The Big Reveal!

So my husband and I decided we were going to surprise his 8 year old little sister by taking her to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter for her Birthday in November . She may be the only 8 year old girl in the world that would pick Hogwarts,over   Cinderella's Castle. We decided to surprise her and tell her we are going... But we didn't tell her the right date, so later she will get yet another surprise when we tell her we are actually going on November 4th instead of December 20th!

 For our grand surprise we wrote a letter from Luna Lovegood (her absolute favorite Harry Potter Character) and sent her on a bit of a scavenger hunt that ended at her big surprise, delivered by owl of course. 

The trail leading to it is "galleons" (wizard money) we are going to give her more ways to earn some leading up to the trip, and once we get there she can redeem them for souvenirs. 

We attached some tags to the balloons with cute little sayings like "accio vacation" and "Wingardium Leviosa."

When she opened the box more balloons and glitter flew out, along with her Hogwarts Acceptance Letter!

Check back soon for more details on the Hogwarts acceptance letter, and supply list.

It was so precious. She just kept touching the Hogwarts Crest like is this really happening!!!!
