And heres the prize for EVERYONE that entered:

Just Copy and Paste it onto your blog!

A Wizard's Easter

"WAKE UP! ITS EASTER!!!" My little sister Lily yelled as she threw open my bedroom door.
"Wake up Mione! Its..."
"Yes I know, Easter." I said, putting on my glasses.
Lily giggled as she went running to my twin brother Ron's connecting bedroom.
"ARGH! LILY GET OFF!" Ron yelp sounded throughout 12 Grimmulad Place. I pulled on my bathrobe and slippers, as Ron came in giving Lily a piggyback.
"Would you two ladies like a brave, handsome, smart, young man to escort you to the kitchen?" He said, offering me and Lily his arm.
"Oooo is Justin Bieber here? I joked, looking around exaggeratedly.
"Wheres Justin Bieber?" Dad asked when we came into the kitchen.
"Nowhere, silly Daddy!" Lily laughed climbing into Mum's lap.
"Good Morning sweetie. Help yourselves to what ever is on the table!" Mum pointed at the stack of Cauldron Cakes on the table.
30 Minutes Later
I looked around Uncle Ron and Aunt Hermione's backyard, searching for Wizard Easter Eggs. Now, Wizard Easter Eggs aren't like those pathetic plastic Muggle ones full of bits of candy. Wizard Eggs have special charms on them to be able to fit ANYTHING you want inside! From HUGE chocolate slabs to Wizarding board games!
"You found anything yet?" I called to my favorite cousin LuLu,
"No, you?"
"Just one." I spotted something glimmering at the far end of the garden. I raced toward and and discovered a pretty sky blue egg partly buried in a gnome hole. A little gnome was attempting to pull it into his hole without anyone seeing him. I yanked the egg out of his dirty little hands, picked him up, spun him around and threw him over the garden fence thinking "Aunt Hermione will thank me for that!"
1 Hour Later...
12... 13... 14... 15! I had found fifteen eggs! It was better than last year when I had only found 8.
LuLu and I found a secluded part of the garden where we could open our eggs without the boy cousins and brothers trying to steal them.
LuLu and I opened our first egg together.
"Wow!"
"Woah!"
It was incredible......

What Do YOU think LuLu and I found inside that Egg? Leave me a comment and the person with the most correct answer gets a PRIZE!! Submit your comments by Wednesday!

Hermione Potter

First day back at Hogwarts

Hey everyone! Hogwarts just had a week long Spring Break and heres how my first day back went......

I awoke to the sounds of birds chirping and a breeze rusting the trees of the Forbidden Forest. I quickly pulled the curtains of my four poster bed to find that all the other Gryffindor third-year girls -Sarah, LuLu, Cathy Wood and Freya Finnegan- were already up and dressed.

"'Bout time you got up Mione!" My best friend Sarah Longbottom said as her pulled on her cloak. I laughed and went over to my trunk. On top was a note from a little house-elf I know who works in the Kitchens named, Curly. "Welcome back Miss Hermione! Curly was wondering if Miss Hermione and her friends would like to come and visit Curly in the Kitchens Miss? If Miss can, leave a note on your plate after breakfast so that Curly can find it." 

I dressed quickly, stuffed the note in my pocket, swung my bag over my shoulder, and left the room with Sarah. "Come on. Ron and Scorpius are probably going to eat everything on the Gryffindor table before we get there." As we raced down the forth flight of stair, Pevees the pranking sort-of-ghost, started to throw dungbombs at us singing: "Potty needs to go pee! Longbottom needs to pee! Everybody in Hogwarts needs to peewee!" We managed to dodge Peeves by running straight though the Slytherin ghost the Bloody Baron. "OH YUCK!" Sarah squealed as we felt as if we had gone through a ice-cold shower. "Oh sorry so Bloodyness! I was only...." 

That was the last we heard of Peeves, as we yanked open the door of the Great Hall, and escaped inside. 

"About time you two showed up!" Our other best friend Scorpius Malfoy grinned as we plopped down next to him and my twin brother Ron. Sarah glared at him, as she spread butter on her toast. 

"What class you two have next?" Ron asked. "Double Divination, bladerdash." I said glancing at my scedule. "Us too." He said gesturing at Scorpius, who was know bickering with Sarah over the importance of correct wand posture. 

At Divination........

I climbed up the ladder into Professor Trelaweny's sticky, hot classroom about an hour later.
"Welcome, my dears!" Trelaweny's hoarse voice spoke from the shadows, as we settled into puffs, and armchairs around the circular tables, that today held beautiful models of the solar systems. 
"Today, we shall be consulting the Heavens and Stars for glimpses into your futures. Now, Miss Potter would you be ever so kind as to come up here and help me demonstrate?" 
I walked to the front of the room where a bigger model of the solar system stood on Trelaweny's desk. 
"Now dear, I would like you to point your wand at the model and say Dies
Natalis" 
"Er.. Okay... Dies Natalis." 
The plants lit up and began spinning, and after about fifteen seconds they came to a halt..... And then Trelaweny let out a scream!
"OH DEAR! Poor, poor unfortunate dear!" 
'Well this should be good." I thought as Trelaweny steadied herself on her desk. 
"Poor child, the position of the planets, stars, and moons at the moment of your birth, signify that you shall soon suffer a most terrible death!" 
"Oh please. How many times have you told my dad that?" The words slipped out before I could stop myself. 
Many people in the room gasped at my boldness, you see, I'm kinda the quiet girl who hates attention, but is really outgoing among people I know. 
"Detention Miss Potter, My room 7:00..." 
"But Professor, thats Quidditch..."
"Silence, you are disturbing the Aura of the room! Class, you are all dismissed early, I have a rather bad headache." 
As my friends and I walked back to the Gryffindor common room, Ron congratulated me. 
"You sounded just like Aunt Hermione in Dad's biography!" 
"Shut up Ronald" I hissed
"Oh yea and who's gonna stop me?" 
"LEVICORPUS!" I cried pointing my wand at him in frustration and anger. 
Ron let out a cry of surprise as the spell magically flipped him upside down....


