Ron is staying at Hogwarts for Christmas with Harry so I say bye to him and head off with Ginny. After Christmas we will be using Crystal balls and I'm excited as I've read all the books I got on them.


Trelawney was right apparently. On Friday 16th October Lavender received a letter saying her pet rabbit has died. I have had no visions since the Fat Lady disappearing but Trelawney has told me I'm getting better apparently.


The Burrow

"Dad, do you still have those light bulbs?" I ask as I enter his shed


"Yes, the box over there, 4th shelf. Why?"


"I seen a picture in a book of them being used as flower vases. I want to make them"


"Sounds exciting, do you need anything else?"


"some chains and hooks so I can hang them"


He gets up and goes to a box as I'm collecting some bulbs making sure they're all the same size.


"Are these ok?" He asks


"Perfect, thank you" I smile and take them off him.


I get to my bedroom and I hang the long chain from one end of my window to the other. I empty the bulbs and fill them with water one by one and hang them to the chain. Once all 4 are filled I get flowers and add them. I look through my charms book and find the one to make them not die and stay fresh. Once I find the charm and I conjure it and smile at my creation. It looks so pretty.


Christmas Day

I wake up and go downstairs smiling as I see the presents under the tree.


"Merry Christmas Mum" I smile hugging her


"Merry Christmas" She smiles back


I help her finish making breakfast as everyone else starts to wake up and one by one come downstairs taking a seat at the table. Once everyone have had food we all gather in the living room for presents. In total I end up with a lot;

Mum & Dad - Lotus Flower incense holder that looks like it's in water, Crystal photo block with a picture of Mum and Dad

Ginny - Tie Dye Hippie style bag, incense sticks  that smells like cotton candy

Ron - Chocolate Frogs, Fizzing Wizbees, Sugar Quills, Set of Crystals 

Twins - Tarot Cards (Climbing them to be so called rubbish), Mini box of their home made products (Which I shall not be using), Moon and Stars fairy lights

Percy - A mixture of Muggle books and books related to Divination.

Bill - Baby Elephant which is holding up a piece of log which is a table,

Charlie - Hippie designed tapestry, Photo of him with baby dragons, Yin Yang necklace

Harry - Mixture of sweets, baubles filled with a tag on them; 1) Filled with feathers saying Never let go of your Dreams 2) Filled with colorful beads saying Be Happy 3) filled with glitter saying Stars can't shine without Darkness

Hermione - Pastel inks, Pastel tie dye note book, Feather with my name on it


I look around my room then all the gifts on/by my bed not knowing where to put them all. I get the baubles off Harry and place them on my desk along with the photo block. The table goes under the window by Wardrobe with the incense sticks, holder and the photo of Charlie on top of it. I manage to put the lights off the twins in the window on the chain with my bulb flowers, it looks so beautiful with the lights on them now. The crystals I dot around my dresser whilst all my sweets go in the food chest I keep just under my bed, the twins products can go way under the bed as I won't be needing them. I shove the books on the bookshelf along with the ink and notebook. I stick the feather on the wall above my desk in between all my photos and quotes.


I have no idea where to put everything else so for now they can just live in the corner for now. I make my way back downstairs smelling food, I wasn't that long putting things away was I? 


"Was I really that long in my room?" I ask as I take a seat next to Dad


"Yes, what have you been doing?"


"Putting my things away. Oh can you or the twins put the Tapestry off Charlie on the ceiling for me please as I can't reach"


"Me and Fred will, where to on the ceiling?" George asks


"Promise you won't do a prank?"


"We Promise" Fred smiles


"Ok, I want it on the far right"


"Above your book case and giant bean bags?" Fred asks


"The reading section, got it"  George adds and they both go upstairs, I hope they don't plot something


Food is ready shortly afterwards so we all dig into that then afterwards we have a family night playing a variety of games, the majority of the time being taken up by a muggle game called Monopoly. This game causes many arguments and goes on for hours, I'm pretty good at it luckily and always in the top 3 places of winners/richest.


Christmas this year have been great, it's great every year but I think this year has been the best.
