Chapter 22 & 23: Meeting the Cullens

Outside of the Cullen House

Side pic of the Cullen House

Carlisle and Esme Cullen

Here is a picture of Edward's Jaguar XK, yeah, it is pretty sweet!

Emmett's Escalade, He's a big guy so he needed a bigger vehicle....LOL

Okay, Jasper is from Texas so I had to give him a truck....hehehehehe.... Of course the original one I picked out was a serious Cowboy truck but I decided he had been in Seattle long enough to get a City truck.

Chapter 21: Changes

Okay, here is Riley *sigh* Too bad he was such a numb nuts. But alas, if he had held it together would Bella have met Edward???? 

Okay, Here is Alec (yes, I used Cameron Bright....LOL). Somehow in comparison of the two she should have just stuck with Alec. He seemed to handle the pressure a heck of a lot better than Riley!

Bella's smoking BMW 325i that alllowed some HAWT action between her and Edward at UW.

Chapter 20: Last night

The inside of The Inn at Langley where Bella and Edward shared a romantic meal after she professed her love for him.

Hmmm, here is a good picture of "the couch" and well, it looks very comfy and well, ya know, workable. *ahem*

This is where they enjoyed the stars and moon and well, eachother.

Here is a picture of all the charms including the two added ones they picked out to represent this weekend.

Chapter 19: A Beautiful Day

Okay, playfulness in the morning. So this is the "morning after" the big I Love You. Bella is determined to make sure everything is okay this weekend.

Here is a picture of the couch outside of the cottage where they shared coffee and muffins before heading out on their journey.

Okay, Call me crazy but as excited as Edward was to get this book I thought it fitting that I post it for you....LMAO!!!!

Here are the Totem Poles near the Langley Waterfront. The *ahem* stairs are between them and those stairs lead to the shore that Bella and Edward walked along.

Here is another picture of the Totem Poles. There is a walking path that runs parallel to the shore with various spots that have steps allowing you to go down to the beach.

Here is a picture of the outside of The Inn at Langley where they have dinner on Saturday night.

Chapter 18: Birthday Wishes

The love in this picture is evident. This is what I picture when they first make love at the cottage. She is vulnerable and he honors her and that vulnerability *sigh*

What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us by Ralph Waldo Emerson

Ahhhhh, well these are the charms on the bracelet. I think Edward told you better than I could why he picked them. Once again, have I said how much I LOVE Edward *sigh*

Here is a picture of the lingerie that Bella is wearing. I liked this because it isn't too revealing but it is sexy and delicate. Sometimes showing less is definately more.

Hmmm, Jacuzzi sex with Edward is way beyond erotic. Alas, you will need to imagine the candles and soft music and well, a wet and beautiful Edward.

To Earthward

Here is the Robert Frost poem that Edward recited to her. Okay, Frost is my favorite poet so needless to say I was stoked he was used in the Saga. If you have only read The Road Not Taken or Fire and Ice (which are wonderful) please, pretty please seek him out. I know he can be depressing at times but that is reflective of the time he lived in and the traumas he endured. Now he will make you work for it but he is well worth the work.

Chapter 17: The Cottage

The ferry that will take Bella and Edward to Whidbey Island for their weekend rendezvous. Technically this is the Seattle Pier but I couldn't get a good enough picture of the Mulkiteo Pier.

Here is a picture of the outside of the cottage. This particular cottage is called Cabernet Cottage.

The inside of the cottage. I liked the whole romantic feel of this unit with all the roses. It just seemed like a wonderful place to spend with the one you love.

A bigger pic of the king size bed. Yeah, this looks EXTREMELY comfortable and cozy.

You can see out the large patio window in this pic. I will post the outside pics in the next couple of chapters. Sorry, got to wait...LOL

First glimpse of the large jacuzzi tub, it looks big enough for Edward's long legs.
