Triwizard Tournament

My family is awesome. 

We all loooove Harry Potter. 

About 4 years ago I started throwing Harry Potter Extraveganzas to encourage my cousins to read the books. It started out as a trivia competition. They were divided into houses, everyone dressed up, and it was a BLAST. 

Every year since then we have held a "Harry Potter Day"

Its been a lot of fun for me because I see my younger siblings and cousins getting excited about reading Harry Potter. 

This year was the 4th year, so naturally, we had a Triwizard Tournament

It was a little more low key than years past, but it was still a huge success:

Jazzy was sorted into Ravenclaw (The best house):


There was games for each of the tasks, and of coarse, butterbeer.

The winner of the Tournament: 

RAVENCLAW! (Obviously!)

Dear Diary,

A lot has happened since I wrote last. Its been a really great couple of weeks, but I can't believe that November is over. Where did the time go? 

Here are some exciting highlights of the last few weeks: 

First of all, this had me giggling for about 3 minutes straight. 

This was inspirational:

I just love funny people: 

Sooooo found Jef with one f on Tinder.... NBD 

This is how I felt about 3 weeks ago. It was a crazy busy weeks. 

3 tests, 2 large papers and about 102840983 small assignments all due the same week.

There has never been a truer meme:

The little Apple of my eye got married before thanksgiving. I am so happy for her! 

She was the silliest bride ever. Love this girl. 

New life motto: 

Kaylie came to spend a the night last week. 

It was great because we finally are old enough to tell ourselves to go to bed on time

She forgot a blanket, and slept in my Harry Potter snuggie

when she woke up, she exclaimed :

"On no! Did I fall asleep in my robes again?"

And now for the necklace, THIS neckalce. 

When I first saw it my heart sang. 

Spending last Christmas in Costa Rica it didn't really feel like Christmas at all!

It was warm! I didn't have my family! 

So obviously I have to make up for it this year with double the Christmas cheer.

Hense, why I NEEDED this necklace

suuuuure, kinda pricey for a necklace you can only wear one time a year,

but I had DOUBLE the Christmas cheer to make up for.

Brianne, Lauren and Claudia wouldnt let me get it (rude).

But I went back a couple of days later and Kaylie gave me premission. SO THERE. 

School is fine, work is fine, boys are... fine.

Love, Lexi

Not my last selfie.

Accidental Snapchat saves

Let's be honest, these were just too funny to keep to myself:
