Last February, we celebrated Krish's 7th birthday at our new home Harry Potter style! Krish had started reading the Harry Potter series the year before in Kindergarten and fell in love with it just like his Daddy and I did back at A&M. In fact, Neil and I relived our fond Harry Potter memories and threw the best Harry Potter-themed birthday party for Krish that we could think of!
The party was complete with a Sorting Hat Ceremony (with House color-filled cupcakes), Honeydukes Sweet Shop, Olivander's Wand Shop--where the wand chooses the wizard and a [balloon] levitation lesson given by Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape's Potions Class, and a Quidditch tournament played using homemade Quidditch hoops! In attendance were, Harry, himself, Ron, Hagrid, Professor Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape, Parvati and Padma Patil, Professor Trelawney and all of Harry's classmates and friends!

The celebration was truly magical with Harry Potter theme music playing, potions brewing in Snape's dungeon, and Chocolate Frogs, Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans, Chocolate Golden Snitches and of course Butterbeer being enjoyed by all! It was definitely a day we will never forget and hopefully the most magical birthday for our sweet Krish! Now we can't wait to have a similar celebration when Arjun becomes a Harry Potter fan!
