Griffin Reunion/90th Birthday

To add on to the previous post, one special thing that happened while on vacation was the Griffins all got together for a bit of a reunion, and celebrated an early 90th birthday for my Grandpa.  While we didn't have everyone, we were pretty darn close and had about 75 people in attendance out at Barb and Mark's place at the lake.  Was super convenient for us as we just had to walk down the street.  Lots of pics were taken that day and I'm uploading a lot to send out to the family, but thought I'd share a few of my favorites related to our family.

I bought each of the girls a new outfit, mainly because Sawyer got a new dress when we were shopping one day, and so I figured I could coordinate the other two.  She was LOVING her party dress.
Not a great picture of the three together, but not terrible.  I loved Margot's outfit.  Her name is embroidered on the front so this week before she grows out of it I'm going to try and get some good ones of just her in it.
These girls go from loving to hate in 2.2 seconds.  Luckily both were well behaved at the party, and Sawyer stayed extremely late, not wanting the night to end.  We paid for it the next day with some very tired kids.

 Daddy and Isla
The Birthday boy - Grandpa Griffin - with Margot.  I'm not sure of the numbers but someone said Margot was perhaps his 24th Great Grandchild...or thereabouts.  We can't wait to see them together again come the Spring when we go to Florida for vacation.
And last but not least, Grandma and Grandpa with their nine grandkids.  Pretty successful shot I think - and more enjoyable than last year's experience trying to get a picture while we were in Delaware.
