Eclipse

MAJOR PICTURE OVERLOAD . . . and why not? it was so much fun!


This is our 3rd shin dig. We have enjoyed the books, now we're enjoying excuses to have fun!



It started with the making of our shirts, of course! I missed the original t-shirt party, but our lovely host, Heather, was kind enough to let some of us who couldn't make it sneek over to her house on another night.


Here she is below helping me get started on one of my shirts while I did the other. I got a ticket for my mom so she had to have a shirt too, of course. Thanks Heather! It totally helped me out on time! ( I made 3 last year and they took me forever!)


Here is my finished shirt (the back anyway). I am a peaceful person, can't we all just get along? ;)



Now lets get to the big night!


Me and Mom.



Going healthy, we had a salad bar with cheese and crackers. Well this was really just to even us out on the yummy desserts too!
Our wonderful party hostess, Angie. Thanks for letting us use your house!



added bonus! since it is summer we got to party outside! Lovin' the props! Hello Tent scene!



The woman who makes this night possible! Jena you're the best! we all love you!



The Entertainment gets better everytime! Here we have

Stacey and Heather

in a first ever debate (between us anyway) about who is better

Edward or Jacob



This was sooo funny! and they both made excellent points of course! Afterward the audience got to vote for the best debator. But who could choose really? they both got prizes, and we all got a lot of good laughs. Don't worry all in good fun, these two actually do love each other.



A few in a group pic by the tent. ( I think there were actually like 30 people there too bad we didnt get a full group shot but that is a lot of people to get in the same place at once, oh well.)

Stacey, Jena, Sheena, Emily, Amy, Me, Susie, Heather, Nickie, Allison


Some of my best buddies!


Susie, Sheena, Amy, Me, Nickie



Now for a little more prep time. Even Mom's of Mom's can get in on the fun too!

Some brought tatoos and My mom is a Wolf fan. Other's brought sparkly spray for Vamp fans.


And everytime we've had a Twilight night it has been someone's birthday. Just another great reason to celebrate! Happy Birthday Emily!
Not a day over 21! ;)


Now for the ever popular T-shirt contest (hence the reason we are making the shirts!)

Here are the nominees!




Here are the 3 winners!



Heck ya! my mom won a prize thanks to my awesome shirt making skills, ha ha!


Another quick group shot before we go.


Nickie, Joanne, Jena, Amy, Emily, Allison, Heather
Angie, Me, Sheena, Susie


And of course another of us all looking like total nerds cause its too fun to pass up.



We made it to the theater!

(some of us are not as young as we used to be, but I think we can stay awake)
(and no that was not just directed at you mom)



Glad my lovely mother could make it! (funny that she had read the first 3 books before I even picked them up! but I finished the series before she did).

I have a cool mom.

our group took up 3 half rows in the theather.

Here is my row for as far as my camera can reach in the dark.


And then Em and I made up the last two on the other side.

Erin, Dialma, Stacey


And one last shot after the movie. The group rated it pretty good! Better than the last two for sure. A few more in our clan were able to make it into this picture.

Carrie, Camille, Angie, Teresa,
Sheri(mom), Emily, Me, Trenda, Amy, Susie, Jenny, Jena
Nickie, Sheena, Stacey, Erin

Doing this is so much fun. Seriously, I live in the BEST neighborhood EVER!
The Lord must love me because he has surrounded me with so many awesome people in my life.
The BEST of the BEST for sure!
and not just because of Twilight nights, these girls are amazing in all ways imaginable!
