"Twi-hards!" Katie has picked-up on my obsession with the Twilight, so we thought it would be fun to have a "girls night" and go to the New Moon release party at Walmart... at midnight! Katie is "Team Jacob" and I'm "Team Edward." We got awesome T-shirts to wear to the party. We went out to dinner with Grandma & planned to spend the night in Richfield. Katie was all psyched-up about the party!!
10:30 p.m. -- Katie is still wide awake and super-excited
10:40 p.m. -- We get to Walmart, sign up for the raffles & check out the New Moon gear
11:00 p.m. -- They announce that we can begin lining up; Katie & I were close to the checkouts so we got a great spot in line!
11:15 p.m. Waiting & waiting & waiting...
11:25 p.m. Katie is getting tired & tells me, "Mom, this party SUCKS!!"
(She later told me she thought maybe we'd get to meet the cast of the movie... poor kid!! Major dissappointment!!)
11:30 p.m. Thank goodness my sister-in-law, Carrie, and my niece, Shannon, showed up to wait with us -- Katie perked right back up when she saw Shan!!
12:01 a.m. Let the fun begin!! Everyone got excited when the line started to move!
12:20 a.m. Our turn!
Shannon & Katie leaving Walmart
12:30 a.m. -- Woo Hoo!! We got our movie!! What a rush!! (JK!)
1:00 a.m. -- Finally! We made it back to Grandma's with our very own copy of New Moon. YEAH!!
Pathetic, I know! But this is about as exciting as my life gets these days, so we'll take whatever fun we can find -- however lame it is!
