Harry Potter Party

The weekend after Comic Con, I had a Harry Potter Party for Abigail and Madeline to celebrate the fact that we had finished the whole series this summer. We invited my mom along since she is a big Potter fan as well. I posted about it on my other blog, Scones and Crackers. 

If you want to see what we did, check that out here. 

Scottish Festival

This year we attended the Scottish Festival at Thanksgiving Point for the first time. 

We didn't really know what to expect since this was our first time. 

We didn't do as much as I wanted but it was really hot and the girls weren't as excited about it as we were. 

Next year, we will know more of what to expect and will try to see more!

 

We did get a glimpse of some highland games going on. 

But most of our time was spent waiting for the opening ceremonies- the main reason we came. 

The opening ceremonies were really cool. 

You can see all my pictures from that on Scones and Crackers. 

Check it out here.

I'm so excited and.. you know the rest

A New Blog

Last week during my book club meeting our conversation turned to British actors and shows as it usually seems to do. My Aunt Maureen said that I should have a blog about British things. I have thought about doing this before but this was the spark that really got me going. 

I kept thinking about it that night and the next day and decided to do it!

I came up with a name and started prepping for the new blog. 

It is now up and running!

If you are at all interested in British movies, tv shows, books, music, celebrities, and the countries and culture of England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland head on over to
