It's FINALLY here!

It's here.

Are you ready? Do you have your box of tissues? I do. I can't believe it's finally here. I thought this day would never come. So, as a celebration, I have a New Moon treat for you!

Once upon a time, when I was a fresh off the turnip truck at the University of Alabama, I wanted to be that person who picked out the music for movies. I had no idea if that was a one person job, or what it was even called. But.. I wanted to do it. I was going to add a James Taylor song to every movie that I did.( Huge James Taylor fan, here) But.. alas, it didn't work out thanks to Communications 120. (Let's not get into the inner workings of that professor, it's for the best)

Anyway, back to today, my New Moon treat for you is my predictions for what songs from the soundtrack are going to be in what scenes. (Excited, aren't you? If you're not, don't tell me.) I realize there are certain scenes that may not make the movie and a couple of scenes that are completely new, but this was a still a fun game for me.

So, Here goes:

* Meet Me On The Equinox- Opening of the movie
*Friends- something to do with the wolfpack
*Hearing damage- could possibly be the drowning scene
*Possibility- Most definitely has to be part of the break up scene
*A White Demon Love Song- more of Bella's dark times
*Satellite Heart- part of Bella's dark times, if the scene makes the movie then I think it could be when she goes back to the Cullen house after they have left Forks
*I Belong To You- I think it has to be when Edward is in Forks or perhaps when they are headed to the voting scene
*Rosyln- When Bella finds out about Edward going to the Volturi
*Done All Wrong- In Port Angeles with Jessica
*Monsters- It's either a werewolf scene or the birthday party scene
* The Violet Hour- When Jacob is "sick" and avoiding Bella
*Shooting the Moon- maybe when she is cliff diving? This one totally threw me for a loop
*Slow Life- one of scary dream sequences
* No Sound But The Wind- more of Bella's dark times
* New Moon ( The Meadow)- When she finds the meadow..duh.
*Solar Midnite- I have a mental image of the first time you see Jane and Alec
* All I Believe In- hanging out with Jacob
*Die Fledermaus- Playing in the background when they visit the Volturi

So.. What do you think? Who's headed out at midnight tonight? Who's not going to see it? Who doesn't even know what movie I am talking about? Who's wearing a Team Edward or Team Jacob shirt?

On another note... HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GIGI! WE LOVE YOU!

Can I get something to wipe the drool off?

I have never understood how someone can be Team Jacob. He totally steps all over Edward's territory. He has no respect of boundaries. Plus, ya know, he is just REALLY annoying.
Edward is kind and gentle and respectful. He treats Bella like the prize she should be. ( Funny story, I would consider John more of a Jacob than Edward.)He is also sparkly and chiseled.
But, seriously, have you seen him???? RPattz is totally drool worthy. He IS Edward Cullen. These pictures alone would have sealed his fate as a heart throb.




I am just glad he is legal.

And So The Lion Fell In Love With The Lamb...

Anyone who knows me, knows I have a slight obsession with the Twilight series. Who am I kidding? It totally takes over my life. If any man ever needed a manual, he should channel Edward Cullen. He is the best there is. I love all the cheesiness of it.

The movie comes out on DVD this month. In fact, it comes out in 16 days. I cannot wait. I can sit and watch Bella and Edward all day long. Just like I used to do with Harry Potter. Harry deserves his own post too. I cannot wait for all of the extended scenes and deleted scenes and interviews with the director. Yay!!! If you haven't read the books, they are fabulous and you should. Just beware, they will take over your life. You will not be able to put them down. And you will wish Edward Cullen were real. Who cares if he is a vampire?

Thanksgiving with the McPhillips!

Every Thanksgiving John and I alternate between my mom's side of the family and his dad's side of the family. I always look forward to going to John's dad's side, because they spend a week at the beach! HELLO! Who wouldn't love that?!!? Not to mention the 50-60 relatives that we rarely get to see! The last time most of his relatives saw us was when Addison was 6 weeks old. So, I took Monday off of work to get the family packed and ready... what a job! Packing for 3 for a week is tough! John recently purchased for the family an AppleTV, which is one of the most incredible inventions. You can buy tv shows from itunes, download them to the AppleTV and then pack up the device and take it with you and plug it up to a tv there. We were never without Mickey Mouse or Imagination Movers! We also packed up our 42" flat screen tv in the car. John always wants the best picture possible! :) I, of course, forgot my camera. I have ZERO pictures of Addison with this side of the family. I hope we get to see everyone at Joseph and Tracie's wedding this summer. Thanksgiving evening, Addison got 3 fingers caught in an extremely heavy door. I was positive they were broken and she was going to lose one of her finger nails. We had it checked when we got back into town, and everything was fine. It rained Friday when we left, so it was a yucky drive back. We drove Addison to Birmingham and dropped her off with Boom-Pa and GiGi(my dad and step-mom) and John and I headed for Tuscaloosa for the Iron Bowl. Addison had her very own purple tree to decorate with Mickey Mouse ornaments. I think she was really proud of it!! 

We also got the proofs back from Addison's 2 year pictures with Stacie Dunn and they are adorable!! Here is the link if you would like to look at them. There are only 80 pictures!
