Birthday Bash, Fail?? {An AG Photo-Story}

Hello! Katherine here. Today I have a special post for you. 

Enjoy!

It was a cool day in October (on Saturday in fact) when Samantha was sitting in her chair enjoying her book. While she was reading it, a thought came into her mind.

She immediately stood up and called Saige's name.

She leaned against the wall in deep thought.

Saige came and curtsied to Samantha saying, "Thy servant is ready to comply to thy needs." (Saige was reading some Medieval books, and she has a habit of taking personalities from time periods that she reads about.)

"What is it Samantha?" Saige asked in modern day language.

"I have an important question to ask you. How long has Katrina been adopted into our family?" Samantha asked.

"Well, why for over a year!" Saige exclaimed.

"Yes! And when have we celebrated her birthday?" questioned Samantha.

Saige scratched her head. "Why, well never!"

"Exactly! She's been here for over a year, and we haven't celebrated her birthday yet!"

"Well,what shall we do?" asked Saige.

"Here's my plan," said Samantha. "First we will...........

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Ugh!" cried Samantha. "Why must it be so windy!"

"What do you expect? It's Kansas; it's always windy!" replied Saige.

"There. Now it is set back up right. Now for the dishes."

Samantha added the dishes to the table.

While Samantha was getting the table ready, Saige was drawing hopscotch on the sidewalk.

Samantha stood in front of the table. She told Saige to go get Katrina.

Saige came out with Katrina.

"No peeking Katrina. Close your eyes and I will lead you."

(Somebody is peeking.)

"Surprise!" yelled Samantha. "Happy late/early birthday Katrina!"

Katrina was so happy that her sisters had thrown her a small party! (She also told them that her birthday was in July, but she didn't want to inconvenience anyone so she didn't tell anyone.)

The girls decided to play hopscotch, and then eat the food.

"Um, does anyone know how to play hopscotch?" Katrina asked. Saige and Samantha both confessed that they didn't know how to play.

A small voice said, "I know."

"It's quite easy in fact. Would you like me to tell you how to play?" the strange girl asked.

They all stared at her, but she didn't seem to mind.

"So you take a small rock, toss it onto the hopscotch area......"

"Then you hop on 1 with one foot, then 2 and 3 with two feet, etc., just making sure to skip the number with the rock."

"You go all the way to ten, turn around, and pick up your rock as you go back."

"I'll try!" boldly declared Samantha.

After some introductions they learned that the girl's name was Anastasia. They all played some hopscotch and were having a fun time. 

But, it was time for the food for Katrina's party, and they weren't sure how to politely send Anastasia away. They told her that they were very glad to have met her and that she should come visit them some time again.

"Um," nervously Anastasia stuttered. "Well, Katherine told me..."

"Katherine told you what?" Saige asked.

"Well," Anastasia looked embarrassed. "Katherine told me that I would find my three sisters out here."

They all stared at each other in shocked silence.

Samantha was the first to come out of the silence. She welcomed Anastasia and grabbed her the closest thing to a chair. She apologized that Anastasia had to sit in the wheel chair because they only had three chairs.

"Are you sure I'm not intruding?" Anastasia asked.

"No, of course not!" Samantha replied. "We are so glad to have you as our new sister!"

Katrina sighed and looked off into the distance. She wasn't happy with having a new sister. Why did Anastasia have to come on her birthday?!

But she put on a smile and pretended to be friendly with Anastasia. They all enjoyed all of their food. (I think that Saige and Katrina might have gotten a sugar rush)

They would have done presents outside, but it was going to rain on them, so they quickly rushed inside.

(Saige had to fix Katrina's hair before the pictures)

The beautiful birthday girl!

The girls gathered around Katrina and gave her the presents. 

Inside the first package was a beautiful necklace.

The second was some cute clothes.

And lastly the last was a gorgeous sparkly dress.

THE EN-------

"Wait!" cried Samantha. "It's not the end yet."

She left and returned with a familiar size rectangle box.

Inside was Rebecca. Katrina was getting all teary eyed. "Thank you guys all so much! I had a wonderful day even though at first I thought is was ruined with Anastasia, but she seems like such a sweet girl and I can't believe I was opposed to her being here. Welcome Anastasia to the family, and thank you to my wonderful sisters! I'm so glad that I was adopted into this family and you guys are such wonderful sisters, and I know I'm rambling but I love all of you guys even Anastasia. You guys are the best sisters I could ever ask for!"

After Katrina's little speech, I told them I wanted a family picture together.

Samantha- "Am I too tall in these shoes?"

Saige-"I look terrible in this lighting. I want to go outside."

Anastasia-"Am I looking at the camera?

Katrina- "The light's too dark on me. This isn't working. Lets go outside. Am I turned too much?"

After all their complaining they did go outside, and I did get a family picture of them which I will post later.

Saige-"Did I mention that my birthday is today?"

~~~~~

Saige! Why didn't you tell us sooner?

Oh well. We'll have to throw a birthday party for her too.

Have you ever had a birthday party that you thought wouldn't turn out but then it really did work? Or did it not work out like you thought? Tell me in the comments!

Also, welcome Anastasia to the doll family!

She will be added to Meet the Dolls page soon. Also, Kaya is now on the Meet the Dolls page so go check that out. :)
