Harry Potter

So this past Saturday Harry Potter book 7, deathly Hallows, came out. I am proud to say my mother finished reading it in 8 hours on Saturday. I am a LOT slower reader than her and it will take me some time to get through it. But what makes me most happy is the Bryan is reading it. He has never sat down and read a book for fun. He reads slow like me and so that contributes to the reason he does not read very often. But since we listened to book 6 while on our trip to Canada, he got involved in the story line and is actually enjoying reading book 7. He even took it to work today and is going to read on his lunch hour! I am SO proud of him!!!! He may yet enjoy reading!!!

So I have a lot to get done the next couple of days. I am in charge of YW on Tuesday, which happens to be pioneer day, July 24th, so I have to get all the old fashion games set up together. I also have been pushed to get the picture cd done from youth conference done that was over a month ago. I am also wanting to read harry Potter and I have been asked to watch our home teaching families kids on Tuesday too...all 6 of them. I do not know if I can get everything done that I want to get done...and then on top of that, read my emails and blog....yeah what am I doing on the computer if I have so much to do! Well Just saying a little blirp...
Oh before I sign off, Bryan and Tess and I went and tried to take her senior pictures yesterday instead of having my mother spend over 100 dollars for them. I think they turned out pretty good. We are going to do a second session some time soon to see what it looks like with her hair curly.

OK now I am off!

You are very busy. I am excited to read the 7th Harry Potter book but I won't buy it until it comes out in paperback (that's what all my other ones are). Tess's pictures turned out cute. I can't believe she is a senior already!

The pictures did turn out good. And I can't wait to read HP- but I'll be borrowing it, so it could be a while.

You will love Harry Potter! I read it in four days :) It was a great book! I can't believe how grown-up Tessie is. I haven't seen her since she was 6 or 7! I hope that all is well with you!
