They are still here

The McKenzies are still here! We've mainly been playing video games and going riding. Of course all of them had top come to school with me and I have to take them everywhere I go, it's getting really annoying! I like them all, but after a week they are REALLY getting on my nerves!
Stella isn't helping either, I've been dragging Daniel, Alexander, James, George and Allen to dress fittings and the florist's. And believe me, those are not places to take a crowd of boys. And Daniel is such a suck up, every time I ask him who I look he goes into raptures!
Great, Stella wants to go shopping again!

The Mackenzies

So the McKenzies arrived this evening. They boys are pretty nice, they looked rather good in those kilts. We wore the national dress, white ankle-length dresses with twelve petty coats, the last one being tartan. That's only for the girls, obviously. They guys just wore suits.
Tomorrow I want to take them riding and to see Abigale. Then I guess I could take them to school with me on Monday... I'm really confused, what do you do with guys all week? I'll have to ask Victor.

Fall!

Fall is the most beautiful season in Dagmar. All the trees are red and gold. Of course while I'm trying to enjoy the weather Stella keeps annoying me about my wardrobe. And not just my "going places" wardrobe, she wants me to get rid of all my comfy jeans and sweaters! I told this to Victor, Gina and Roz. I let Gina and Roz shop my closet so they were really excited. But Victor was like, "whats wrong with what you've got on?"
Theo and I have been taking Lucy and Darcy (our horses) out more lately. The other day we rode over to our farm to watch them harvesting the crops. We met the cutest baby belonging to one of the farmers, the baby's name is Abigale. Tomorrow we are going to take some toys down to her. Theo and I are also going to ride through some of the smaller villages soon.
Of course some new dignitary is arriving tonight. These ones are Scottish, so we are all going to wear tartans, Dagmar was settled by the Scots at one point. They are bringing their families and I have charge of Daniel, Alexander, George, James and Allan. I really don't know what I'm going to do with these boys all week.
And that is the first week of fall for you.

Back! Finally.

Sorry I haven't written in a while, Stella's been dragging me all over creation to look at ugly wedding junk. I also had a HUGE history test. Then my computer died and Barry couldn't fix it so I had to send it to the shop...
But anyway I'm back!

Friday

If Stella is being a Bridezilla! If she asks me to go dress shoping with her one more time... Anyway, I can't wait until this wedding is over, I am so sick of it!
Victor has become more social lately, thank goodness. We went riding yesterday and his horse sat down in the pond! He was mad but I thought it was pretty funny. We had breakfast together this morning (ice cream!). It looks like he's back to normal.

The Letter

I showed the anonymus letter to Gina, Roz and Victor. Gina and Roz were all, "Awww! How sweet!" Victor was all, "So Orville's started paying people to write his letters?" I was all, "I don't think Orville is smart enough to do anything like that."
I put the letter in my bedside table, but I didn't tell Victor...
