Brittny and Drew arrived, reading their invitation, learning they have to free the kids upstairs.

Downstairs at the "bank".

Splitting the bubble gum coins so they can purchase school supplies.

*BG* My grandson

Receiving the first part of the costume.

Oohs and Ahhs for glasses or hats? Or amazement that I kept pulling something out of a little box.  Not Marygrace. She's about to sneeze.

My heart melts.
He's so much like his daddy.

Such a handsome stepson.

The sign for the Apothecary is behind Brittny on cupboard, they're getting their potion kits.

My 25yo son was intrigued enuf to want to follow and see what was going on.  He even took the final exam. He's the only one who failed. He said his wife creates his world. Tanya laughed cuz she knows better.

OK, I went to get out the egg, it fell apart. I don't understand if "rubber eggs" are supposed to be uncooked eggs or not. My husband still laughs about that.

Time to head downstairs to Eeylops Owl Emporium

My kids and stepkids are nervous I'm making them go further out in to public areas.

Couldn't be cuter.

Downstairs feeling trepidation

Worried,"Where are we going?!?"

Katie's telling them excited, "Owls!!!"

See the lightening tattoo on his forehead?

Happy kids.

*Heart melts*

Wands decorated with readymade ribbons.

After they get their class supplies, they have to figure out where the invisible train station platform is, and run thru the stairs. My grandson is full of watchful anticipation.

They've arrived at Hogwart's and must be sorted.

We were so surprised how easily he participated.

The Care of Magical Creatures class. Drew's turning them in to Puffskein's. 

The rest of the day he was using his wand to turn us all in to different animals.

Drew feeding the Puffskeins.

At first Drew  REFUSED to eat the dog food. He had to be convinced it wasn't yucky.

Waiting in the bathroom to take their turn in the very small hall, to peek in the very small closet, to practice fortune telling. Wish I'd gotten a pic of inside the closet. May have to recreate it.

Graduation

Now celebrating at Honeydukes, stepgranddaughter Brittny shows off her eatable bubbles.

*love you Brittny* I got so lucky getting her in my life.

Susana showing off the Tongue Splashers.
