Rebecca's Thanksgiving Photoshoot

R = Rebecca


Over Thanksgiving I traveled to North Carolina with mom, and it was amazing, there was so much SNOW!




Outside in the cold.

I'm trying to pose and stay warm.

Because it is very cold.

My beautiful curl.

So pretty isn't it?

My curls dusted in snow....

The Time Of The Year Has Come Back

E = Elizabeth
A = Astrid
R = Rebecca




E: It is that time of the year. That one. The one where mom picks out who is joining the family next.


R: Except this year it is different.


E: Shut up Rebecca.


R: Sure....


E: This year, we can't tell you. We know a tiny bit about her, but nothing else. We know what she looks like, but we still can't tell you.


A: Zip.


R: Nadah.


E: BUT, Mom gave us permission to tell you of someone else joining the family in about six months!



R: Yes, she did give us permission to do that.



E: In about six months, joining the family is.....





ADUKE WALKER!



R: Interesting name.


E: Yeah....

Ryder's Cold Photo's

R = Ryder



R: IT. IS. COLD. Our mom loves it, but she ALWAYS loves the cold, no matter how bitter and brutal, she LOVES it. And she made me bundle up for a photo shoot out there about a week ago....



Cold. Even in the sunlight. It maybe broke thirty degrees (Fahrenheit) today. 

Freezing. Cold.

I need thicker pants.

Maybe a ski suit.

Come gloves perhaps.

A Photo Shoot From Our Trip To Florida

M = Mini Marie-Grace





M: So while we were in Florida I got a photo shoot done! It was awesome!




Here I am by a tree with Spanish Moss on it, kinda creepy, but cool!

And now I'm on a tree!

Comfy.

This is an orange tree in the backyard! 

And a shot of the spanish moss tree, the orange tree, and the other little one!

Such pretty flowers.

And this, is an area off to the side of the yard, kind of like a miniature Florida jungle!




That was all from our vacation, nothing more happened too much.

Hi again!

M = Marie Grace

E = Elliot

K = Kaya




E: It is so awesome down here!


M: I know! I wish we could change clothes though, I just want mom to let us pick them out, I don't want her picking ours out...


E: Why wouldn't you want her picking out our clothes?


M: Because, well, today she was wearing those shorts that are kinda short, and that tank top....


K: So what if mom wears shorts that aren't very long? She can't help it! She has long legs!


E: Yeah!



K: And she wore that tank top because it is hot here in Florida! So what if it is thin enough to show the pink of her stomach, and low enough on the neck to make her relatives cringe....



E: You see Marie Grace, she loves that shirt, not only did her mom give it to her to wear, she loves the white with the green embroidery, and the lace straps, and the white ribbon and the cut of the hem.



K: Exactly.



M: Oh, I see. Anyway, it is still sto beautiful here in Florida!

Room Decor and Other Stuff

R = Ryder

F = Felicity




F; Hello everyone! So sorry for our lack of posting.... We don't have easy access to a computer much anymore. So, today mother redecorated our rooms for Fall and Christmas!




So here is the first room at the foot of the bed we have a little rug and a pumpkin that looks yellow here but is actually white.

And this is the bed with a quilt and red pillow and stuffed bunny.


Next is the more decorated room.



It has a hand knitted mitten that used be mom's, a small ornament, our slightly smaller rocking chair, a nice fur rug, our pine-cone Christmas tree, a cloth wreath, and a teddy bear, a larger ornament, and a bell like the ones on Santa's sleigh! It is so cozy there. 


We are all dressed in our Christmas attire as well! It is very early for this, we know, but the reason why mom did this all now, Ryder will tell you.



R: The reason mom did this all now is because mom has a great aunt who has cancer, and isn't doing well. So..... They are going down to Florida to be with her and the other family down or going down there as well. And because mom will be gone the days she usually does the decorating she did it early for us. Also... I'm going to Florida! Astrid said she didn't want to go, and mom liked the idea of me going somewhere, so in around a week-ish, we are leaving and going down!



F: So, that is what is going on......



R: Yup.

Just a regular post

A = Astrid,
R = Ryder,



A: Sorry, no new episodes of The Azalea's Willow yet, we need to shoot the last piece still. This is kind of my post, unless someone really wants to say something.

