Time for another birthday in this house. Since it involves a 9 year old boy... HARRY POTTER IS THE THEME :) It was fun to see Ethan enjoy his friend party. I don't know what is funner as a parent to watch how excited he got in the days leading up to it or the look of pure happiness on his face the whole time of his party. :)

Once the boys got here they were told they would attend three Hogwarts classes.
First, Potions class where they made slime. Easy and fun.




Second, Defense Against The Dark Arts Missiles. The boys loved this. Just take an empty film canister fill it a little with water, put 1/4 of an alka seltzer tablet in. Put lid on and watch it shoot up in the air. What boy wouldn't like that.

Third, Care of Magical Creatures where we had a dragon egg relay.


Then we had magic wands "the wand chooses you". Hilarious because we had Jim upstairs talking through a speaker on our phone.

Once they all had their wands they had to chant Alohomora for him to open his gifts.
Take home gifts were chocolate frogs, harry potter cards and of course the wand and slime.
