Yes, it's more than a book series to me.

My childhood is officially over! The end of the movies was definitely bittersweet. We kept up with tradition and stood in line for the midnight premiere, but decided that because this was the last one, we needed to step it up a little bit, so we all dressed up! We also wanted to make sure we were in the shade because of how hot it was going to be. We knew that we would have to get there super early to ensure a shady spot, so we planned on 4am! Security at Tempe Marketplace was not letting anybody on the grounds until 6am, so we hung out in the parking lot for the next two hours. When security finally did let people in, it was like running of the bulls! People on both sides of the theaters were running to guarantee spots. We ended up being about 30th in line. But we opted to stay outside for the day to keep our ice chests and snacks, and were first in the outside line. Here we go!

Here's Taylor trying to eat her toes, but not having any success because of her socks.

and ferenc was there too.

And my sister. I made her a shirt that said "i'd commit sins for the Weasley Twins"

The 20 hours spent in line was definitely worth it! Such a good movie (although the books will always be better!) I'm so sad that it's over!
