Some favorite grandparents will be away for adventures in Arizona or elsewhere too, but our favorite Magi staying at home are sure to have a lot of fun anyway. We'll have all of the adventure highlights from home and away right here for you each day; so... ...Visit Witch Falls often to keep up with all of our latest stories; and Happy Reading! P.S.

Cassie's Journal - June 24, 2012

The top talk at church today was about Grandpa Grant and Eleanor’s upcoming wedding this coming Saturday; with a lot of teasing aimed at Grandpa Grant for marrying a twenty-nine year old.

Today was a fairly normal, post-city week work day for Dad, so other than going to church; he mostly stayed in the office all day. Rowen and I spent a lot of time outside, though it was probably the hottest day of the year so far. We went swimming a lot; needed several ice cream breaks; and waited until after dinner to play at the park. We’re camping again tonight, and so are Patrick and Scott. The heat has slowed them down a bit, or they’re just tired out from their adventures in annoying late last night. Whatever the reason, Rowen and I are glad for the break; and we’ve even managed to have fun with the boys earlier when we all went for a swim, and then played a couple of games in the back yard.

Rowen and I played in the river with Violet, Ethan, and Ehlana for a while this afternoon too, but the twins weren’t outside in the heat for long, and Violet was splitting the rest of her afternoon between a little work in the office, hanging out with Mom (and probably doing a lesson), and meeting up with Dillon whenever he was taking his breaks at the Inn. We saw Rebecca and Jenny during one of our ice cream runs to the emporium, and I’m really glad that I wasn’t working in the kitchen at the Inn today. From how wrung-out they looked, the air conditioning probably wasn’t quite keeping up with the temperature outside today.

Anyway, since moving into the tent for the night, Rowen and I have been listening to music and talking. She fell asleep about twenty minutes ago, and I’ve been doing my nightly computer routine since then. We’re about to start the last week of June, and while we don’t really have anything special planned, the weather forecast is mostly for more hot and sunny; and I’m sure that we’ll manage to fill week two of our summer holidays with fun and excitement.

I’ve had enough of both for tonight, though, so...
