Twilight Moments: Twilight at Thanksgiving

This is the first chance I have given myself to post this. It's just my fun Twilight moment thoughts. I know I have so, so, many. Hope I don't bore any readers, but I never tire of having or reliving my moments.
I spent Thanksgiving in St. George with my family. Two of my sister-in-laws are addicts so I had great company. I had several "moments":
My brother brought a jeep/4 wheeler cross breed called a Rhino, it seats 4-5 people, 2 in front and 2-3 in a the back. It is very fun, if you like off-roading vehicles. The seat-belts are harnesses. Well harnessing myself in and then riding rough roads, could only remind me of one thing- Emmet's jeep and Bella riding in it to the baseball game (which then leads to one of the hottest kissing scenes of all times, sigh). Even Erin (1 of the fellow addict sister-in-laws)admitted she also had Twilight thoughts when she rode in the rhino, and tried to read the jeep part to her husband just to get him to enjoy a little TW himself. It didn't work. Fun for us though. Fun, fun, fun!

The 2nd day I went off-roading, Dave looked at me and the sun was shining very brightly in his eyes, and his eyes looked a shade of Edwards. I am not kidding. His brown have green and a lot of yellow in them. They were very yellow/brown today, very warm. I told him so, and he said he would take it as a compliment that I said his eyes were like Edwards!

My fav. TW moment: so we were all getting the dinner ready and my brother was peeling potatoes. I needed the peeler for my cucumbers, and he was taking forever, and knew I was waiting. So he was putting on an exaggerated peeling show, and commented "is this fast enough for you?" To which I responded. "No" and then to my Twilight-addicted-sister-in-law-2 I said, "I know what would be fast enough though". We exchanged very twinkly and knowing smiles at the thought of long, beautiful, white hands, peeling potatoes lightening fast, even though the Being peeling them wouldn't be eating them. (Of course this launched into a discussion about Vampires not eating, and had us explaining to our husbands how our Edward learned to cook for Bella anyway because he loved her so much, even though he couldn't enjoy the taste himself). Very satisfying weekend I must say!
(p.s. the picture is of Emmet's jeep from SM.com)

These are great! Thanks for posting them for all to enjoy. Right when you started talking about a jeep, I instantly thought of Emmett's red jeep and his harness seatbelts, and of Edward buckling Bella in slowly and occasionally brushing her collarbone with a hint of smile on his face. That is probably my favorite kissing scene in Twilight. I love that you told Dave about his eye shade, and that he took it as a compliment. Yesterday Justin's smiled at something I said, and it was a crooked smile, and guess who it reminded me of. The last one is the best! Edward would be so handy to have around for preparing food wouldn't he? Especially something like peeling potatoes! And how positively awesome that your sister-in-law could "get" that too! Edward is so perfect.

By the way, that picture is different than the first one that was posted on SM's website. The old one seemed much more basic, this one seems more like what Emmett's jeep might really be like. Don't you guys think?

I am so glad you posted this. And the picture - so right on to the picture in my head!! Who was the potato peeler, Shane? I know it wasn't Joseph, except that is exactly what he would do!! You always have such fun TW moments to share.
