Book signings

My friends and I went to a Nicholas Sparks book signing for his new book The Lucky One. He talked about his life and his books. His book Nights in Rodanthe is a new movie. We were able to get a picture with him, which was really fun. While he was signing our books we asked him if he would meet us for Cheesecake afterwards. He kindly declined. I can't figure out why! The Cheesecake was yummy without him though. I haven't finished the book yet. It was a fun night.

For FHE this week we took the kids to see a signing by Laura Numeroff. She wrote the book If You Give a Mouse a Cookie. Her new book is If You Give a Cat a Cupcake. She talked to the kids about never giving up. We did a dance to a silly song and then we all ate a delicious cupcake(seriously the yummiest cupcake I've ever had!). It was a fun time.
