As most Harry Potter fans, Kendra wanted to spend the evening of July 15th at a Harry Potter party. Mingling with other Muggles, we found ourselves at Borders Bookstore in Mesa awaiting the midnight selling of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. She dusted off her wellused, homemade Hermione costume and we set out for a night of Potter.
There were crafts to do, such as making Wizard hats.

Spells to cast

Harry Potter Trivia

Fake Tattoos

The balloon makers got a little loopy as the evening drew late,
and started adding assorted whatnots to the standard balloon Hedwigs.


As midnight neared there were few unclaimed feet of floor space to be had.
These girls chose to hide from the crowd under a table.


This is the view from under the table.

"I've got a golden ticket".
Not really, but I do have ticket #362.


The books are here!!!

I got a box!

Countdown to midnight!!
FIVE!!
FOUR!!
THREE!!!
TWO!!!

ONE!!!!

So now it is off to home, to spend the next four days reading!!!


Thanks to Borders - Mesa for making this a most interesting evening.
