Heirs of the Magi News Flash!

***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 - February 20, 2015



Michael is helping out at the Inn again tonight, and Rowen and Tim didn’t need a third teen to keep entertained tonight; so I stayed home and did the dinner and movie night thing with my family while my friends were busy.

That’s been fun, and I especially loved getting a chance to hear about Uncle Mark and Aunt Grace’s trip to Seattle with Caleb; along with spending the time with my uncles, aunts, and cousins.  We did a pot-luck dinner; our movie was toddler-rated and a Disney favorite; and our intermission included welcoming Dad home from the city.  He didn’t have a fun trip back thanks to the rain and a dash or two of wet snow along the way; but we haven’t had much rain here yet; and no snow at all.

There’s supposed to be some of both overnight; but that’ll depend on the temperature.  We’d actually prefer the snow, since there isn’t supposed to be a lot of it; and rain or freezing rain could make things even messier by morning.

I haven’t actually been home for many dinner and movie nights lately, and one thing that has definitely changed now is that we don’t hang out together very late anymore.  Parents want to get kids home and off to bed; and sitting up and chatting until late just doesn’t work for them right now.  That’s why I’m still able to write this while it’s still well-before midnight; and I’ll be sleeping before then too.

I’ve skipped over the news for the rest of the day, but to be honest; not much happened this morning or at school; and my after-school time was mostly taken up with helping Mom with making dinner and hanging out with her, Ethan, and Ehlana.  It’s probably just as well that I can get to sleep soon anyway, since in addition to the extra chores we’ll be doing around here tomorrow; Dad and I will be doing some work at Grandma and Grandpa’s house to get it ready for when they’ll be home next week.

That’ll keep me busy all day, and Michael will be at the Inn a lot tomorrow too; but I’m hoping that we’ll get to have a bit of time together tomorrow night after he’s finished at the Inn for the day.  Maybe we should even shoot for an accidental sofa sleepover; since we’re both bound to be very tired after long work days! :^)

I’ll keep you posted on that – or be a day late with the next update if we do go there, but either way; that’s it for tonight, so, until next time...

...May the Magi Force be with you!
