Party Recap

My twin girls chose Harry Potter as the theme for their 10th birthday. This was really fun because we did science experiments as "potion" class and we also did a Divination class. The more time I spent on Pinterest the more the party grew! This is also a good theme if you're on a tight budget because all my decor was basically made of paper and Halloween items I already had on hand. Even the Quidditch game was inexpensive--made simply by drilling $1 hoops into pine stakes. It was a really fun and unique party for all involved.
