Feeling Loopy
Hearing mostly quiet, now that the kids plus a spare at the pool with hubby!
I'm So Excited
Oh, and Hammer wasn't smiling big due to braces... lol
Even though I don't like the Pointer Sisters...lol...
There are quite a few countdowns going on in my house!
First, the countdown until school is over. Thankfully, one more full day tomorrow, and a 1/2 day Friday, and then... It's OVER.
Then, Hammers countdown to Transformers: The Movie, which is the Steven Speilberg/ILM collaboration of live-action and computer animated characters of the successful cartoon series.
July 4th, coming to a theater near you.
There was a even a prequel novel, that Hammer, myself and Hubby, have all read.
Big doings around here, as you can see.
But that isn't the BIGGEST countdown in the house...
This is the biggest, most exciting by far, because it involves the most family members, and there are actually 2 Harry Potter related countdowns.
First, on July 11, is the US premier of the movie, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, based on the 5th book in the series. This is a much different time in Harry's life. He is a teenager, and there is a lot of danger and action, as Voldemort (the personification of evil) is now in bodily form and out to get Harry.
Second, on July 21, is the final installment in the book series, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Dumbledore is gone, it appears Snape has turned to the 'dark' side, Hogwarts may close, Harry and Ginny have broken up, and there are 3 more pieces of Voldemort's soul that Harry must find in order to stop him forever.
I will probably buy the book at midnight again and read all night long!
We will buy at least 2 books, so Hammer and my dad can read, also, then Fuzzy. Pumpkin has read up to book 4, so she needs to get going! LOL
Uh oh... the kids are back from the pool with Hubby... gotta bolt!
be well,
Dawn

Love the cat pix! I know I can't wait to see Harry Potter either! I also can't believe they are still in school. How come? Snow days?

I'm rather looking forward to the Transformers movie, myself! I can't believe your schools are still going!

I have seen the first two Harry Potter films, yep I'm behind. Hopefully I will catch up when the last one is released. Kinda hate the fact I have to wait till everything comes out on DVD as I need to watch with close captioning due to my deafness. Yes, they do have equipment in the movie theatres so deaf people can have the theatre experience just not in my neck of the woods.
The Transformer movie is something that I know I definitely want to see just for the comp. animated parts alone. Wishing you love and peace! (Hugs) Indigo
