END OF AN ERA
A Twlight Saga era!
Wore our "Badge of Courage!"
Met up at 9:30am for a Big Power Breakfast.
Got to the theatre around 11am.
Watched all five movies in a row......
....along with a whole buncha other huge fans!
(Last movie wasn't over till after midnight.)
~~~~~~~~~~
The rest is history now, an end of an era.
Of big-time book reading.
Of big-time going to years worth of midnight premiers.
Of big-time chattering and gossiping about them afterwards.
We diehard "Twihards" on 11-15-12 at The Marathon

My eldest (on right) and I started going to the "Marathons"
when it was just movie 1 and 2...then we did 1,2 and 3...
then 1, 2, 3 and 4..............so we were quite ready for the all five set! We were experts, haha!
Funny, they let you bring pillows and blankets and set up a little mini sight....I even packed regular food to bring in as I am not much of a junk food eater.....but of course I had to have some popcorn. When one buys the Marathon Golden Ticket one gets $10 towards concesssion stuff, how much fun it that?
Best line of all time:
"Does that guy even own a shirt?"

We were so GLAD pther sister Kate is moved back now
from Cali to join us this last time.

It's over now,
but shall never be forgotten.
but shall never be forgotten.
ONE LAST TIME TO SHOUT OUT
"GO TEAM JACOB!"
(Oh, and of course a shout to JUDY for a "Go Team Edward," too!)
Holy cow! What stamina! A what a fun thing to do. Thanks so much for the poetry in a comment you left for me. Warms my heart.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what you're talking about, but I know someone who does! =)
ReplyDeleteJust came back from the movies! We may have done a midnight show here & there, but never a marathon! You go girls!! Bet it was fun!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I never saw that surprise part of the movie coming. My daughter & I were almost outraged before we realized it! lol
Looks like you know how to have fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun way to spend time with the girls! I love the series, maybe there will be clubs and reunions just like the Trekies?! One can only hope.
ReplyDeleteHave a happy and blessed Thanksgiving!
Hugs,
Patti
Wow, way to go girls! I read all the books, but only saw the first movie. Cut pic of all of you.
ReplyDeleteDie hard fans you are! I saw the first movie only but daughter #2 and one granddaughter like the series. How much popcorn would one eat during this time span at the theatre? LOL

How fun! My daughter just started reading the Twilight books ... now, me? I'm a crazy Harry Potter fan (though I never did the midnight viewings I did get the books overnight delivery)!
