Movie day is upon us, Harry Potter fans! So, I thought we could do a little Getting To Know You in the HP style.

1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav?
2. What would your Patronus be and why?
3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up.
4. Big plans for last movie?
 
1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav? Definitely read all the books, the last one is the only one I have repeat read and I think I might need a refresher of the last half before I see the movie. My favorite book is definitely the last one, although I really loved all of them. I loved the early ones for the sheer hilarity of how well she captured that age group.
2. What would your Patronum be and why? Not sure about this one
3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up. No, but I am thinking I might
4. Big plans for last movie? Micah is working this weekend, but we have a date night planned for Monday or Tuesday and I think we might go and see the IMAX 3D edition! :)
 
1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav? I've read them all multiple times. My favorite is Half Blood Prince. I read the ending scene with Dumbledore/Snape/Draco/Harry on a train in England. Talk about moving! It's been a long time since I've read #7, so I think I'm going to read it this weekend before we go see the movie.

I've also seen all the movies countless times. We just finished watching 7A last night to get us in the mood for the new one. But, my favorite movie is Prisoner of Azkeban. I thought they did such a great job with that book.

2. What would your Patronum be and why? I need to think about this and get back to you...

3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up. No, but I'm seriously thinking about it.

4. Big plans for last movie? We have a swim meet this weekend (surprise, surprise, surprise!), so we're thinking about going Monday night after work.
 
1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav? I've read them all multiple times. I would say the last one is my favorite

 2. What would your Patronum be and why? hmm.. I used a quiz to find my Patronus. It would be a whale lol

 3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up. No

 4. Big plans for last movie? I was going to go to the midnight showing but it is only in 3D and I don't like 3D movies. So I will be going on this weekend with my husband. He's only going to see the The Dark Knight Rises trailer lol
 
1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav?
I have read the books just one time. I have seen the movies three times now or so :) OH! And my fave book is the 4th one! It was so exciting! I really liked that movie too I think..but I also liked the Deathly Hallows really well.
2. What would your Patronum be and why?
Mine is an Otter and this is what it says: You are smart and playful. Many doubt your intelligence due to your bright attitude, but you don't care. When the time comes you always prove to be more valuable than expected. Sometimes your lack of seriousness causes you to be irritating to others, but overall you a friend to keep.
3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up.
nope! I will after I see the last one though!
4. Big plans for last movie?
The hubby and I are having a date night. Going to The Cheesecake Factory and out for a bit of shopping and then to see the movie. The kids are going to grandma and grandpa's for the night so we can be out late!

1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav? Read all the books and I have seen all the movies (we have them all on blueray). It's way too hard to pick a fave. I have a soft spot for the early ones but Deathly Hallows part one was REALLY good too.
2. What would your Patronum be and why? I used a quiz too (just cause it's fun ;)) it said... Your patronus is a Cheeta. Your fast and bounding with energy, you are a quick learner and a very good wizard. Some of your favorite pass times include sports and wizardry. You are loving caring and brave. This is one of the most powerful patronuses. Your patronus is a Cheeta.
3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up. Ha, no not yet.
4. Big plans for last movie? Nope, we probably won't get to see it till it comes out on dvd. Not many babysitting options in our little village.

Oh this sounds heavenly. Have fun!
 
1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav? I've read all the books and seen all the movies numerous times. I'm trying to read all 7 again before I go see the movie, but I'm only at the end of 3...just don't have enough time!
2. What would your Patronum be and why? I like owls...so probably that :)
3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up. no, I don't think so
4. Big plans for last movie? my husband and I are going Saturday night since Friday is our son's birthday
 
1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav? Yes. I'm a Harry Potter nerd. I've read them all multiple times. Also the films (though I far prefer the books). My favorites are Prisoner of Azkaban and The Deathly Hallows.

2. What would your Patronum be and why? According to a quiz, my Patronus is a Phoenix. I probably would have chosen something like an Elephant, lol. Because I'm slow but steady, family oriented and I have a good memory. And just because I like them. LOL! Ooh or a horse? They are my most favorite.

3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up. I have.



4. Big plans for last movie? Crying in my popcorn. Ummm...in all seriousness, I have a movie date planned with DH. We are going to see the film tomorrow morning and then grabbing some lunch. Woot! I'm so excited!!!
 
