Owls Away!

I'm ready to send off the owl with my HSS3 partners package today. It will have to fly overseas so I chose a particularly strong one. I sure hope my Slytherin pal likes everything!

Gryffindor House Final Quiz HSKS4

Here are my answers for the final house quiz:
-Grimmauld Place
-Luna Lovegood
-Dolores Umbridge
-Occlumency
-Grawp
-Thestrals
-Extendable Ears
-Scrimgeour
-Prophecy
-Saint Mungos
-Centaur
-Skiving Snackbox
-Room of Requirement
-Dumbledores Army

That was a tricky one, good thing Gryffindors are rather clever! Number three was particularly difficult due to a spelling error, but it all worked out. I can't believe it's nearly the end of term. I bet the owls really start flying now!

The Owl Made It!

My Ravenclaw (HSKS4) partner has her owl! She says she likes everything I sent her, even the special Luna-esque stitch markers. There's nothing better than knowing that your partner likes what you sent to them :)

In HSS3 news... My socks are all finished. I have to check through my collection of treats for my Slytherin pal, but I'm pretty sure that I'm ready to send her package by owl post too. I wonder what types of owls do overseas deliveries?

Owl Post- for real!

I sent these owls off to my HSKS4 partner yesterday afternoon. They don't have too far to fly so they should be there by the end of the week or sooner. I can't wait until she gets it, I hope she likes everything!

I have everything I need to pack up my HSKS4 pals package. Yay! I'll be packing it up today or maybe tomorrow. I sure hope she likes everything.
