Tomton-Bishop Hill

December 5, 2015

Dalton was a Tomton at the Bishop Hill Market on December 5th. He has always wanted to be one after learning about them at school.  He even tried to sneak off with a pie from the bakery that was cooling on the windowsill...silly Tomton!!!!

Rubbing the beard in deep thought! LOL

Christmas Cookies with Friends & Pie in the Face!!!

I had a blast baking cookies with Hazel & Lexie. The boys wanted nothing to do with the baking part of it. Once we started decorating though, they came in running to help!

Then we played some Pie in the Face and then relaxed, ate pizza and watched some of the Grinch that Stole Christmas!!!!

Harry Potter Party

October 23 at the Hertz Household

The kids had a blast walking through Platform 9 3/4's into Diagon Alley, where they bought their robes, wands, Mauder's Maps, spell books, glasses, etc. Then they enjoyed sweets from Honeydukes! The sorting hat even visited and separated the kids into houses!  I think they had a blast. I know the adults did!

They had a blast and it was a great night with friends and family!
