First Clue - Game #6

I thought that I wouldn't make you search too hard for this clue :) As to which potion this will be it's anyone's guess.

Which potion contains Powdered Moonstone and Syrup of Hellebore?

So Much Updating To Do

And no time to do it! I still have to post about my visit with Kari (oooppps! Can't remember Potter name) and then my crazy week as I've prepared to leave for graduation. Will be updating my muggle Facebook through the weekend, so be sure to watch if you have access!

Munchkin Camp

Today I'm taking 2 of my kiddos to Munchkin Muggle Camp. Actually, they are far from munchkins. This will be their first church camp trip and I worked soooooo hard to get them there this year. Major fundraisers and the whole bit. We still have an upcoming fundraiser in August that will bring in the funds that some of us parents were short on.

Right now the munchkins are cleaning my car. I'll try to remember to take a pic and I'll update this post with their adorable camp faces later today :)

Game Two, Part Two

Okay, for my answer I got:

When in daubt (doubt?) go to the library. The link I chose was Hermione Granger because I figured if anyone was linked to the library it would be her, but no. I was wrong.

Game Two, Part One

In the second volume of the HP books by JK Rowling, The (#1)The Chamber of Secrets, we continue to learn the incredible adventures of Hogwarts student (#2) Harry Potter and his friends (#3) Ron Weasley and (#4) Hermione Granger. Belonging to the house of (#5) Gryffindor, they attend Defense Against the (#6) Dark Arts taught by Wizarding celebrity (#7) Gilderoy Lockhart, a none-too-bright fellow who cannot even handle pixies!

In The (#8) Chamber of Secrets, we also meet Dobby a (#9)house elf for the first time. Determined, Dobby seeks to sabotage the return of (#10) Harry Potter to Hogwarts and is pretty persistent but is unsuccessful. After a few weeks at school, the deceased Ravenclaw student who haunts the girls lavatory, also known as (#11) Moaning Myrtle, shows (#12) Harry Potter and (#13) Ron Weasley an old empty diary that dropped through her ghostly form out of thin air!

Many nifty things continue to happen for the next several months… we won’t go into all the juicy details right now… however, the ending is prime reading indeed!! (#14) Harry Potter finally kills Tom Riddle’s (a.k.a #15 Voldemort) sneaky diary (which we now know is a #16 Horcrux) and saves the sister of (#17) Ron Weasley, (#18) Ginny Weasley!!!

Oh! Of course, we must mention that the thickheaded (#19) Gilderoy Lockhart unintentionally erased his own memory, so he won’t be back for book three, The (#20) The Prisoner of Azkaban…

Busy Last Few Days

As campers get settled in there are only a few who have been able to participate. Still letters or warning must be sent out. I do so hate sending out those letters, but it must be done or else the other campers don't feel the benefit of having their camp mate around.

So, a few things that may help:

Pre-date a Post
No one even need know that you are gone!! Blogger allows you to pre-date your posts, so you could write a few short posts that will publish while you are away from your cabin on vacation or otherwise. Just choose the "Post Options" link at the bottom of the Create a Post box, change the date, and your all set!

Send a Hallmark E-card
You can predate a Hallmark e-card, so that your spoilee receives a little love while your away.

Communicate When You'll Be Away
I can not say this enough. If you think that you will be away for an extended period of time let someone know! Just a simple email letting us know that you'll be away from your computer for the week is fine. This way we will not expect you to post during that week. Email your Cabin Counselor, your spoilee, and spoiler to let them know.

I hate to drop anyone from the swap, but I also need to make sure that others do not feel neglected.
