I have so enjoyed reading all the HP books. and I have loved watching the movies. we have talked about going to see the last movie as a family. well, two of the kids couldn't wait. sigh.....
LOL.... it was really hard for me to wait. anyway, when you have a large family it is hard to just get them together! so Jenn and I brainstormed on what to fix. Jenn fixed a roasted chicken and roasted veggies. so very good. I fixed butter beer - I loved it. it was basically
gingerale, cream soda and butterscotch syrup. very good.
I also fixed kale quills. actually these were really good. I left the leftovers on the counter and the cats loved the kale too!
LOL....
also fixed pumpkin juice.
hmmmmm..... not very good. nobody like it!
LOL......
I had
dumbledore's lemon treats - just lemon drops. owl pellets - chocolate covered peanuts. and
jellie bellies -
Bernie botts all flavored beans! went to cost plus to find the
jellie beans and what did I find? some
jellie beans that showed a pic on the back of the box. it showed ever color that was in the box. there were 2 blacks - skunk scent and licorice. a gold one - pencil shavings and banana. yellow - rotten egg and buttered
popcorn. blue - toothpaste and berry blue. brown - canned dog food and chocolate pudding. orange - barf and peach. green - booger and juicy pear golden yellow - moldy cheese
and caramel corn. white - baby wipes and
coconut. and red - centipede and strawberry jam. let me tell you. they were true to the description!!!!!!
we played a game. you picked one jelly bean. I was ready with the camera. you popped in your mouth and I took a pic. we were laughing so hard. I can tell you what pencil shavings and canned dog food taste like!!!!!
Me YUCK!
Lexi YUCK!

lots more pics, but I thought this was enough! after dinner we went to the movie and watch the last movie. when it was over I looked at
Bruce and he was smiling and said: "It' over!!!!!" and I was crying and said "it's over!"

Now, one of my favorites things to do with gunner is watch madagascar. especially when the music comes on "I like to move it, move it!" we dance and laugh! I found a music birthday card with that music. I almost wore it out listening to it. it just makes me smile. well, it makes gunner smile too. Melissa said all the way home he sang "I like to move it, move it!"
while he was eating his cake and ice cream, he kept droping stuff of his fork. Mom said, lean over you plate. so then he leaned over the plate! LOL.....
Hi great grandma gave him "monies"! so excited!
we all had a great time! Love you gunner man!
