Keeping VERY busy!

While Daddy was away we kept very busy.  We had a quick visit from Nana and Pop Pop, went to play at different parks, had a sleep over with Mom in our sleeping bags, and the best part was we got to visit Marin's grandparents in Libertyville, IL for a couple nights. 

The girls were so excited to spend the night with Marin for two nights!


These girls are best buddies!  It is so fun to watch them grow up together.

Crazy girls!  Audrey even got in on the silly faces!



Emmerson loved all the flowers in Marin's grandparents yard.  Marin's Grandpa let them pick plenty of them!




Aunt Lizzie playing Duck Duck Goose with all the kids. 


Audrey just watching the action. 

They have a fishing pond so the girls got to try fishing for the first time.  


Claire caught a tiny fish.   She thought it was so cute!




Emmerson caught one too.


She liked it from a little farther away. 












Oh Claire....goggles, Audrey's hat, and a little purse!



Nothing better than a tree swing!


Aunt Lizzie's closet brought hours of dress up fun!




We went to a great park called Independence Grove!  It was so much FUN!


These little girls love to watch their big sisters!




We also did lots of swimming!


These sweet babies have known each other since hours after Quinn was born.  (they are 8 weeks apart) Brigid has been home for the last 9 months so we have been able to spend lots of time with them.  It is fun to watch them get to know each other.  We never go anywhere that someone doesn't comment on all the hair the two of them have! 




They always want what they other one has!


We did a little photo shoot to try to capture these 5 together!  Of course easier said than done!

We have had such a fun summer with these 5 sweet girls that it is sad to see it come to an end, but this trip was a fun way to wrap it up!  The big girls always play so well together and the babies keep each other entertained too.   So it is fun and easy....well, as easy as 5 girls 5 or under can be!


Aunt Lizzie was a BIG hit!


The girls were SO excited about a sleepover with Marin!


Silly girls!


When I came down to go to bed this is what I found!  Such sweet sisters!





We also got to visit our cousins Cole and Will at their new house!


GG Surber's two youngest great grandchildren (Audrey and Will) got to meet. 


On the way home we decided to stop at Fair Oaks Farm to break up the trip.  We had 5 VERY tired girls so it was a quick stop.




But of course there was time for ice cream!