Well its been about an hour, I should probably go get Ron down! 
I'll post about my Detention with Trewlaney tomorrow (after it happens!)

A Sorting Hat Memory

Hello Everyone!
This is the memory of the day I came to Hogwarts and the Sorting Ceremony.

I clutched my best friend Sarah Longbottom's hand, as we stood before a elderly Scottish witch, along with all the other new first years at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. 
"Welcome students, to Hogwarts, where you shall begin you magical education. When you walk through these doors you shall be Sorted in your Houses. While you stay at Hogwarts your House will be like your family, but remember.... There are no bad Houses, only bad wizards."
I knew Professor McGonagall was referring to Lord Voldemort - woops I mean You-Know-Who- who was a Slytherin whilst at Hogwarts, but everyone knows that ALL Dark Wizards were in Slytherin, so I guess there is such a thing as a bad (or at least a unlucky) HOuse. 
Professor McGonagall lead us through two HUGE wooden doors into the Great Hall. 
I looked up at the enchanted ceiling, which was glimmering with stars (it shows the sky above the roof kind of like a magical skylight.

We came to a halt in front of a three legged stool at the front of the Great Hall. A very old, battered wizarding hat sat apron it. 

Suddenly a rip in the Hat opened its mouth and began to sing:

Oh,you may not think I'm pretty,
But don't judge on what you see,
I'll eat myself if you can find
A smarter hat than me.
You can keep your bowlers black,
Your tops hats sleek and tall,
For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat
And I can cap them all.
There's nothing hidden in your head
The Sorting Hat can't see,
So try me on and I will tell you
Where you ought to be.
Y ou might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell brave of heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry
Set Gryffindors apart;
You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true
And unafraid of toil;
Or yet wise old Ravenclaw,
If you've a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind;
Or perhaps in Slytherin
You'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folk use any means
To achive their ends.
So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And you won't get in a flap!
You're safe in my hands(though I have none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!! *

The Great Hall erupted in cheers as the Hat bowed to each of the professors, and sat very still. 

"When I call your name, please come up and you shall be Sorted into your Houses......" Professor McGonagall said unrolling a long piece of parchment.

"Alberts, Victoria." 

A tall blond girl sat on the stool and placed the Hat on her head. There was a pause and then.. 

"RAVENCLAW!" The Hat yelled, as the people at a table on the left cheered.

"Avery, Harold." 

"SLYTHERIN!" The Slytherins did not look very nice, I thought as smug looking Harold Avery sat down. 

"Bieber, Justin." 

"GRYFFINDOR!" The table on the right exploded with cheers as Justin sat down next to my part vela cousin Victorie. 

"Bhwar, Alexandra." 

"HUFFLEPUFF!"

"Daniel, Austin."

"GRYFFINDOR."

"Dallas, Dehlla" 

"RAVENCLAW!"

"Longbottom, Sarah." 'Oh dear', I thought as I watched the Hat fall  past her ears..... 

"GRYFFINDOR!" 

"YES!" I cried, as Sarah sat down next to Justin looking pale, but pleased.

More and more names went by until they came to the Ms

"Malfoy, Scorpius." Sarah, and I crossed our fingers for our best friend as McGonagall placed the Hat on his white-blond head. After about a full minute the Hat screamed.......

"GRYFFINDOR!" I jumped up and down squealing with excitement, even though we knew Scorpius would get a Howler (a yelling letter) from his father the next day, we couldn't help but be thrilled that he wasn't a Slytherin. 

I waited and waited until finally....

"Potter, Hermione." Professor McGonagall gave a little involuntary smile when she came to my name, but no one noticed as the Great Hall was buzzing with whispers. 

"Potter?"

"As in Harry Potter?"

"Yes, didn't you know he had older twins that weren't in his biography?" 

"I can't believe it!"

"The Harry Potter's kids!"

As the hat slid over my eyes I saw that a lot of people where watching me intensely. 

"Well, well, well. We've got a Potter haven't we?" I small voice said coming from the Hat. 

"Never fear. I know exactly where to put you. 

"GRYFFINDOR!"

The Gryffindor Table cheered sooooo loud that my left ear wasn't the same for a week. 

"Potter, Ron."

 I prayed harder than I had ever prayed in my life that Ron would be in Gryffindor with me. 

But my anxiety didn't last long because about a second later the Hat cried

"GRYFFINDOR!" 

I was thrilled as I watched my dad's godson Teddy shake Ron's hand as he sat down. 

By now the Gryffindors had taken up a chant of: 

"We got the Potters! We got the Potters! We got the Potters!"

Now that my worries where over I began to focus on the golden dinner plates in front of me. 

'How is the food getting here?" I wondered as 'Watersprout, Alice." became a Slytherin. 

Finally the last boy ('Zabini, Darius') was sorted into Slytherin.

"Now, I know you are all hungry, so announcements can wait for later. Eat. Drink. And be merry." 

I suddenly noticed that the plates had been filled with more food, than I had ever seen in my life (and that is saying something coming from a Potter/Weasley household)!

"I'm going to love it here." I thought as the first course was replaced with desert!
