***Heirs of the Magi News Flash!*** The annual fall festival is now behind us, and Cassie and Michael are heading out on their fall trip - this time to the South Pacific! They'll miss out on the Halloween fun at home and the rest of the high school football season, but all of that time in tropical paradises will likely be worth those little sacrifices! 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. Thank-you to everyone enjoying our stories from Witch Falls as we have passed five-hundred thousand views!

Cassie's Journal - August 3, 2012

We’ve had another first today – at least for Rowen, Dawn, Jillian, and me.

Our day at Quarry Lake was a bit more special because we got to ride our bikes there and back on our own. Chris, Martin, Jonathan, and their friends all went too, but they thankfully rode on ahead without us so that we could enjoy the ride without the brotherly or cousin hassles. Mom, Alicia, and the twins came out for a few hours too, but that was closer to lunchtime; they brought a picnic for all of us; and they went home again by three o’clock.

Though we didn’t have official supervision while we were at Quarry Lake, between Mom’s visit, and the couple of hours that Violet and Chrissy spent there with Dillon, Jake, and Stephanie while they were on their afternoon break from the Inn, we really weren’t there for all that long on our own. It was still exciting to have that sense of freedom, though, and we really had a great day. The boys and their friends did too, but we didn’t hang around with them except when we all had lunch with Mom, Alicia, Ethan, and Ehlana.

We were even more fired up when Mom and Aunt Leanne advised us that it was girls’ night at Uncle Adam and Aunt Leanne’s house; and that we were doing a dinner and a movie-makeover. The guys were supposedly doing a guys night at our house, but we found out after getting home again that Chris, Martin, and Jonathan ended up doing another gaming night with their friends in the lounge while Dad, Uncle Adam, Grandpa, and Ethan did the post-dinner guys night movie without the three teens.

The gaming is still going on in the lounge as I write this, but I don’t think that the noise will keep me awake tonight after two long bike rides, and lot of sun and fun, and a great few hours with Mom, Aunt Leanne, Grandma, and the rest of the girls. Until next time...
