Harry Potter 6!

Drew and I were really blessed this summer with a house. We loved having some extra room, especially because we had an extra bedroom for guests to stay. One of our really close friends from Austin College came down to visit us, Kelly Stoker. She was my made of honor in my wedding. I love her alot and was SOO excited for her to come visit.

Her visit also happened to coincide with the newest Harry Potter movie, the Half-Blood Prince. I know, I know, I am a complete nerd who gets excited about Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings. I was pretty upset when they moved the release of this particular movie from last fall to this summer, so I have been waiting!

We decided to go see the movie while she was visiting, since we all really like the movies. Kelly and I have read all the books. Drew hasn't but I filled him in when I read them, largely because I knew he would not be able to get around to reading them - the poor guy has so much required reading for classes he has lossed the desire to read anything else (apart from the news).

We were going to go to the movie theatre in Temple, but found out the week before that it is super old, gross, funky smelling, and worst of all...over priced! So we took a day trip down to Round Rock. Kelly and I showed Drew around the IKEA there; he had never been before. :) Then, we waited in line for the movie to make sure we grabbed good seats...its the movie of the year people, come on! ;)

I really liked the film, although nothing compares to the books. We were all very appreciative of the quality and consistency of all the Harry Potter films. I cant wait for the next ones! It made me want to go read the books again.

After the movie we went to dinner at Chili's and got a chance to catch up with another of our AC friends...who also happens to be named Kelly. So we had a Kelly clan reunion. I love our friends!
