Harry Potter Festival! Some of it, anyway

Grad school is both hard and awesome. I am enjoying it, but it seldom gives me time to blog.

Sean and I went to a Harry Potter festival in Jefferson, WI, about 45 minutes away in the beginning of October. Basically the whole town just does stuff to celebrate Harry Potter and people from all over go. It was super packed, though definitely aimed mostly at children, and it was really fun. Here's some pictures:
This was the entrance to the corn maze, which was aptly named Serpent's Maze 
Professor Sprout made an appearance (with a mandrake) at a greenhouse attraction
Some fun signs! 



This was at the town's library 

Some talking portraits!  
I will post the rest of the pictures on facebook but it was great, they'll include a giant sorting hat, a werewolf, the dragon in the basement of the bank, and more of Jefferson, WI. We had veggie dogs for lunch and went through the corn maze. The town was fairly small, there were buses to move people around but Sean and I walked it all because the town was small. There were shops too, and we bought a Hufflepuff pillow and a wand and it's official living room decor because we're adults and we can.  

It was fun and apparently this festival is an annual thing!
