Ricardo's side. We usually get an ornament from my grandparents.
For Christmas we have started going to pick out one ornament together for our tree, something that may represent a significant event or place in our lives. We also buy ornaments from the places we visit too. We are missing a couple from Pittsburgh and Southfork, CO. We never got around to going to look for one! I might look online and see if I see any.
So what are your traditions?? I'd love to get more ideas!!!

new do...
Hubs left for Austin this morning and I'm about to head off to work. I did re-dye my hair last night and it is D.A.R.K.! I have never had it this dark in my life. I do like it a lot better than what it has been for the past two weeks, but I'm not sure really how I feel about it. I think I like it, but I'll have to let it grow on me!

Have a great weekend!Posted by The Neaves' at 8:35 AM 8 comments

better than presents...

Love146 is an organization that is working to end child sex slavery and restore it's victims, giving them hope for a positive future. Whether you choose to donate money, send an e-card, or even buy someone a t-shirt, all profits are helping Love146's mission in ending child sex slavery.
Compassion International for $38 a month you can sponsor a child that provides them with food and clean water, doctors visits and medicine, education and the chance to hear and learn about Jesus! You can even buy Compassion items if you can't sponsor a child at the moment. They even give you opportunities to go visit your child. They are actually on a trip to El Salvador right now. I wish funds would have been in place for us to go this year to visit our Roberto, but hopefully the next go around we will be able to!

Three of the many that could use you help and your prayers. Even if you can't donate or sponsor, your prayers and your help spreading the word about these organizations will be so appreciated!
