Anyhow, I was quite tired when I arrived on July 23rd, so Jenn just let me sleep the day away. When I awoke, I was greeted by Elphie, and having already talked to her a bit online, I was ecstatic to finally meet her in person.
Soon enough, I met Mia, and we headed off on a road trip to the Natick AG Boutique & Bistro - quel amusement! Jenn and Missy were even kind enough to get me my own souvenir shirt. (Thank You!)
Mia and I (with Mischa and Emily of Star Valley) even had fun in the bathroom. Here we are meeting our "mirror friends" - kind of like Anne Shirley's dear window friend in Anne of Green Gables. 
Bien sûr, looking at my mirror reflection made me miss my own dear twin, Juliette. I decided to go look for her in the store, but since she's still back in Paris and isn't looking to apply to school over here at this time, I knew any girls who looked like me in the store were just unrelated clones. But don't I wish that Juliette had been among them! 
After leaving the mall, we stopped on the French King Bridge to admire the pretty view. Here I am with Water St.'s newest resident, Solana. Isn't she gorgeous? 
On August 1st, Elphie and I decided to join Sarah and Annie of Star Valley on a visit to Ashuelot Park in Keene, NH. Here I am at the park's entrance:
We did a bit of hiking, posed with some pretty wildflowers, climbed a few trees, and found these really cool rocks to climb on. Park outings are the BEST because there are so many things you can do and so many things that stimulate the imagination. Like we found this grove of trees that looked almost magical in appearance! Elphie wanted to try some spells underneath them. Of course, I'd be all for that - except I'm not a witch. ;) 
So, what's your favorite thing to do at the park on a summer day?
Ton amie,
Sophie

We love to play croquet, eat food and just spend time with friends at the parks .. also I love it when we have summer music groups that come and play their songs in the parks ..
Miss You,

Oh...it looks like you are having a great time! Solana is gorgeous, by the way!
LOL...if you are ever missing your twin, we could lend you Zan. Random, je sais, but she has been quite the pest lately.
My favorite thing to do in the park is just walk around it with friends.

Sounds like you had a blast, Sophie! I love the last picture: it does look magical. My favorite thing to do in the summer is play soccer with my sisters, though we usually just goof off!
Emily
WHAT?!?!?! Elphie lives at my house! She's an impostor, Sophie...
--Um, just ignore Hope. I'm jealous that you got to visit an AG Place. That park looks gorgeous. Obviously, my favorite thing to do at a park is skate (during the winter, of course!) - or sail.
