06/16/25-06/20/25 Yellowstone

We had a really great week on our Yellowstone trip. We stayed at a VRBO cabin in a remote cabin in Ashton, Idaho. It was just right for our group. We were able to go to Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Mesa Falls, the Yellowstone Playhouse, Lava Hot Springs Pools and Slides.  We drove lots, played games, did puzzles, roasted hot dogs, made s'mores, enjoyed picnic lunches, ice cream at the frost top, dinners together made by each lil family and so much more.  Loved it! (There are lots more pictures in our shared Yellowstone google album. Also, these pictures are not in order of happening. )

06/14/25 Pre-Yellowstone

Last year for Christmas I purchased a vacation to Yellowstone for the kids and us. The dates for the Yellowstone cabin were June 16-June 20. We decided to break the trip up a little and drive up the weekend before and drive home the weekend after. Also, because Katie got married, and Dallas has limited time off, he was unable to take his family on the trip. We stayed at his house and got some twin time in before we continued north.  Aspen and John moved to Pennsylvania and are in Utah for the summer.

12/25/25 Griffin Christmas Party

Our annual Griffin Family Christmas Party - we had turkey, ham, potatoes, Laura's famous gingerbread cookies and so many other delicious treats.  We did our favorite things gift exchange (everyone brings an item valued at $25 that they love. Then all the gifts are placed in the middle of the room. Everyone is given a # from 1 - however many people there are. Then one by one everyone picks a present. It can then be stolen away (up to 2Xs) or a new gift can be selected until everyone has had a turn and all steals are exhausted. We do this instead of buying gifts for everyone in the family. Super fun to see what people love and to steal away the gifts! haha Aj, Eldon, Andy, Michael, Ben, Aiden Diane, Shelly, Wendy, Aaron, Laura, Katie Erik, Holly, Chip, Granpa, Beau Daxton, Abby, Rory
