another trip;)

We had so much fun the first time that we decided to take daddy up for a visit to the ADK. 

Daddy relaxing with the littles!  They missed him while he was gone last week

love this view!!

 Her hair is starting to look really red right now!  It must be from the sun!  I LOVE IT!!

 Prince Aidan getting pushed by the girls!

Prince Liam couldn't put down the truck/tractor book

 Daddy's turn to swim!

Thinking about whether or not he wants to go in!

 YES HE DOES!

 WARM UP TIME!

 UNCLE ERIC is DONE painting so now it is time to sit back relax and fish:)

 All good things must come to an end:(  Time to go home!

ADK Part II.... same day-different post:)

Some more pictures of the Adirondacks!

Waiting for his turn to fish:)

The cousins all relaxing with their feet in the water!

Gorgeous!

Sun is gone and getting ready for SMORES!!!

This little guy didn't get to stay up for the fun!

Why my kids go to bed early you ask.... They sleep later and better!  These two sweet smiles went to be SUPER late (for them!) and got up MUCH MUCH MUCH earlier then they normal do!!  I was also reminded why I do NOT sleep in bed with Emma... I think I am covered in bruises from being kicked all night;)

All smiles after only getting about 8.5 hours of sleep!  but those smiles didn't last too long;)

This one had to force the smile after not getting a good night sleep

Both happy to be sleeping!  They were sleeping within 10 minutes of leaving!!

ADK... a day trip

***WARNING.... PICTURE OVERLOAD!!!***

This past week Kim and Eric were up at a friends camp painting... well Eric was doing that part:) Kim was on vacation with the kids! We decided to crash her vacation with a day trip. There really are no words to describe to beauty of the Adirondacks. If you have never been there you really are missing out! I know there are beautiful places all over the world but this is one of NY's most beautiful places!!! Every state has their place and this is ours... This picture I think captures a little of the beauty of where we were! 

There is nothing like sitting next to a lake, looking at mountains and having a snack:)!

Emma wasted NO time in jumping in.  I couldn't get my camera out and down the dock fast enough.  She watcher H,D, and A and she went right in.  I don't think she was expecting it to be that deep and was a little frightened at first when she was in.  Once she saw where the ladder was she was right back at it!!!

some shallow water playtime with Delaney

Loving life right now!

The girls relaxing with snacks on the Hammock!  Who wouldn't want to spend the day resting and napping right there??!!

RUNNING START!!!

 

1....2...3... JUMP!

Liam was the judge:)

The girls and their matching bottoms:)

Emma and Liam were preparing for the campfire and smores:)

She was rubbing two sticks together... Kim and I had all we could do to not laugh.  No clue where she learned that

Game time with Delaney!!  She was very excited;)  Haha!

 

A little Fishing break for Uncle E:)

Picking blueberries!  YUMMY!

There will be more later:)  I need to go through the 200 pictures and pick a few (or a lot!)
