Secret letter

As I was going through all the wrapping paper under the tree I found a present I had missed. There was no name tag, which was kinda weird. But when I opened it there was a really pretty necklace it looked like diamonds. And there was another one of those letters. It said:

Dearest Ramona, I hope your Christmas is joyful. Mine shall not be, however, because You are not with me. I will not rest until you are with me, never to depart. Please meet me in the garden at the stroke of twelve on the twenty-eighth of December. I implore you, my dearest Ramona, do not let me down.

Yours Truly

__________

Of course I called Roz and Gina and they are over here right now.

Me: D'ya know who it could be from?
Gina: Maybe Orville has acquired a sense of style.
Roz: No way. It's probably Daniel.
Me: Nah, we had a big fight on boxing day.
Gina: Maybe it's Ryan. I heard he and Lizzie broke up.
Roz: No, he's dating Felicia.
Gina: What if it's Gavin or Toby?
Me: It can't be. I got the letters before I met them.
Roz: What about one of Victor's cousins? He could have snuck the letters in for them.
Me: Maybe. I hope not though.
Theo (sticking his head in): What about ole' Vic himself?
Me: Ewww! That would be to weird.
Gina: No way, I though he liked Rosie.
Roz: Yeah.
me :Get out, Theo!

This is SO romantic and weird and awesome and creepy!

Christmas

Well, all of us had a great Christmas. Of course we are hosting parties and getting presents for the next 8 or so days. Victor, Theo and I have been goofing around all day, we got a croquette set so we've tried that out...
I guess I should tell you what I got for Christmas.
A tiara (from Gran)
Several enlightening books - from Stella and Rupert
A new polo pony from mother and dad (my old one died)
An adorable shirt from Gina
A really cute hat from Roz
Ugly jewelry from Orville, but Ailie gave me the cutest pair of earrings
Awesome slippers from Cam & Jo.
And a whole lot more stuff.

Merry Chrsitmas

MERRY CHRSITMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!
LOVE
THE ROYAL FAMILY OF DAGMAR
GRAN, MOTHER, DAD, STELLA, THEO AND RAMONA!

Christmas Eve

Well, here we are, all 102 of us. Theo, Victor and I are bouncing off the walls. To keep ourselfs occupied today we have fenced, gone for a ride, played nine games of chess, and almost taught ourselfs how to play harp. Man, if everyday were Christmas eve I would be so accomplished!
We are all resting up for Mid-night mass at the moment (or at least supposedly)

More Guests

Well, about 95 people have just arrived at our house. Who knew this many people wanted to have Christmas with us. Mother, Victor and I are going last minute shopping in a while.
Here's a list of our guests:

Lady Cam' and her sister, Jo
Prince Orville (EEWWWWW) and his sister, Ailie
Duke Henry and Duchess Lucy Roberts
Lord Richard and Lady Joy
Sir Cockayne
Sarah and Annie Bingly
Lady Hannah Dexter
And a lot more people I've never met before.

The Tree

We got the tree; it's ceder and smells great! Theo and I went and picked it out. We are going to decorate it before all the guests get here at seven. Victor and Theo have already hauled all the ornaments down from the closets. Gran, mother and Auntie Elizabeth are rushing around trying to decorate the rest of the palace (it's not very big). Some of the servants are trying to figure out why Auntie and Harry are here early. So things are pretty messy around here.

Guests

Guess how many people are coming for Christmas? 24! I'm not exactly thrilled. I really don't want 24 random people to see me in my Santa jammies. Of course two of the guests are Stella and her husband, I thing we call him, Rupert. Our other guests are:

Toby & Gavin's family
Daniel's family
Victor's cousins

Christmas Adam

Today is what Victor calls "Christmas Adam." Y'know like Adam and Eve, Get it? You can tell how hyper I am, can't you?

Getting ready for Chritmas

Today we lighted all four advent candles. At the moment I am getting ready to go and find our Tree with Theo. I've got nearly all my presents wrapped, and I am starting to bounce off the walls. Theo says I should take my horse out this afternoon and get away from it all.
Victor is really busy at the moment, helping his father and everything. But he said he would be done this afternoon.Then maybe he can come riding with me...

STELLA!

Guess what! Stella is having a baby, it's going to be a girl. They want to name her Isabella Ramona! I am so excited. Of course I will have to meet them secretly because I am really not supposed to have any contact with her.
I am THRILLED!

Yet another diplomat

This is the second time this year I have had to entertain a diplomat's sons. This time I kind of like the guys, they are called Toby and Gavin. They are really cool, even Victor likes them. We spent this morning playing WII and Guitar Hero, it was FUN!
Gina and Roz have been over and are both madly in love with Toby and Gavin. I have to admit they are rather attractive.
