Ethan and Ehlana:
Our sleepover last night – along with the barbeque dinner and evening entertainment of music and movies – was definitely the highlight of our day; and we’re not just reporting that because we really love the co-ed cuddle time with our best friends! ;^)
We are not, by the way, working on anything this year for the Fourth of July parade this year, and while we did think about it; we decided to take a break this year so that we could enjoy the parade as spectators. It won’t be that much longer before we’ll be drafted for parades every year; since we’ll definitely join the school band and teen praise team once we’re old-enough to do that. We’re busy enough anyway; and don’t want to add more to our schedules.
Moving along, the rain continued overnight and we’ve had more of it today, but there have been breaks of nicer weather too; and one of those sunnier parts of our day conveniently showed up in time for our baseball practices – which for Aiden and I was also a make-up ball game against the Barons that we won by a score of six-to-three. I won’t suggest that our team didn’t earn that win convincingly, but can also add that our game was shortened to the minimum innings because of time constraints; so the Barons might have done better if we’d been able to play a full game.
We also still had our pizzeria pizza picnic during the two rounds of practices, but we didn’t have much of a fan club for our game while most of our favorite girls were busy with Ehlana and Naomi’s practice or other plans tonight. The weekly picnic dinner and baseball were highlights of our day, but we had some play time with our friends during one of the earlier rain breaks; and on the less-fun side; we took care of some chores for Mom because we want all of the usual weekend work finished by Friday. That may require working in the rain now and then over the next few days, and isn’t much fun; but we’ll be happy to get most of the weekend off even if the work can be uncomfortable while wet.
Moving along again, we came home after the game and practices without our best friends; and we’re not doing another sleepover – though we might have had a camping night if not for more rain in the forecast. Bath or Jacuzzi time was next up on our to-do list; we did some work or studying in the office with Mom and Dad after that – including a Magi lesson; and we just finished up with a music practice. That’s pretty much all we have for tonight, and after another late night last night; we’re ready to get some sleep now. The next couple of days could end up being more work than play time for us, but we’ll let you know how that goes for us. It really is time to crash and nap now, though; so, until next time...
...this is Ethan and Ehlana Proctor; live from the hidden home of the Magi of the Light – and May the Magi Force be with you!
