This weekend was MY TIME!

On Saturday, I had the pleasure of joining 13 other women at the Harrison House Bed and Breakfast in downtown Columbus for a Twilight Moms overnight.

We had the most wonderful time, meeting new people and spending time with those we already knew and obsessing over all things Twilight. In fact, I only knew one person before going. My friends and Brian thought I was crazy, but I knew I would have a lot of fun and I did just that!

Lynn, the owner of the B&B, told us the history of the house, that the Anthony Thomas candy family had lived in the home at one time, about the 4 spirits (Cedric, Jakob, Moby and a woman) who currently resided there.  Cedric liked to smoke and occasionally you would walk through the upstairs and smell cigarette smoke briefly. I smelled it a few times in different areas and before I fell asleep, I smelled smoke in our room for about 15 seconds. The woman spirit likes to sit on the beds, leaving behind a butt print. Our linens were smoothed out and there were two butt prints left on my roommate Mandy and I’s bed in the Meadow Room. It was very creepy but cool.

We watched Twilight, New Moon and Eclipse. Had oven fried chicken, salad and mushroom ravioli for dinner. Cupcakes, complete with Team Jacob and Team Edward rings in the icing. Lots of wine, though I didn’t have any. I did have some vodka and strawberry banana though!

The coordinators, Kendra and Lori, did an amazing job! They even made sure we had some swag to take home with us. An Eclipse cup, magnets, bookmarks, stickers.Twilight Sweethearts. One girl made chocolate chess pieces in honor of Breaking Dawn. Another girl contributed a Twilight Blend of coffee. And Lori made floral arrangements for all of the rooms and we got to take them home with us.

Sunday came way too quickly and before I knew it, we needed to pack up and go our separate ways. I came away with new friendships and memories.

I look forward to the next Twilight Moms get together.

I also look forward to next weekend when it becomes MY TIME again with a scrapbooking/craft weekend at LCC, Friday night and all day Saturday.

Sometimes it’s nice to take off the Mom hat and take a little break to refresh.

MY TIME was definitely worth it.

New Moon Movie and Eclipse Pictures

To say that I’m excited about this movie is an understatement.

I bought tickets for the midnight showing early, Sept. 09 to be exact.

I’m re-reading Twilight for the third time so that I can re-read New Moon for the third time.

I thought we could play a little quote game.

Take your copy of New Moon.

Find a page using numbers from your birthday. (example: Mine is May 25th. so I’m looking on page 525)

Find a quote from that page that you would like to share.

Post it in the comments.

I know a lot of you are fans and just as excited as me!!

My quote from Stephenie Meyer’s New Moon, page# 525.

“Your things were never gone,” he told me. “I knew it was wrong, since I promised you peace without reminders. It was stupid and childish, but I wanted to leave something of myself with you. The CD, the pictures, the tickets– they’re all under your floorboards.” -Edward Cullen

Eclipse Movie and Breaking Dawn Movie

Can’t wait to read your quotes!

Yes, it’s true.

I am alive.

I know you were wondering, I was starting to wonder my self.

I have been completely immersed in all things Twilight.

All 4 books finished.

Watched the movie, more times than I care to admit.

The soundtrack plays in my mind involuntarily now.

I even read Midnight Sun, all 264 pages available. Stephanie, yes we are on a first name basis, better finish that book. I might not be able to go on if she doesn’t! In fact, she better be so excited about getting it done that she decides to write Edward’s account on the other 3 books as well. At least that is my fantasy at the moment.

I knew I would get sucked into the Twilight obesession. I just did not realize how great that obesession would become.

It’s a bittersweet feeling being done.

Anyone know of any other good series?

Besides Harry Potter of course, I’ve read that one

I got caught in the web that is the Twilight Saga. I flew through the first book, and watched the movie when I was done. I love both.

How can one not fall in love with Edward and Bella.

I am now on the second book and as I read those first three chapters I cried thick tears of misery. I’m so depressed right now. I feel as though I can’t continue on with the books. I know that I will, but I haven’t been affected so deeply by a book in a long time.

Brian reminded me that it is JUST a book.

Well this book has broken my heart. It better redeem itself and fast!
