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!

Ethan's and Ehlana's Journals - June 19, 2018


Ethan:
Ehlana and I were at the lab this morning; our afternoon play time got messed up a bit by a thunderstorm that kept us indoors for a couple of hours; and then we went out to play again – and enjoyed the temporary break in the heat thanks to that storm – though it began to get humid again once the sun came out again and started to dry up all the rain.

Please do not cue the itsty bitsy spider!  I may only be seven – almost; but even boys my age are too-cool for songs like that!

Everything was still wet after the storms rolled through, so we didn’t play at the playground or ride the dirt trails at the park, but we did ride the trail around town; stopped for ice cream at the Emporium, and then hung out at our house until dinnertime.  Mom did another easy dinner ahead of Ehlana and Naomi’s ball practice; Aiden and I went along to that practice; and then we ended up hanging out at the playground with some of the guys when they showed up and started razzing us about watching the girls’ practice.  We came home after that; did some work and studying in the office with Mom; and then came up to bed.  I did some bonus reading after my bedtime chat with Ehlana; and now I’m ready to get some sleep.

Ethan – out!

Ehlana:
We didn’t make any progress in the lab today; half of our play afternoon was rained-out; and then we had fun with some biking and a run for ice cream treats that didn’t spoil our dinner; but only because Ethan and I have metabolisms as crazy and overactive as Cassie’s; so we can pretty much eat anything we want.  Naomi and Aiden were with us for dinner again; Naomi and I had our ball practice after that; and the boys only stayed for part of that practice before their buddies stopped by and started razzing them until they went to the playground to hang out there instead.

Mom brought us home after the practice; we did some work and studying in the office; and then we were sent up to bed after that while Mom opted for some quality time with her Jacuzzi.  I grabbed a shower to get cleaned up from ball practice; had a bedtime chat with Ethan; and then I’ve only been doing a bit of archive research to look for old ideas that I can try with the work I’m doing at the lab.  We’ve had a good day, but I’m tired; so I guess that’s all for today.

This is Ehlana Proctor; coming to you live from what is now my past!
