Potter Party

It's time for our annual Harry Potter Birthday Party! Harry's birthday is acutally July 31, but we celebrated it today. We kept it pretty low key.

We all held our new cousin, Marcus Scott Kelly. What a cutie!
We ate a yummy dinner of pizza, butter beer,
licorice wands and
pumpkin pasties.
We ate outside on the patio. It was so hot. Plus, the butter beer was warm, so we were all quite toasty. After dinner we visited and took a drive in Greg's new car. The Kellys headed home and Grandma, Gavin and Enoch watched Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
The kids spent some time out in the tent. Nobody sleep out there, but we put in up in honor of Harry Potter going camping in Book 7 (plus, the kids have been bugging us all summer to get it out).
It was a fun night. We love Harry Potter in our family. The books are so amazing. Gavin started rereading book 1 on Monday and just finished Book 6 last night. Enoch wants Greg to start reading the "Herry Potter" books to him at bedtime now. We can't wait for the last two movies.

It was so cute to see your kids with Marcus and explaining the belly button/umbilical cord to Enoch.
