July 31st is Harry Potter's (& JK Rowling's) birthday, so being a Potter myself, I always try to plan some sort of "birthday party" for the kids in the neighborhood to celebrate Harry Potter with me. We send invites to all the kids/teens' friends & we dress up in our house colors.
I made 2 cakes ("made" as in I bought 2 cakes, scraped all the frosting off of them, then refrosted them myself to fit the Harry Potter theme.)
We had a large bowl of Bertie Botts every flavor beans along with some fruits & veggies to snack on.
Craiger went all out & dressed up as Dumbledore which cracked me up. It was SO funny watching him sit there with all that hair in his face for the whole movie.
We watched Harry Potter 2 since we had a lot of little ones this time that hadn't read very far into the book series. We wanted to keep it as spoiler free as we could.
Half way through I served them all some butterbeer, which they loved.
Taya's friends from FSY came over which made it extra fun for her. I'm loving these great kids she met at FSY this year. They are super sweet & they have so much fun together.
