BREAKING DAWN!!!

My Husband is awesome.  The best.  Have I mentioned that before?  Well he is, seriously.  So, of course, I was excited about the opening of the latest movie in the Twilight Saga - Breaking Dawn...we always go opening night as couples with our great group of friends.  And, if you'll recall, my fellow Twilight Junkie and dearest friend, Kathryn, and I have always worn matching t-shirts to the movies on opening night.   We started just the two of us with Twilight,  and then convinced Mel and Lynds to join with us for New Moon.  We also made them for Eclipse, but they were a bit of a flop, so that night after Eclipse I decided- no messing around with iron ons anymore!  We are getting serious for Breaking Dawn! Ryan even came up with a saying that very night.  So a year and a half later, here they are...
Couples who watch Twilight together stay together!
Fan or not, you have to admit, it's funny.  Ryan designed the shirts and we had them printed at Extreme Graphics.  It was even more fun to have our husbands match us!  We had 10 couples in our groups, with 6 of us in matching shirts.  We got lots of compliments on our shirts and started thinking we could sell these babies!
Here's all the girls:  Lynds, Jana, Mel, Kathryn, Tonya,
Annette, Ashley, Staci, Kendra and Me.  I love all these girls!  I always say it, but I have the greatest friends!  They make waiting in line for Twilight movies, wearing silly awesome t shirts and having a thing for vampires so much fun!
Me & Kathryn - it's a tradition!
Lynds, Mel and Me.

Now, about the movie... I loved it!  It's funny, I've decided that out of the 4 books, my two least favorite books - New Moon and Breaking Dawn, are my favorite of the movies.  I was a bit worried about how they were going to play this movie out, but I thought over all they did a fantastic job.  LOVED the wedding, it was gorgeous!  And I thought they did an amazing job of making Bella look terribly sick.  And I have ALWAYS been ticked and disappointed at how they have portrayed Edward, but I thought it was improved this time.  Still not as good as book Edward, but a major improvement.  So there's my spill.

Love Ryan. Love Twilight.  Love my friends.  Love group dates.  Loved the movie.
Anyone want to go again?

This made me so happy, Jo!!! Look at this incredible circle of greatness you belong to. Honey, I love those T-Shirts. Your husband is fantastic.

These are great pictures to reflect back on for years to come. I can't say that I know much about Twilight, or that I have read the books. (Please still love me.) But like you say, fan or not, this is a really cool event!!

Love,
R~
