I would normally say you have your hands full with 5 children shopping but your boys are so well behaved and helpful! Violet is getting so big and as always is adorable. Thanks for sharing your day.

Mom box sounds great . I wish I knew about this a long time ago I have four kids who are grown now .I have three grandsons they are also grown to. Waiting on the great grandkids now . Love watching your kids also enjoying Violet 💜 I had a granddaughter she was only one pound . We only had her for a few minutes.I got to make her one outfit. I spent more on the lace than all the material cost . The women cutting the lace kept telling me how expensive it was. I tried holding it together I finally broke down . Another worker came over and she cut the lace . I didn't hear what she told the other woman but she disappeared. There were other women waiting to get material cut . She asked them if it was ok to check me out. They all said yes some of them were crying. I thanked them and left . I hope I didn't upset you .I couldn't hold it in any more . Prayers and Love 💞 From Oklahoma

​@@gingerdunn6590Awww prayers for you grandma, hopefully soon you will have another to enjoy till you see your first again.I lost a great grandbaby couple years ago,didn't even know he/she was coming along ng till granddaughter got sick.Etopic pregnancy,but we will see it again some day.Have a great grandbaby by another granddaughter now,she's so beautiful and sweet.Have another great grandbaby due late this year by one who lost other baby,can't wait.I will remember you in my prayers❤️

I love how all of your boys love on Violet, but I especially like watching Bennett with her. His eyes light up every time he has her in his arms or when he talks to her.

It is so sweet watching the boys with their sister. Such a loving family. 😊❤

I cant get over how sweet Bennet is with Violet ❤❤❤ he will be her protector

Lauren, you and Mark have raised 4 amazing young men…And, YES baby girl is so sweet, her smile makes my heart smile and she is a true baby doll 💜

❤❤❤ Growing up 50 years ago, my mom had a giant snack box that we'd take camping, hiking, swimming, etc. 😊

I love the mom store idea esp with you having multiple kiddos and visitors as well. Very fun

What a fun video. Your boys are so helpful and really good with Violet. You and Mark have done an excellent job.

You’re such a good mama. Always making sure the boys feel a part of what they are eating. Just love your family. ❤️

Fun family outing. Best Mom award goes to Lauren

Glad your life is becoming normal again! Watching you think how God is healing your family-he's so good. You are one blessed woman!

What a WONDERFUL family outing!!! 🥰🙏❤️❤️❤️🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Having the snack bin is so much better than buying snacks when you are out. Great Idea Lauren. When my kids were young we always brought snacks with us. I always had 2 to 4 kids extra in tow. Have a wonderful summer. God Bless.

The boys are so sweet to Violet and she did so good

It's hilarious to see you guys shopping for Carhartts and rain gear. It automatically makes me think of Alaska or the Pacific Northwest. Growing up in Oregon this is how people live with the weather. We don't get the large amounts of snow and extreme cold, with more of a nice long warm, sunny season.

I love love love your boys! All four just grab my heart but I worked middle and high school front office for years and just love that age group.

Thank you Lauren and Boys xxxxx❤❤❤❤❤❤

Love shopping days. So much great gear in Alaska. Love the baby gear. So cute. ❤❤❤❤❤the baby extratoughs are simply gorgeous. Going shopping with five kids is a major achievement Lauren. When I took my two with me it was challenging to say the least. Great job. The boys are good though. Very helpful and love their sister. ❤❤❤❤love the Mum bin. Great idea.

I love you family!! I am a granny and all my grands are adults. I love watching your kids grow and play! Thank you for the look into your lives! I appreciate you all!!

Really enjoyed this trip with all the kids! You can also use the mini bags of Fritos and make walking tacos. Put all the taco stuff in the bag, stir and eat out of the bag!

Violet so big ❤princess Blessings to all.

Love your videos ❤ what a blessed family you have. I can't wait for more summer videos.😊 Violet is really growing. She is so beautiful. 😊

Snack bin is a great idea!

Those Brownie Brittle Bites are SOOO GOOD!!

You have great kids. So helpful to you and mark

Lauren, you are looking fabulous.

I love how the boys make over Violet. I'm grinning ear to ear!

Love the snack box idea ❤

Wow what a good shopping day with the kids they were all happy ones 😅even little violet aww ❤ she getting cuter and bigger 😊 i cant wait to go on your adventures with you and your family loren 🎉 .

I loved your video. And I love the “Mom Store” idea. I wish I’d thought about that when my kids were younger. I love how close your family is. Reminds me of my childhood. And Miss Luna is so cute. We just got a kitten a few months ago. We have a Golden Retriever, GoldenDoodle, and a kitten. ❤

Can I just say, I Love watching your videos. You are so kind and your boys are so nice and helpful. And I can’t forget sweet Violet too. ❤

Those are some lucky, lucky children and I love how you and Mark let them help you, they are great workers. Loved all the cute boots and gear. Miss Violet looked extra cute and is always so happy. Thanks for taking us along. Happy 4th of July 🇺🇸💥

Happy shopping

great video, Ms. Violet is so precious and I love watching Bennett holding her. You have a beautiful family. Lots of love from South Africa.

I just wanted to say thank you! I'm moving to Alaska in a couple of weeks to take an assistant principal job, and your videos have helped to know what to expect, what to buy, etc. Thank you for sharing your sweet family and your adventures with us!

I just love your channel Lauren. You and your family are like good friends to me. I feel the same way about #HomeFreeAlaska. I watch only TWO Alaska channels. GOOD GOOD FOLKS❤️💙

They are true children with all the emotions but they are also amazing and great helpers. I’m so grateful for them all.

Seeing the Splashy one piece suit reminded me of the 1960s. Oklahoma had some really cold winter weather then so my mom would bundle us up in our coats, gloves, scarves and boots then she'd put these one piece rain suits on us so we could play in the snow without getting our warm winter wear wet. We looked like little bright red Michelin people or little brother Randy in A Christmas Story. And, somewhere, there's film (not video) of us rolling around in the yard.

Thanks for sharing Laura what a fun day . Baby Violet is so adorable in her outfit ❤️

I have been doing a snack store since the 80’s until my children were all grown up. I recently made snack bins for my 5 grandchildren and my 3 adult children plus their spouses and I have to tell you it was a big hit. This brought back so many great memories my children enjoyed it just as much as my grandchildren. We took our bins to Sequoia National Park for a family reunion The only thing, I think my Costco might be higher in price because I spent almost 600. But that also included a lot of fresh fruit

Violet loves her big brothers,I bet they spoiled her,she growingp so fast,it,s wonderful having a girl dress her up.Lauren your a great mom,have a great summer.

Love your Family!!❤️🙏

Carhartts are really good for hiking too, especially in places where thorns are a problem. And in the winter (probably fall equivalent for you guys) I would put a pair of long underwear pants under them to help keep me extra warm.

What a fun trip!

I have to catch up on your videos, been binged watching. Violet has grown so much and your sons are getting do big. Lovely family. Enjoy summer.. 😊❤

Those baby extra tufs were unbelievably adorable!!! Love everything about your family ❤️ (Super sad we dont have the brownie brittle here in the UK)
