Well, we made it home. 24 hours alone in a car with 4 kids, not a pleasant experience. But we all survived, and here are some more of the pictures from our trip:
Livvy posing in one of the doggy beds:
We look kind of sweaty and hot in this picture, it's because we were. There wasn't much air conditioning and it was around 105 degrees:
Me cuddling my little Easy-Peasy (Easton):
Tess and Haven became best buds while we were at Nana's and got into all sorts of trouble. They tried to mop Nana's floor for her. Basically they dumped a bucket of water on the floor then slid around on it:
Tess got a new life jacket and refused to take it off:
Easton and Liv havin a bath:
Tess' glasses:
Doesn't he look so pretty:

Frozen waffles really help with the teething pain (she's almost got that third tooth in):

We have less than a week before Becca has Girl Scout Camp and then the day she finishes we are heading out for another cross country drive. This time to San Diego for Sean and Pamela's wedding. We are planning to be home the day before school starts again.

Our camping trip in WI got rained out, and since we already had the days off and were packed we decided to just extend our trip in Denver by a few days. Here's Liv in the first couple hours of our drive.

Our first stop was in Colorado Springs at the Manitou cliffs Ancient Indian Cliff dwellings.
We then drove to the top of Pikes Peak. 
This is what Tess thought of the trip so far... (thumbs up.)
Then we went to the Rocky Mountain State Park. You can't really see it, but there is a moose on the hill behind the girls.
The Denver aquarium was the next trip.

We met up with my parents and one of my sisters in Denver to caravan down to Springfield, CO. Here they are on the 4th of July.


And finally, the main reason for the trip...Grandma's 90th birthday party.
Here's Matt on baby duty... that's our nephew, Easton.
Happy Birthday Grandma!!!
Tess, Haven, and Cale. All two, and a handful together!!! Haven is my niece and Cale is my cousin.
After Springfield we all drove up together to my parents house where everyone was happy to be able to stretch their legs a bit...

Easton and my sister Lexi's dog.
