| William snags a little Uncle Ian reading time |
 |
| The girls get their turn (I think Rosie was playing Othello with Uncle Jackson at this point). |
 |
| One of the top castle activities: gathering acorns |
 |
| William was simply transfixed by Rosie's new Kindle Fire |
 |
| Cousin shenanigans |
 |
| Passed out hard (but very briefly) while we waited for a table. Her mood improved considerably after this. |
 |
| The two littles danced around the restaurant to the Beatles while we waited in the bar area for our real table. |
 |
| Peppy loves her daddy! |
 |
| These guys had so much fun at their end of the table! |
 |
| Coloring with your cousin is just the best! |
 |
| We tried for a self-timer shot of the whole group, but Uncle Jackson and Rosie didn't make it into the frame. (And then in the ones where they did, Baby [REDACTED]'s face is showing, and I've run out of energy to deal with iphoto crashing while I go in to blur out his face again, haha.) |
 |
| More dancing, this time in the foyer at the castle. |
 |
| Peppy is pretttttty happy with her outfit. |
 |
| The VERY important business of counting/sorting acorns. |
 |
| Cousins! |
 |
| Rosie celebrates by throwing acorns in the air! |
 |
| Peppy takes advantage of the opportunity to mess with her mama's hair. |
 |
| Uncle Jackson checks out his loot from the Dirty Santa exchange. |
 |
| William took any opportunity to sneak a little forbidden screen time on Rosie's Kindle. |
 |
| Out to dinner the third night, and feeling pensive? |
 |
| Coloring with Baby [REDACTED]. There was a much cuter one, but again, it required blurring, and my iphoto is slow. |
 |
| Messing around in the Clocktower after we got back from dinner (and the other littles had fallen asleep on the way home). |
 |
| Not so ready for sleep! But enjoying Mama's boots. |
 |
| The last morning, feeding himself some Deh Deh Cheerios. |
 |
| And polishing off an orange for good measure. |
 |
| Deh Deh and Daddy say goodbye to the castle. |
 |
| One last little snuggle with Aunt Jane in the Silversmith's Cottage. |
 |
| Gathering by the fire. |
 |
| Farewell hugs. |
 |
| And high fives. |
 |
| Big hug for Rose. |
 |
| Saying goodbye to Uncle Ian. |
 |
| Group hug with Aunt Jane and Peppy! |
 |
| Cousins in front of the castle!! (Finally, one I managed to blur in iphoto in between its crashes.) |
 |
| Passssssed out in the car on the way home (of course he waited until super late in the day to do this). |
 |
| Home that night, fresh from his late-afternoon-to-evening nap, and ready to party! |
