New Moon, Some Wedding Pics, and more!

Hey everyone!
Hope you are having a swell day thus far.

I am.
But I am super tired!
I went with some NEW awesome
friends last night [this morning] to see the 12:20am
premiere of New Moon.

Lots of people have commented that they want
me to write a review right away about the
movie... so, here I am.  Just for you.

But first...
Thanks so much for
all the nice comments about
my latest camera strap slipcover!!
You all are so nice!  I love you!  :)

So... here is another - NEW camera strap slipcover design...
The Ruffle Trio!  What do you think?

Photobucket

Adding ruffles has made these even more unique!
It's amazing what a little more girlie adds.  ;)


Edited to add:  If you need your camera strap slipcover by Christmas,
ALL orders Must be placed no later than Dec. 12th!

****

I can be a total editing slacker.
I mean.  Do you know how many pictures I took
at my brother's wedding?  About 1,000.
Oye that's a lot!

Anyway... here are more!

This is my brother and my mom.
They are totally the same when it comes
to being totally crazy goof offs.
They will make you laugh your butt off.
Seriously.  Funny.
But.  You'd never know it from this picture...

Photobucket

You'll just have to trust me.  :)

And here is my brother, my mom and my dad...

Photobucket

My dad is so handsome.
Don't you think so?
Love you dad!!

And, here are the rings.  I could decide which one I liked best...

I still have about 450 to edit.
Now my head is starting to hurt thinking about it.
I just have so much to do!

Oh, and here are these again.
Of my girls.
Because I LOVE these pictures...

I know, I'm a freak.
Moving on.
;)

Ok, sorry.  If you've made it this far, Congratulations!
I tend to get off track very easily.
Sometimes I just have so much to say.
Well... so much I think I need to say... see here I go getting off track AGAIN!

OK!  New Moon!

Photobucket

So, I went with some new friends!  I had never
met these friends before last night!
I knew them on Twitter and from talking on the phone.
It was so fantastic to meet them in person.

Denise... she is awesome. In fact, she makes fantastic beaded
jewelry!  I just bought some for someone...
And I was so excited to open the package and see
them for myself!  GORGEOUS!
Can't wait to give them to that someone.  ;)
Check out Denise's shop here.

Then I met Julie.  She is awesome too.
So much fun!!  She kept me laughing.

Thanks ladies for going!
You made it even more fun!

Let's talk New Moon...
No spoilers.  Promise.

I will say this...
I REALLY REALLY liked it!
And, that's saying a lot, since I REALLY REALLY
didn't like Twilight the movie.

But I liked New Moon the movie so much...
in fact for the first time EVER... I like a movie
more than I liked the book!
Crazy, I know.

Also... I truly felt sorry for Jacob.
That never happened before.
I got teared up in several parts where Jacob
was involved.  He's just so cute and loveable
in the movie.  Whereas in the book, he was incredibly
annoying.

Big BIG thing... Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart
were SO much better at acting in this movie!
There were a couple parts where it was cheesy...
but it was nothing like Twilight.

Oh, and the wolves!  THE WOLVES!
They added an incredible goodness to this movie.

Photobucket

New Moon was so much better than Twilight
that I would actually go see it in the theatre again!

Edited to add... THE ENDING ROCKED!

Go see it.
Come back here... tell me what
you thought!


Also... go HERE to enter to win another
camera strap slipcover...
you might flip at which one
I am giving away.  :)


Today is the deadline to join
the Ornament Exchange!!

I'll be back with more!  Right now I have a quilt to sew!

Tutu said...

I'm taking my girls to see New Moon Sunday (when tickets are $5!!). I was excited before, but your review has me super pumped! I didn't love Twilight either. You have given me hope that New Moon will ROCK!

Party of Five said...

I love your camera straps! Going to see the movie tonight - can't wait!

JennyB said...

Love your Pom Pom flourish camera strap! Can't wait to see New Moon either!!!

Loving the ruffles, but I think my favorite is still "French Girlie Wallpaper". Great stuff. Cheers.

Melissa said...

Oh, how I love that Ruffled Black and White Damask! You're killing me over here!

Ashley said...

This is my favorite camera strap ever!

BlackCatMima said...

I saw New Moon at midnight last night too - and LOVED it! While I didn't hate the Twilight film as much as some, I was pretty disappointed that it wasn't better. Some things I enjoyed but the film as a whole was just lacking...
New Moon is like 100 times better! I had a really hard time getting through the book when I read it, it just dragged for me and I wanted to slap Bella on like every page.
I have always liked Jacob. I've always seen the big lovable goofy dog side of him in the books. He didn't bug me until Breaking Dawn where.... ewwww. But I blame Stephenie Meyer for that. That book is a hot mess...
But back to the film - I LOVED the wolves, the acting was so much better, Taylor Lautner totally impressed me. I liked the ending and can't wait for Eclipse!
I wish we'd seen more of the Cullens - especially at the end, I really like them and think the casting there is so good. I'm so glad they'll have bigger parts in the coming films.
Same for the Voluturri - can't wait to see more of them. They totally creeped me out! And OMG Dakota Fanning - I've been a huge fan of her forever, but wow wow wow I can't wait to see more Jane!

Plain Jane said...

I am new to your blog and love it. Your camera straps are to die for and they are definately on my x-mas list now. My favorite has to be the one that is pictured on The Vintage Pearl, the black & white Damask with the green & white polka dots. I am not sure if I can wait to see if I win with the giveaway or x-mas for that matter, so it may be an early x-mas gift to me from me!

Love all your stuff, glad I found your blog!

Deanna said...

I cannot wait to see New Moon. Hubby will take me to see it sometime soon but I couldn't do at late night/early morning showing. I poop out too easily right now.

I absolutely love the ruffle camera straps. Your camera straps were cute before but with the ruffle, they might be too hard for me to resist. :) Great job!!

Melanie @ Whimsical Creations said...

Love the ruffles!

The wedding photos are beautiful. You have a lovely family.

I am glad you did the review. I want to see it, but the first one was annoying. The acting in the first one was way to cheesy. Glad to hear their acting has gotten better. I am looking forward to seeing it now.

Kymmie said...

Very Shannon said...

I thought of you when I went on Friday night. I loved it too, and agree with you that the wolves were super cool! I almost got swayed from team edward to team jacob due to all the 6 pack hotness...almost. I enjoyed the film alot and didn't want it to end.
It kicked twilight's ass in the film dept for sure. Not so much cheese, and more likeness to the book. Let the countdown begin for june for the next one!

Salinda said...

i'm with you. new moon was so much better than the book! and I love ruffle camera strap!

Heather @ Glitter and Gloss said...

Team Jacob!! Loved the movie, love the picture of Jacob's abs and love the ruffley camera straps!
