Harry Potter Art Work

My kiddos are all really into Harry Potter right now. We're reading the books together, they love the Lego video game, and there is always a potions class, a Mandrake potting or some other wizarding adventure going on in our home.  Parseltongue and English accents are common, while robes and wands have become quite trendy around here. Their recent artwork reflects this love for all things Harry Potter.

Mudquest

In May our city hosted a family fun run called "Mudquest". Landon was not interested in getting muddy at all, but the girls humored me and signed up. Our friend Elizabeth joined us while Chris, Landon and Elizabeth's son went to free comic book day in Austin. At the end there was a fire truck hosing everyone down. We had tons of fun and decided the boys definitely need to join us next year.
