In June Amy and I had plans to meet up for the first time and chill out, do some knitting and get to know each other in real life. I knew she was a big Harry Potter fan, so I knew that we would probably geek out and talk about that, pretty much the whole time.. haha! I also knew that she doesn't have many real-life friends that are as fanatical as we are- so I invited two of my dear friends to come meet her, dress up, have butter beer and watch a film in the evening!
Anna came as Madam Rosmerta, Saara as Professor Minerva McGongall and Amy as Luna Lovegood.
Here are some of the photos from our little shoot! We totally got in character- it was so much fun and hillarious! We used paintbrushes and knitting needles as wands, in case you were wondering!(I think Amy looks pretty badass with a wand! Death Eaters, beware!)
"Turn this water into rum!"
... haha. we were obviously taking it VERY seriously... :] Saara was so good that I was actually afraid she might take points from Gryffindor at one point!
(I always thought that Molly might've had a good relationship with the lovely barmaid- I can just imagine Arthur convincing Rosmerta to give her some mulled mead for xmas. aw!)
(Order of the Phoenix girls...)
I dressed up as Molly Weasley, which wasn't hard to do, honestly.. haha! I'll share my 'outfit post' in a few days.
Is anyone dressing up for the final film? Hosting a Harry Potter party?? It's all good fun. :]
This was THE best day! haha :D