So recently, during all the work being put into The Azalea's Willow, I've had little time to myself, but now that I've snagged some, I have come across some interesting thoughts. The most important one, was a huge realization, I never, EVER, really thought about it, I ignored it, but I realize now, I'M HALF HAWAIIAN. There is a huge culture that is a part of me, and I've ignored it.


I hoʻomanaʻo pehea ma ʻōlelo  Hawaiian.



R: WHAT WAS THAT?!


A: It says; I remember how to speak Hawaiian. I actually do, a tiny bit.... Not by much though, I barely managed that sentence!


R: You keep working on that.....

The Azalea's Willow; Episode 3

"You wouldn't believe it Emmy! This new house sucks! First Aunt Victoria takes a week to decide that letting Azalea stay with us was a good idea, THEN, two days alter she says the tiny house needs to be sold and that we need a bigger one! But my room, Azalea's room, while there is a lot of rooms, they are all TINY. Think bathroom or closet sized!" Lyla ranted.


 Emmy gasped from the other end of the phone. "It must suck! And now we are nearly half an hour away from each other, instead of two blocks apart! But I guess living nearer to Danny makes you happy." Lyla smiled a tiny bit. "Yeah, it is nice having him closer, but I haven't even seen him since that night a couple weeks ago. I've got to go Emmy, someone is here." Lyla replied and hung up.

"Danny! Hi!" Lyla said in the best relaxed tone she could manage.



 "Hi Lyla! I have some presents for Azalea, but how are you?" He asks her delightfully. 
 "I'm good. Come chat for a bit!" She says and invites him onto the bed.

"Well, your Aunt certainly got the purple paint up quickly, she REALLY loves that color. Nice, room..." He says.


He glances around at the tight space of bed pressed against bookshelf that Lyla was now calling 'her room.'

"So, how is everything?" Danny asks.

Lyla groans and throws her head back. "AWFUL. Azalea has completely flip flopped my life! I had to MOVE because of her, and she doesn't seem to grasp that Aunt Victoria and I are only keeping her for a little bit! We still aren't sure if she is going to stay permanently or not!" 

Danny was silent for a second before replying carefully, "I'll help you with this later, but for now, I want to give Azalea her present." Lyla nodded and the two got up. 



"Hi Mrs. Reins! I have something for Azalea." Danny greeted. "Hello Danny! It is good to see you! I'll call Azalea out in just a minute, but first.

Have you seen my glasses? I can't find them anywhere!" Mrs. Reins asked and glanced frantically around the room. 

"These glasses?" Lyla asked and scooped them up off the floor. Mrs. Reins took them quickly.

''Thank you Lyla!"

"Anytime Aunt Victoria....." Lyla replied. "Azalea!" Mrs. Reins called out a few seconds later.
Azalea came out of her also tiny room. Danny stepped up to her. "Hi Azalea! I'm a friend of Lyla's, I got you this present!" 

Danny handed the red bag over to the little girl. "Open it." He said excitedly. 

Azalea unzipped it and pulled out four cute stuffed teddy bears.

"THANK YOU!" Azalea said and leaped forward to give Danny a hug.

"That was very nice of you Danny, how would you like to stay for dinner?" Mrs. Reins asked.

"I'd like that!" He answered.

"Can I invite Willow?!" Azalea asked excitedly. Mrs. Reins saw the fear struck on Lyla's face and knew that was a bad idea.

"Not this time, we won't have enough room at the table." Mrs. Reins said to make the girl feel better.

"That's okay,...

I'll invite her next time!" She said.

She took her toys to her bedroom to play.

After a yummy meal and desert cooked by Mrs. Reins, Danny and Lyla headed back upstairs.

They sat and chatted before Lyla grew bored. Danny hopped up, he knew exactly what she needed!

He got the book of quotes out and opened it. Lyla leaned over to see which quote he was going to read.


"None will improve your lot, if you yourselves do not." Danny read out loud perfectly.



CHECK BACK NEXT WEEK FOR EPISODE FOUR! 




Lyla Bennsley; Astrid Overland
Azalea Crier; Rosalia Carter
Mrs. Victoria Reins; Samantha Parkington-Carter
