Harry Potter Party!

Every year all the girls in our family have a themed "tea party" together! This year my sister Haylie was the host, and the theme was Harry Potter! Each person was given a character to dress up as, and the little girls just came in white shirts and black pants for their "school uniform." Kallin and I were given awesome characters! Bellatrix Lestrange and Fleur Delacour. I forgot to charge my Nikon, and I had to use a digital camera... so the pictures aren't as great as I'd like them to be, but here are our costumes and everything else!



Everyone met at up and went to Diagon Alley. This is where the little girls got their robes, wands, and everything. Kallin and I got wands too :) They were LEGIT and handmade! Mine was kind of dark looking because I was Bellatrix. LOVED IT :)



Here's me as Bellatrix. Yep, that's my real hair haha! It took forever to comb it out afterwards... but totally worth it, right? ;)



After Diagon Alley, we went to "Hogwarts." It was the coolest house ever! This house took 7 years to build, by the man who lives in it. He carved pictures and designs in the wood everywhere, and all of the rooms were different and cool. PERFECT for Hogwarts :) 







Here's the whole group! 


Here's the table, food, and other decorations! Haylie did such a great job! 



These owl cookies are famous in our family :) 






The chocolate frogs were SO awesome and good!


The activities were fun! Of course went to Diagon Alley, went through Platform 9 3/4, 
and had dinner... but we also got put into houses with the sorting hat, had a magician 
come to teach magic tricks, had desserts, and a tour of the house! 



Cute Jace as Harry Potter! He was the only
exception for a boy being at the Tea Party ;)


It was so much fun being with all the girls again. Every year it's so great! I'm blessed and lucky to be surrounded by such amazing women in my life!

Love, Karli Sue