1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav? I lost count...seriously it's bad. I am entering the mid 100's on the movies for sure. My favorite movie: The Goblet of Fire Favorite Book: The Deathly Hallows, I was vindicated :) those of you who know the books know what I'm talking about (SS)
2. What would your Patronum be and why? hmmmm....a hippo :) I'm dangerous if you sneak up on me

1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav? yes and yes, and like Kelly, way to many times to count! I like to just put on the movies randomly throughout the year in the background...this week we did a HP countdown. watching 2 movies a day- today we still need to watch 6 and 7a....ya, im a total nerd too! fav? dang, i'd have to go with 3 also!

2. What would your Patronum be and why? this stumped me...i immediately thought of a whale-cuz i love them- not sure what that says about me though-hahah. Taking a quiz, I was actually a Stag-haha!

3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up. sadly, i guess i haven't! will have to fix that!!!

I have read the books I think 2 times each...the movies...I can't even tell you how many times I have seen them...Just last week my step DD and I watched all the movies on Blu-Ray...and then we watched them again when ABC Family showed them. Goblet of Fire is my favorite movie and Deathly Hallows is my favorite book.

2. What would your Patronum be and why? I got a Hare

3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up. No...but I am seriously thinking about getting this tattoo lol:

I've read all the books and am currently reading them to my DD (we're on book 3 which is still my favorite book). I've only seen up to Order of the Phoenix movie wise.

2. What would your Patronum be and why? I took a quiz and got wolf (my second choice was hedgehog..lol)

3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up. No but I really should.

4. Big plans for last movie? We'll probably have to wait until it's out on DVD....we very rarely go to the movies.

Brynne - that is so fun!

1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav?
I bought a few of the books, but haven't found the time to read them yet. I have seen the first 3 movies, but haven't gotten around to seeing the rest (but it is on my bucket list to check them out of the library when dh and I get some time to watch a movie).

2. What would your Patronum be and why?
I have no idea. But I looked it up and found it in the Urban Dictionary (the first search hit) :hide, and I think that really isn't what you meant. :giggle

3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up.

Mine is a Hawk
Nope.

4. Big plans for last movie?
Nope.



Oh my goodness - Laura, I think you meant to say Patronus and not Patronum...

Ooohhh Val! I am jealous of the midnight showing..I am taking Colin so I can't let him stay up that late (he's 9). I can't wait to hear what you think!
 
1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav? I've read all the books twice, once forever ago and then again this year in preparation for the last movie! I've seen the movies countless times but we are currently rewatching them all this week before going to the last movie. We've only watched two so far so we might have to skip a couple of the middle ones, lol! I don't know if I have a fav. I guess the last book would be my favorite book, although I do like the 6th book because Ginny and Harry finally get together! My favorite movie is the first one because they are all so young and cute! :)

2. What would your Patronum be and why? It says Dolphin.. hm sure why not?

3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up. Nope. Not sure if I will, I don't really have any pics. Maybe I'll try to get some this weekend.

4. Big plans for last movie? Nick and I are going to see it on Saturday night. He gave me a gift card to a fancy movie theater that has recliners and serves dinner and such for Mother's day so we are going to use that. Plus, you can reserve your seats online so we don't have to worry about lines.
 
Movie day is upon us, Harry Potter fans! So, I thought we could do a little Getting To Know You in the HP style.

1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav?Oh yes, multiple times!
2. What would your Patronus be and why?not sure...
3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up.not yet, but it's top of my list of "to be scrapped"
4. Big plans for last movie?we ordered 2 tickets for the midnight showing thinking Kyra would take a friend. But they all had tickets so I'm going! We went to pick up our tickets today and they printed out as double feature tickets!? So we talked to the manager and she had no clue what happened but told us we could use them. That means in less than five hours I'll be in my seat! And we won't have to sit outside all night waiting in line. So excited!
 
Oh Brynn! My DD and I are thinking about HP tatoos too! Maybe the deathly hallows symbol.


Oh...and how excited am I? I didn't get to see part one in the theater because of my back and now almost by magic, I get to see it! I have a friend in line holding our places! eek!

OMG! I love this! :)

1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav? I've read all the books several times and watch the movies whenever I catch them flipping channels. I've seen them all at the theaters.
2. What would your Patronus be and why? Is it sad that I've thought of this. It would be a pug, like my dog! It would jump all over my enemies and lick them to death and also shed a lot of misty-like hair.
3. Have you ever scrapped a Harry Potter layout? If so, link us up. I can't believe that I haven't! But it's on my list.
4. Big plans for last movie? I'm hoping to see it this weekend. Maybe on Monday since I'm off!

There's also a big Harry Potter experience exhibit here in NYC that I'm dying to go to. I think I'll cry when I see it! I know I'm going to cry at the movie.
 
1. Have you read and the books and seen the movies? How many times? Fav?
