Spring Break at Universal Studios

We decided to take a few day-trips over spring break, and the first one was to Universal Studios!

I got all decked out for Harry Potter World. Mom braided my hair the night before so it would be curly like Hermione's, I made a bracelet and painted my fingernails in my Hufflepuff house colors, black and yellow. And mom and I made potions necklaces. I also wore my time turner necklace and my Dumbledore's army necklace, and my Harry Potter spells shirt. I was READY!

We rode the studio tour first...

Then checked out the Mummy ride for the first time. Tommy is obsessed with Egyptian mythology these days so he was excited to take a picture with Isis and Anubis. But Anubis was kind of a joker, and kept dragging me in front of Tommy to block him in the picture. It was making me giggle. 

Then Anubis started messing with Tommy's hair...

And eventually he wound up wearing my headband. 

Here we are with some hieroglyphs at the entrance to the ride. We both liked it, even though it's a little scary. But we went back and rode it again at night, and I decided it's my new favorite ride!

After the Mummy, we ran into Frankenstein. He had fun spinning my time turner necklace...

And gave us a great pose for a picture.

Then it was time to put on our robes, get out our wands, and head to Harry Potter World!

The obligatory butter beer...

Tommy decided he might like it this time...

But his smile says not so much.

We always have a good time in Harry Potter world...

Riding Flight of the Hippogriff. Arms up, Tommy!

And watching the light show on the castle. 

A successful spring break so far!
