Eclipse Goodness and Giveaway!

Has anyone heard of this little movie?

It's not very well known. Anyone seen it yet? Anyone totally LOVE it?
Some of you may know that I'm a big Twilight fan. It's like my little sister. I make fun of it all the time but totally love the heck out of it.  Eclipse was way better then I thought it would be. Might be my favorite one yet.
A few of my favorite highlights were:

-some meadow scenes where they didn't act/lay like robots
-of course Edwards cute proposal

-I liked crazy hair Jasper more in this one. Especially with his cute southern accent...even with his stationary top lip.

-when Jacob said he was hotter then Edward bahaha

-I heart Charlie. I will say "Super" til the day I die.

There was one part at the end where Riley tells Edward "You're dead." and he TOTALLY looked like someone, but I couldn't figure out who. Then it all clicked...

Tell me he doesn't look like David Archuleta! Even when he says "You're dead" he sounds just like him. Tell me I'm not crazy here!!

Christy (my swag buddy) and I threw a pre-show party at our movie theater again. This year they wanted us to do it outside so both auditoriums showing Eclipse could play in the games.

Most people really liked this. Some did not.

So for a few hours before the show we had some super fun trivia, contests and prizes.

Oh the prizes! We had over 500 items donated from local and online businesses. We put some aside and are giving away a sweet Twilight package for one of you!

This package has over 25 Twilight related items. Things like shirts, keychains, earrings, bracelets, waterbottles, posters, vinyl...TONS of stuff!

Wanna win it?? Just leave a comment on this post telling me one of your favorite parts from Eclipse.

You can enter once a day until July 31. Please leave your email address if your comment doesn't link to your blog.

Here is a list of our awesome online contributors. Please go check out their great items! Most of them make non-Twilight related items as well, so go shopping!

Free Blog Frog & Twitter backgrounds

Here is a new batch of free Twitter and BlogFrog backgrounds. Some of the older ones I've posted were too big to use for Twitter, but I have just gone through and updated them all.

To use one of these images pick the layout you want below. Then copy and paste the code (right under the image) into your Blog Frog or Twitter settings and wallah! Each of these images will repeat themselves to create a pattern on your background. Try a few out and see which ones you like best!

All of these backgrounds come from the free Leelou blog templates, so now you can have your blog match your Twitter and Blog Frog accounts! I just ask that you be my friend on Twitter and/or Blog Frog if you use one!!
