Happy New Year from all of us at the Cullen House!

December 31, 2009

This will be the last blog entry of 2009! The Cullen family have gone off to see in how many different time zones they can celebrate the New Year. From all of us at the "Cullen House," we wish you the very best in 2010 and will look forward to meeting many of you in the coming year. Keep safe!

Merry Christmas from the Cullen Coven

December 21, 2009

It is the Cullen family's favorite day of the year, the first day of winter and the shortest day of the year!

The Cullen's took off last night on an extended holiday. They are visiting other covens around the world, this Christmas. They would like to wish all of their fans a very Merry Christmas and a Happy 2010.

In the meantime, Tunny, the Cullen House cat is keeping a watchful eye out the front window. He thinks he heard the faint sound of jingle bells and knows that Santa is on his way!

Merry Christmas!

The Cullens Are Christmas Shopping

December 17, 2009

The Cullen Family have all gone shopping for the perfect Christmas gifts. Tunny, the Cullen House cat, thinks with him under the tree, they already have the perfect Christmas gift! Merry Christmas to All!

A Twilight Christmas Tree

December 10, 2009

On Sunday, December 6, our local Soroptomist's held their annual Christmas Tree auction. The Cullen House, got the winning bid for the "Twilight" tree. It is decorated in red, white and black and features the Cullen Crest as well as ornaments that look like the book covers. It is the perfect tree to help our guests celebrate a Cullen Family Christmas! Thanks to our neighbors Ted and Prue for getting the winning bid on this tree. Hope you can come see it in person. We believe in the 12 days of Christmas, so it won't come down until after January 6.

Cullen Family Hunts for Mushrooms

December 4, 2009

Because Bella LOVES the mushroom ravioli at Bella Italia, Edward obtained the recipe and is leading the family on a mushroom hunting expedition. He wants to surprise Bella by cooking her favorite dish. Shhhhh...don't tell anyone!

Christmas Time at the Cullen House

December 3, 2009

December is here and we have been decorating for the Christmas season. The stockings are up and most of the inside decorations have appeared.

There are many things happening in Forks and LaPush this weekend. Tomorrow, December 4 is the annual "Cherish the Children" fundraiser at the Tribal Center in LaPush. This fundraiser is a joint effort between LaPush and Forks to raise money so that children in both communities can have a happier Christmas. It will begin at 5PM with a seafood dinner and there will be both a live and silent auction and perhaps a visit from Santa Clause.

On Saturday, December 5, the Forks Soroptomist's will host their annual "Festival of Trees" at the Bank of America building. The trees may be viewed during the day on Saturday and then will be auctioned off on Sunday afternoon. We are hoping to get a tree for the Cullen House at this auction.

Saturday night at 6:30PM will be the annual "Twinkle Light Parade" sponsored by JT's Sweetstuffs. It is a short parade filled with lots of good humor and holiday spirit. It is also the kick-off for the West End Business Association's "Moonlight Madness." All the downtown stores and restaurants will have specials and sales from 7PM - 11PM.

Come on over and join the fun! We still have rooms available over the weekend.
