My sweet colleagues at the university decided to throw me a baby shower last week, and I have to tell you, it was pretty magical.
It was Harry Potter themed!
The Harry Potter books are a treasured favorite. You can read about how me and Jess came to love Rowling's world of wizardry here. The theme of the shower was a total surprise, but it just goes to show how well my coworkers have come to know me!
Don't you just love these golden chocolate snitches...
The Ollivander pretzel wands...
And the polyjuice potion punch...?
My husband was able to join us for the party on his lunch break. We were so overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity of everyone who came out to help us celebrate.
And I think we've decided on a school for the little one... ( ;
