We.can't.wait!!

Harry Potter has come to Chicago--Sorting Hat and all!

Sam and I are HUGE Harry Potter fans, as is my daughter in law, Beth. We're going to go to the HP exhibit after school is out in June.

You can read all about it at the link, but here's a short list of some attractions:

1. Triwizard Tournament gear

2. Wands

3. The Marauder's Map

4. Voldemort's robes

5. Hermione's Time Turner

6. Remus Lupin's shabby robes

7. Hagrid's hut

8. Quidditch

9. The Great Hall

I'm looking forward to seeing EVERYTHING, but I especially want to see the Marauder's Map (the calligrapher in me is fascinated with that map. . .) and I hope, hope, hope the Howler that Mrs. Weasley sent Ron in the first movie is somewhere in the Great Hall.  Some other things I'd like to see:  the Pensieve, Mr. Weasley's car, Dumbledore's office, the Gryffyndor Common Room, the Fat Lady. . .

FELLOW POTTER FANS, WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE?  Speaking of seeing, have you seen the trailer yet?

I know I should say that I'm happy for you, but really deep down inside...I'm JEALOUS. How awesome is that?! From our Harry Potter obsessed family to yours... :)

I kind of want to see the Marauder's Map - and maybe Hagrid's hut. I'm catching up on Harry, as I didn't read any of the books while they were first coming out, just because it was a lot of hype and I had no patience. However, I have read books 2-3 so far, and just started book 4 (the Goblet of Fire), with book 5 (from the library) waiting patiently for me to finish. I actually own book 6, but I didn't want to read it until 7 came out, so that I didn't have to wait to find out what happened to anyone. I have a feeling I will soon own all 7.....
