When we visit Grandma and Grandpa, we always go to the Four Aces Diner. I like the yogurt with King Arthur Flour granola and real Vermont maple syrup.
Later, Grandpa and I went fishing on Eastman Lake. I caught a lot of algae!

NEW HAMPSHIRE KAYAKING
Every time we go to New Hampshire, we need to make sure we go kayaking! This time, we used the inflatable kayak, which is cool, because all three of us can go at the same time.
THANKSGIVING DAY ROARING FIRE
Fireplace!!! (We are thankful for fireplaces.)
SNOW DAYS ARE LAZY DAYS
It was snowy and icy outside, which was my excuse for the perfect day of lounging around.
Grandma and I had a “draw off,” which will become our new evening tradition while I’m here.
SNOWMEN AND SLEDDING
On our first full day in New Hampshire, it snowed!
It was cold and slushy and I managed to stay outside for about ten minutes, but I packed a lot in. Like making tiny snowmen with Grandpa.
And sledding down Winter Hill Road. I wonder why they call it Winter Hill. Hmmmmm…
KAYAK BOY
On our final day in New Hampshire, we went out to breakfast and Hugs had a great time frolicking outside.
After breakfast, we went out to the lake.
I got all geared up for a big outing on the inflatable kayak. I named the boat Chillo. I named Grandpa’s other kayaks Lenny and Dottie.
After Mommy, Daddy, and I all went out, Grandpa took it for a spin, too.
When we got back home, Grandma read me a story as we began to wind down for our trip back to Portland.
LAUNCHING THE KAYAK
Today we walked down through the forest to the edge of Grandma and Grandpa’s property, where a kayak was waiting for us.
I was all outfitted and ready to go!
First I went with Mommy…
…then with Daddy. I helped both of them paddle.
When we were finished kayaking, I helped Grandma make brownies. My job was to stir the batter 50 times!
LAZY NEW HAMPSHIRE DAY
You know there’s nothing I love more than a lazy day. And I got to have one on our first full day in New Hampshire.
(Actually, first I got to drop pins with Daddy! That’s when I pick a spot on Google Maps and Daddy drives there. Then we do it again. And again… It’s my favorite game.)
But the rest of the day was lazy! First, I checked out the “Harry Potter room” upstairs.
Then I drove my car around the house quite a bit.
And then outside later to admire Grandma’s deck garden.
SEE YA NEXT YEAR, NEW HAMPSHIRE
Yesterday was our last day in New Hampshire before we set off for New York.
My favorite part of the day was flying the gliders Grandpa got me!
We also went to King Arthur Flour where I turned wheat berries into flour. That was also super fun. I now want a mill.
Then we went to a bookstore that had a cool little tiny house outside. I had fun, New Hampshire!
KAYAKING
On my first full day in Grantham, I went kayaking for the first time! We packed the sand bucket, monster truck, and toy boat for the beach, but once I got in the kayak, it’s all I wanted to do.
We also went out to eat a couple of times. This is me and Uncle Mike during breakfast.
And here’s me and Grandma relaxing before dinner.
