I'm not sure how much of this was serious and how much you were 
joking about, but since it's 1 am and I'm sitting at my desk working 
(and awake only because of the existence of coffee), I'll comment 
anyway.

I like the trio all ending up back at Hogwarts, hopefully following 
(for Harry) a stint as an Auror.  Draco living in Hagrid's old hut is 
amusing, and not something I would have thought of.  I'm not sure it 
will happen, but I have to think that a comparably humiliating future 
lies ahead of him, whatever that future may be.

The only part of this that I take serious issue with is Harry / Cho.  
I agree that it's possible they'll end up together, but based on what 
we know now, I doubt it.  I'm still cheering for H/Hr, but if that 
can't happen then I think Ginny and Luna are both more likely than 
Cho as Harry's future spouse (although the idea of Harry/Luna doesn't 
quite work for me, and I'm not even sure why...)  We'll see what 
happens with Cho; she may still have a role to play in the story, but 
right now I don't think her romantic future with Harry looks all that 
bright.
