I'm awfully excited to be a part of this unique blog tour in celebration of the release of Forever by the insanely talented Maggie Stiefvater . Scholastic recently launched an online community called This Is Teen to connect readers with their favorite YA authors and books. Visit their page on Facebook for all the latest news on Maggie Stiefvater and Forever . Each stop on the tour is hosting a particular character from the Wolves of Mercy Falls trilogy, and I have the good luck to be the stop for Sam--my favorite emo-wolfboy! Sam is so very endearing, in a decidedly non-angsty or overt way. His breathtaking blend of maturity and vulnerability tugs at my heartstrings and the strength of his relationship with Grace is unswerving. He is warm and thoughtful and artistic, and I liked him right from the start of the series . Because I can't resist, here are two of my favorite Sam quotes, the first from Grace's point of view in Shiver and the second from Sam&
These are gorgeous photos (great costumes, too). Did you take them?
ReplyDeleteCute pics. Are these your kids? They are great photos! :)
ReplyDeleteSo totally adorable. And I love love love the last pic!
ReplyDeleteSo cute!!! Really great pics :)
ReplyDeleteAwww. :)
ReplyDeleteKMont, I did not. That honor belongs to DH. He gives good photo. More of his stuff over here.
ReplyDeleteBecky, they are, in fact, mine! Will (5) and Piper (15 months).
Li, grin, thanks! I'm partial to that one as well.
Mandi, I am lucky to have a photographer for a husband. The memories, they are captured.
Sara, hehe.
Adorable!! I seriously need to learn the secret of getting my kids to not run away from the camera...
ReplyDeleteYes, your hubby is a photography genius, but he also has very photogenic subjects. These pictures make me miss you all. Is that your front porch....I love the brick and I need to visit your home in person very soon. Jared has a job interview in Salt Lake tomorrow. Who knows what will come of it. But a girl can dream of moving closer to family.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Will looks like serious Jedi business is afoot in the left one near the bottom.
ReplyDeleteOh my lord, Angie: these are gorgeous and I went to his blog and I was drooling al over his photos. VERY, very talented.
ReplyDeleteHi Angie :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing those incredible photographs. Your husband is very talented!
Your children look adorable too - great costumes too.
Love that last picture too. It so atmospheric.
Thanks again for sharing,
All the best,

Jedi + Kiss = ADORABLE!
ReplyDeleteso cute!
ReplyDeleteCute, cute, cute!
ReplyDeleteJedi kisses are the best! ;)
Did your husband take these? Amazing pics. I love the costumes!!
ReplyDeleteYour kids are cuties. I love the kiss costume. And my husband would heartily approve of the Jedi and that cool picture of him with the glowing lightsaber. :)
ReplyDeleteAwesome pics, Angie! I can't believe how big Piper is already! It seems like just yesterday I was awwwing over her birth photo!
ReplyDeleteBritt, it really is a trick sometimes. My kids just never have a choice!
ReplyDeleteLiz, yup, that's our porch. And it's beginning to be a crime that you've never been here. Interview in Salt Lake, you say? Now wouldn't that be nice...
Allie, oh, believe me, he takes his Jedi business veeery seriously.
Ana, aw, thank you! :)
RK, my pleasure. I'm always fascinated to see what the boy will pick out each year. I imagine next year the girl will want a say as well. :)
Jessie, hehe.
Michelle, he did. He's there for all my photographic needs.
Janicu, since he already had the light-up lightsaber, he was all set to go once we got the robe. I love the atmospheric ones as well.
Christine, I know. I'm flummoxed by this as well. *shakes head*
Those photos are great! The kids look very cute and I hope they had a lot of fun. Tell your son his light saber skills look exceptional.
