On November 18th, I drove down the Springfield with the girls to stay in a hotel with Quinn. He had to be back at "boot camp" early on Sunday the 20th, so we drove down to get as many hours out of the weekend as we could. It wasn't a bad drive, and we got to see Quinn way earlier on Friday evening (around 4 pm instead of 9 pm if he had come home). The hotel was nice on Friday night, and not so nice on Saturday night when our entire floor was taken over by a frat party... that caused us to have to move rooms with ALL our stuff and two kids! Oh well. It was Ruby's first "vacation" and it was good quality time with Quinn.
First time in a hotel room - Spit up and all!
It was super windy out!
Checking out the Illinois State Museum
Learning about Lake County
Learning about mussels
Digging for bones - She wouldn't get in with him!
This is what infants do at the museum!
It was an interesting trip. One that I will have to make again in a few weeks. At least the trip I make in a few weeks will be for Quinn's graduation, and he will be coming home with us!
