The Griffin 4's Thanksgiving with Grandmommy and Granddaddy, Take 2! Two years ago when we were a new family of 4 it was GM and GD's year to have us for Thanksgiving...but just a couple days into it we were slammed by a handful of ear infections and just all around illness and spent Thanksgiving morning driving south on 95 home to Virginia. But NOT THIS YEAR! We remained healthy (until we came home, that is) and had a great time. Not too many pictures from the festivities to show for it, but fun was had!
Princess Harper and a momentarily calm Shannon
Harper going for a little jog with Grandmommy in her leopard dress and sparkly shoes, naturally.
Some Thanksgiving day silliness with the boys
And getting some serious play in with our favorite cousin Christy, who was in from Portland! SO thankful our years home coincided. PHEW!
Playing Restaurant with Uncle Ted.
No simple feat. He's not the easiest customer!
On Friday we escaped to the Enchanted Woods for Winterthur to see if we could find some fairies!
We found their mushroom ring, that apparently emits steam when anyone walks into it...but perhaps only in the warmer months ;)
Making themselves at home, Goldilocks style, in the fairy house.
Bravely crossing the Troll Bridge
We stumbled upon a truly magnificent GIANT bird's nest, so naturally we climbed in and sat on the eggs to keep them warm.
Fairy's Labyrinth
Ladies tea party
Getting comfy in a slightly more snug fairy dwelling
Not too many pictures of our budding cyclist, but Hadley got some really great practice on her bike while we were up there! Not to mention some work on her tennis game as well.
Brrrr!
