Ethan:
The movie, cuddle time with Naomi, and
sleepover fun with our friends was great last night. Tai Chi by the river with Naomi and Aiden was
great too; and then we had a quick breakfast before our friends headed for home
or the bakery and Ehlana and I went to spend the rest of the morning at the lab
and archives. We had fun playing there;
we ended up going with a picnic lunch at the park with Naomi and Aiden; and
then played with our friends for most of the afternoon. A holiday weekend pre-cooking event was going
on at home by the time we got back; we had an easy dinner that the kids had out
on the dock while the parents multi-tasked the work and that meal; and then we
all went to Ehlana and Naomi’s ball practice.
Aiden and I kept the younger cousins entertained while the parents kept
working; we went for a cool-down swim after that; and then wrapped up our play
evening with ice cream treats before our cousins and friends went home.
Ehlana and I took Silkie for a walk while
seeing Naomi and Aiden home; did a Magi lesson with Mom while Dad got to work
in the office; and now we’re cleaned up and ready for bed. That’s all of the news I have for today, but
the countdown to the end of summer holidays seems to be speeding up now that
the work is getting done to be ready for our incoming guests this weekend. Cassie will be one of those guests, so that’s
going to be great and weird; though it might take until Thanksgiving or
Christmas for us to really notice the changes that are sure to happen with our
big sister as she makes this transition to worldly collegian!
That won’t be as dramatic as I’m implying,
but let’s wrap this up now; and I’ll go and get the extra sleep tonight while I
can.
Ethan – out!

Ehlana:
What Ethan said; Naomi and I had a really
good ball practice; and now I’m going to get some rest because I’m tired and
really just need to crash for the rest of the night.
This is Ehlana Proctor; coming to you live
from what is now my past!
