We had Meghan's 3 sisters with us for 11 days and boy did i learn a lot. first i learned that 10 people in a house is a massive amount of people when 7 of them are kids. i learned that kids will incur many many repairs on your house. i learned that repeatedly slamming doors will result in numerous things falling off your walls. and i learned that i am thrilled that they were all at least over 5 years old!!!. we really had fun. they are great girls and were quite helpful with the children too.
Morghan (10) Addison (6) and Michaela (turned 12 when she was here)!!!
here they were right before they left our house
One final jump on the trampoline!!!
i love this pic of makenna!! we were all taking pictures together and i was lucky enough to snap at just the right moment!
yep...this is the crowd that graced our house for so long...yet not long enough. we have a big house and it was still noisy. as a matter of fact today we have not known what to do with such silence now that they are gone...but i am sure we will figure it out!
i loved this pic of elias...such a boy already!
We had a surprise birthday party for Meghan (24!) when the girls were here. she was beyond thrilled to be on her treasure hunt for her presents...
Michaela had a birthday too (12) while she was here so of course a party was in order!
my mom and Michaela. 
my mom made michaela's cake...exactly to her specifications!
the birthday girl just needed a kiss!!!
daddy brought home a turtle that he saved from eminent peril and they named him slow poke. i allowed for his containment and torture in a box utnil the next to last day they were here...then i insisted they let that poor thing go. however, they really took good care of slow poke!
