Fun & Last Minute Preparations
I took advantage of the nice long weekend (it was parent-teacher conference time at Hogwarts, so there were no classes from Thursday afternoon until today!) and had fun getting my spoilee's package ready. Olive sent Marty off to pick something up, but he'll be back before the 21st and when he gets here, I'm sending him right back off to Hermione Bagnold!

Happy Halloween!
The halls at Hogwarts were buzzing today! Halloween is such a fun holiday, especially for young wizards. When I was still at home, the most fun was seeing all of the Muggle children who came trick-or-treating... dressed as what they thought witches look like! Little did they know, a real witch had just given them a treat. Except for the few that might have gotten a trick. I may have *accidentally* dropped a handful of cockroach clusters into the big candy bowl!
I miss being home for Halloween, but Hogwarts was just as fun!

One Super-Tired Owl!
Last week there was one super-tired owl waiting for me. He must've been exhausted along the way, because the package looked as though it had been dropped a few times.
Even so, "it's what's inside that counts" and the goodies inside were still safe, sound and wonderful!
I was waiting on this post until I had pictures, but I might be using the wrong photo uploading spell because it's just not working for me. I'll come back and add them later.
Opening this package was really fun... it seemed like every time I looked inside, there was something else!
An owl of my very own (won't have to share with my sister anymore!), a cat, and a snake...not an approved Hogwarts pet, but that adds to the fun! Also, some knitting needles in house colors!
A Hogwarts trunk full of goodies!
Loads of goodies- candy, a rubber witchy ducky, Slytherin stitch markers, lots of cute halloween towels/pot holders, some halloween socks, "The Little Box of Socks"--full of sock patterns, and a "Toobie". I could not for the life of me figure out what this was! Good thing Grandma Grubblyplank included the business card so I could go check it out! Maybe I'm the last to know, but it's sock yarn that's already knitted up, so instead of knitting it from a ball, you just unknit it from this Toobie as you knit it into a sock. At least that's my understanding...please correct me if I'm wrong!
And I better start knitting a little faster... a lot of misc. yarn was added to my stash by my spoiler, Grandma Grubblyplank.
