***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.

Cassie's Journal - November 10, 2015



It’s been another crazy-busy Tuesday for me; though there’s been enough fun to go along with all of the work to keep me happy – if not well-rested.



Our morning routine didn’t include anything newsworthy to report; and my school day was fairly uneventful – except for cheerleading and band practices at lunchtime and after school.  The cheerleading workout was outdoors, and we were pretty much ready for the game on Friday by the time we wrapped that up; so the next two practices should be comparatively easy.  Band practices now are all about getting ready for the Christmas parades and concerts season, and though it’s hard to believe; we’re down to just weeks until our first Christmas parade of the year!  That’s why we spent a little extra time on our practice again today; and then Mrs. Robinson and I had a chat about the latest news for getting our marching band and trip to Disney plans.  Most of that was just a bunch of boring details, and the only important news to report from all of it is that we will soon have all of the necessary approvals from the school and town to go ahead with the project; and there will likely be some financial support too – though not for the actual trip to Florida.  We’ll need to raise the money for that ourselves.



Michael and I went to his house for dinner; we took care of the clean-up; and then moved on to the church for our teen praise team practice.  While Stacey is off taking care of David, Pastor Martha and Mrs. Robinson are going to share the work for the Christmas musical and all of the rest of the holiday music and services we’ll be involved in.  Mrs. Robinson led our practice tonight, since it was mostly about the music; but we’ll be adding in the ‘actors’ for the musical fairly soon; since we’ll also need to teach them all of the chorus music.  We were at the church for nearly an hour and a half; and then I went home again with Michael so that we could do our homework and have a bit more time together before he’ll be back to his after-school work at the Inn tomorrow.



The homework was easy-enough to get done; we had a nice bedtime chat with his parents and Rebecca; and then I came home again after we shared our goodnight hugs and kisses out on his front porch.  There was no make-out session of any kind tonight, but Michael’s getting tired too; so we decided to save that for another day.



At the rate we’re doing that saving; we’ll need to take a month off sometime to make up for all of the making-out we don’t have time for now! ;^)



Mom, Dad, Ethan, and Ehlana were all working in the office when I got back, so after catching up on what they’d been doing all day; Mom did my Magi lesson with me and then sent me off with orders to tuck my brother and sister in for the night and then get to bed.  I did that, but going to sleep too wasn’t an option; and I’ve been working on my computer for the past three and a half hours.  That means that bedtime will be a bit earlier than yesterday; but I’m just as tired out thanks to a more-tedious archive assignment.  That is pretty much all of the news I have for today, though, and I don’t want to waste that extra nap time by dragging this out for no reason; so, until next time...



...May the Magi Force be with you!
