5 year old Harry and 3 year old Anastasia were excited, they were going on vacation, with their friends- The Malfoy's- Lucius and Narcissa, and their two kids, Draco and Lydia, the Weasley's- Molly and Arthur, and their eight kids, Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred, George, Ron, Ginny, and Hailee, the Tonks's- Andromeda and Ted and their daughters Nymphadora and Stephanie, the Chase's- Fredrick and Susan and their three kids, Annabeth, Malcolm, and Bobby, the Grace's- Beryl and her two kids, Thalia and Jason, the McLean's, Tristian and his daughter Piper, and the Jackson's- Sally and her two kids, Zoelle and Percy.

Severus Snape was running around trying to make sure they had everything for vacation. He was mentally running through a check list.

Swimsuits- check

Sunscreen- check

Books- check

The list went on until Severus was sure he had everything. He had four suitcases, he was more than prepared.

"Harry! Annie! Time to go!" Severus called up to the children, who came bounding down the stairs. He laughed to himself as he took in their appearances. Harry had on a pair of swim trunks with his favorite sweatshirt on over it. Anastasia had on her pink tutu style skirt with an orange shirt. Her hair was in a messy ponytail. At least she tried.

Severus got everything in the car, and made sure Harry and Anastasia were secure in their care seats, before taking off to the train station.

He was the third to get there. The Chases and the Malfoys were already there. The adults greeted each other, and the kids ran to catch up. The Tonkses, McLeans and Graces were almost right behind Severus, and about five minutes later the Jacksons showed up. They got on the train, to reserve their car- knowing the Weasleys would just make it. And just make it they did.

The kids all rush toward the back of the car and start playing a muggle game- Hide and Seek.

"Interesting outfit Anastasia has there, Sev." Sally says when the adults all get adjusted into seat.

"I'd say the same about Zoelle." Severus replied, eyeing the 3 year old who was wearing a purple skirt and yellow shirt.

"I think Lydia has them all beat though." Narcissa said. Everyone agreed when the saw the 3 year old in a bright blue skirt, orange leggings, and a yellow shirt.

"Why do we let them do this to themselves?" Severus asked, rhetorically.

"They'd throw a fit otherwise." Molly said. She'd know with eight kids between 3-8.

Severus was actually surprised at the amount of kids there were, enough to fill a Hogwarts class, and the were all similar in age. The oldest were 8, they were twins Bill and Charlie Weasley, Thalia Grace, and Malcolm Chase, at seven were Percy Weasley, Nymphadora Tonks, Piper McLean, and Jason Grace, at six were twins Fred and George Weasley, Percy Jackson, Stephanie Tonks, at five were Ron Weasley, Harry Potter-Snape, Annabeth Chase, and Draco Malfoy, at four was Zoelle Jackson, and at three were twins Ginny and Hailee Weasley, Anastasia Potter-Snape, and Lydia Malfoy. It is going to be scary when they all get in Hogwarts.

Severus was glad his kids had friends, true friends who cared for his kids.

They finally arrived to the train station, got off the train, grabbed their bags, and walked the quarter of a mile to the beach hotel where they were staying for vacation. They rented half of one of the floors.

Severus grabbed Anastasia's and Harry's hands and led them to their rooms. He was surprised how each of them looked like their parents. Anastasia looked just like Lily, except the eyes, she had James's eyes. Harry looked like James and had Lily's eyes.

Once they got to the room, they dropped their stuff off, and went to the beach. Ron, Ginny, and Hailee joined them, along with Arthur.

The kids ran ahead, and started building a sand castle. Well, trying to build a sand castle. It was then that Hailee saw a girl, around their age, olaying by herself. Hailee grabbed Anastasia wrist, and pulled her up.

"Annie, let's go see if she wanna to pway wit us!" Hailee exclaimed.

"Ok!"

"Hi, do you wanna pway wit us?" Hailee asked.

The bushy haired girl looked overjoyed. "Yes. I'm Hermione."

"I'm Annie, and this is Hailee, and Won, and Hawwy, and Ginny."

They were a bit more successful building the castle. Annabeth and Malcolm joined them q few minutes later, and the castle really looked good for a bunch of little kids.
