Team Marcus

I'm sorry for the recent blogging absence, but I have been a bit preoccupied with reading Breaking Dawn. I made a promise to myself to slowly read every chapter, every small detail and take in all Bella and Edward moments by savoring it! I also didn't want to read any spoilers so I have restrained myself for the past few weeks to not just jump on the internet and read them all. I have now finally finished and have enjoyed every minute of Bellward Bliss! It was all I hoped for and more!


Now to my delight...I get to share these pictures with you from the Breaking Dawn Release Party at midnight that I went to. (For reals though, was there any doubt that I wouldn't go?) I went to the local Barnes and Noble's party in support of Breaking Dawn, and of course, they were having a costume contest.
The contest was based upon who could be the best bridesmaid and groomsmen for Edward and Bella. I, personally, thought we were the best dressed. Did I say "we"? Oh yes, my amazing, I can't believe my wife is making me do this , talented and loving husband even dressed up as a groomsmen. The winners received Twilight t-shirts and got to receive their books first at midnight. Before I get all of your hopes up, we didn't win. We lost to the Satanic groomsmen and the bridesmaid "who looked like she stepped out of the 80's" but it was still fun to think of us as Cullen's for the night. Team Edward or Team Jacob? Puh-leez,...I had my very own Marcus Cullen! (Kinda has a nice ring to it.)
Here we are crouching ready to spring on the nearby humans. What can I say? It's a newborn thing.My mom, she's such a great Twilight fan, as well as a fellow Team Edward Member. We love her dedication to such a great cause. Here we are with my younger cousin Jennae (a beautiful bridesmaid, who I think would make a great Rosalie) and my Aunt Caryle. My aunt is a Twi-hard. She started the book and finished it on Saturday...and, oh yeah, did I mention that she almost had it finished again by Sunday!? Definite Twi-hard material.
With my great newborn eyesight and sense of smell, I was able to find another member of the Cullen clan. Here's a picture of me and fellow twilighter, Alicia. We have gone through every Breaking dawn quote, every aching countdown minute and more to finally get our books. Here we are FINALLY with our prized possessions. This final picture was all of my excitement in one. Being number 45 in line never felt so good. We were out the doors reading by 12:13am. What a fantastic night! Hope you all enjoyed the book as much as I did!
