Fairy Houses

The girls spent a good deal of time this summer working on their fairy houses.  There were several nights where they left the fairies notes filled with questions and Lee the fairies always seemed to remember to leave a  response.  Elizabeth's designs have become more and more intricate while Emily has stuck to tried and true building methods.  I really want to bring the girls to the tour of Fairy Houses in Portsmouth this coming weekend, because I think that they would really love it; however, the last couple of car trips have really taken a lot out of me (must be getting old), and Lee is strongly against me making another trip up north any time soon (not to mention that we already have an over-scheduled weekend as it is).  I guess that we will have to wait for next year!

The recent round of fairies visiting the girls' houses are from the Hosta famly and one of them left a surprise for Emily one morning!
