Hogwarts Sleepover Part 2

After dinner, the girls watched the first Harry Potter movie (shocker!).  

At intermission, I made them mini butterbeers.

I swear they weren't alcoholic!  Lol!

So the sleepover part of Rylee's party wasn't quite as successful.  

Maddan couldn't sleepover so she left at 10:00.  

Emily had trouble sleeping so her mom came and picked her up at about 1:30.  

Luckily, Emily came back in the morning since I had signed the girls 

up for an online potions class.

They made invisible ink reappear with heat.  

All in all, they Harry Potter party was magical!  :)

Expecto Patronum!

Rio photo bomb!  

I guess she wanted to be considered as one of the animals too!

Hogwarts Sleepover Part 1

Rylee wanted a sleepover with her friends (Emily and Maddan) for her birthday.  She decided to make it a Harry Potter themed sleepover since they had all just finished reading the first book.

We sent out Hogwarts acceptance letters (invitations) and the girls arrived on Fri Sept 14th.

Rylee came up with what she wanted at the party.  She was very creative.  Most of the ideas were hers and not Pinterest.  Lol!

Everyone got to pick their Hogwart's pet.

She also had a wand making station...

and the girls had to find the golden snitch throughout the party.

She wanted everyone to paint their own patrons tshirt.

We did the iron on letters ahead of time.

The patronus charm is like a spirit animal so they each painted their animal.  

I never thought they would turn out, but they were awesome!

Notice the floating candles?

After dinner, the kids all got sorted into their houses 

based on the color of the frosting inside their cupcake.  

Red for Gryffindor!

Green for Slytherin!

Rylee made plastic canvas bookmarks so everyone got the "scarf" that went with their house.  

Emily got Ravenclaw and Maddan was Hufflepuff.  :)
