potter

last night i finally went and saw harry potter!!! and it was the best one yet!!!! it is tradition that every year i go with my mom so i had to anxiously wait until she got back from her trip to spain, which by the way she had an incredible time!

i have read every harry potter book and seen every movie. i love this story and it doesn't help that i LOVE  magic and fantasy stories.in 1998 i remember the first time i heard about harry potter...all thanks to my mom! she was in a book club and they read the first book. once in a while the group would meet at a restaurant to discuss a book and this time they were meeting at a really yummy french restaurant so my mom invited me and i gladly accepted her offer. i never heard of the book nor did i even know what it was about so when everyone started talking about wizards, wands and muggles my ears perked up. everyone recommended that i read the book so i did and i was completely and utterly hooked!!!!!! i ripped though the pages staying up way way to late and often with a flash light in hand. when one book ended it felt like an eternity till the next book came out. this story has become so real to me that i refuse to believe that it isn't...we all need a bit of magic and fantasy in our lives even if it is imaginary :)

i hope you all have a fantastic weekend! i can't wait to tell you all about our tandem experience. don't forget to enter my giveaway if you haven't already it ends on monday!!!!
