We finished Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone this week. Movie time! We made a day of it. This worked out well for me. When it is a million degrees outside and too hot to even enjoy swimming for very long, it is a welcomed distraction to have inside projects to work on. The G's helped me make pumpkin pasties in the morning.
Once Eden was down for her nap, they spent the afternoon blowing up and then coloring balloons. We did red and white ones (because we didn't have maroon and gold) to celebrate Griffindor's winning of the house cup.
During the movie we dined on ciabatta reuben melts (an ode to the corned beef sandwiches Ron has on the Hogwarts Express), traditional veg, pumpkin pasties, and butter beer (even though it doesn't pop up for another book or so.)
Grace is begging to get to the book store... Maybe we can get through Chamber of Secrets before summer is out. :)
