The Adventures of Little Griff

Griff and I just returned home after spending much of the day at his friend Leif's birthday party. He is completely zonked out--soooo much fun! They have a creek bordering their property and Griff had a great time "fishing" with sticks, checking out people catching crayfish, and exploring. Leif's family has a magical property, definitely a place for finding natural treasures, exploration, and fairies. In fact, Leif's mom led them all on an expedition through the property, including "swampland" where they walked down a creek through mud and under little bridges, a bamboo forest where they saw a "panda", dinosaurland, a space mission that included the trampoline as the moon, a ong, winding trip to Australia where they spotted plastic marsupial wildlife hidden in teh vegetation, and finally to fairyland where they spotted glimmering "dust spot" fairies dancing among the redwood fairy ring. Unfortunately, I only took a few pictures as I was busy most of the time, but here are a few. Like I said, a magical property with wonderful friends. Happy birthday Leif! Thanks for sharing your special day with us! Here is a picture of Leif (and Griff's shoulder) at the beach together last week: Going to the creek
