Griffin's B-day and Thanksgiving

 It is still hard to believe that Griffin is now 7 years old. It is amazing how far he and we have come over that time. He got a Birthday Donut, instead of a cake, on his actual school day Birthday.

 He was very excited to get Angy Birds: Star Wars.

 He even let his sister help him open presents. What a nice brother.

For Griffin's Birthday Party we invited a bunch of his friends to class about snakes at the Athens Nature Center. All the kids had a great time learning about and touching snakes.

Catalina had fun too.

 

 Griffin also enjoyed his actual Birthday Cake.

 For Thanksgiving this year we visited our friends, the Banyai's, at their home in Granite Falls, NC. It was so great to see them and catch-up a bit. We had a wonderful meal a few days together.

 Their girls loved hanging out with Catalina.

Back home Catalina loved getting a bath.
