Twilight




The past couple years my sisters and I have been talking about making a trip to Forks Wa.  For some reasons when we get together that seems to be a big part of our conversations. Maybe because it is 2 am and we are high on sugar or maybe it is because my sisters are absolutely 100% gagga over Edward (not Robert ) . Here is a perfect example.  When Emma and I decided to make a trip to Washington for spring break we knew this was the perfect time to make our girls weekend to Forks. We dropped the boys off in Yakima with my Aunt Kathy so they could have some serious boy time and Emma and I went on to Seattle to meet ALicia and Laura. Two days later we were on a ferry headed for Forks Washington. It was an adventure let me tell you and it was awesome. I think we all felt like silly little, crazy girls (except for Emma who thought we should be acting our age.)  It was really fun and I am so glad I could do it with my girl and sisters.

The second we drove into Forks we saw this tour bus and I knew this trip was going to be awesome. We ran and I mean ran out and started screaming. It was so fun.


As you can tell by this photo below the movies are definitly not all filmed here. In fact I dont know if any of it was. This is the high school. I actually was so surprised. I was looking forward to finding the exact spot Edward saves Bella in the school parking lot.
When we saw this store all we could do was scream. Well at least me. It was so funny to see. We knew we had to go in.


Emma knew exactly where she was going let me tell you.
she didnt waste any time.

There were three different groups of girls that we kept running into.
It was nice to know we weren't the only crazy ones. 
something real from the movies, Bella's truck

La Push Beach.
This was my favorite. It was beautiful.
behind us are the real cliffs baba.
(Twilight fans you know what I am talking about)

It was freezing, windy and we were so not perpared but we got out anyways which i am so glad we did becasue it was amazing. The waves were amazing. It was so cool.

I can just picture Bella jumping off this cliff, (I am so kidding)

After our Forks adventure we went to  Port Angeles and stayed in a hotel. Later that night us girls watched  Twilight on the lap top just to get in the mood. Of course we're partly joking just because we think it's hilarious to be fans of it, but it was fun at the same time :)



The next day we drove to the Olympian National Forest and hiked to a beautiful waterfall. It was so pretty and worth the drive.
