Summer Vacation – Lily’s Potter Party

For a few months I knew I wanted to throw Lily a Harry Potter 10th birthday party. Because we would be in Austin at my mom’s house a couple weeks before her birthday I thought it would be fun to rope her into the planning and partying. She and my nieces once again (remember her Lemony Snicket party last year?) went out of their ways to pull this off.

The “Sorting Hat” cupcakes were so cute. We thought this would be a fun way to sort each “student” into their houses. Inside was one of the 4 colors of each of the Hogwarts Houses, bite in and find out which one is yours!

My niece…I mean Hagrid, led the new students through platform 9 3/4 to Diagon Ally. Then they immediately entered “Divination Class” watching their drinks transform before their very eyes to reveal great mysteries!
