My Secret to a Happy Airplane Ride
We came home and while I was unpacking this little girl found her suckers! She did have 3 in her mouth but by the time I put her in her chair and got the camera one had fallen. They really did do the trick on the airplane though.

Idaho 2011
We had a GREAT time in Idaho this year. We stayed for a little over 3 weeks. It was wonderful weather! Being pregnant this was exciting for me. I really didn't take pictures with my camera. I just mainly used my phone so the pictures are not the best. But at least I have some!!
I was going to try on the way to Rexburg to take a picture by the "Welcome to Idaho" sign. But this was way too nice to interrupt that.
The first night there Nathaniel and Hyrum both got dressed at the same time and came into the room wearing the same pj's! I just had to laugh. I guess Beth and I shop at the same places. Those boys had no idea what the other was wearing.
After a night or two we headed to the soccer tournament in Utah. The kids loved swimming and playing around there.
Hotels are the coolest thing ever in our family!
On the way back to Rexburg we got to celebrate my cousin Jano's little girl's first birthday. We send Don these pictures of Hyrum. This is their little thing. A long with the words "I fight you!" Boys!!
Of course I had to take this picture. She always finds a spot by the good food. Addy really seemed to fit in here. She loved being up in the center of things and dancing in front of everyone. I didn't get a picture of Elena because she was too busy playing with the kittens. This is also where Leslie drank dog water and got the runs. Good times!
Back to Rexburg. We all got our hair cut. These two stuck together the whole trip.
I wanted a picture of them because Elena got her hair cut just like Josie.
These two just got a trim. They sure are cute though!
Now on to the Rodriquez Reunion. Here are the living members of my mom's family.
Now just the siblings.
We always do the 10k run and the kid's 1 mile run.
You can't tell but there were way more people behind those you see in this photo.
After the run John took our families to the city of rocks. There was no way I was going up there. I watched the little ones.
We all needed a break after that. Here is John and his little girl Whitney.
Dan and I just talking in the shade.
Well now we are back in Rexburg and Don has joined us for our little Marlowe reunion. We went canoeing down warm river. Don really got to put his muscles to the test with this boat trip. I didn't row at all! I was in charge of the kids (okay really just watching Leslie).
Mom was the only one missing. After last year when she thought she was going to drown she couldn't bring herself to come. I even got to pass on the baton of catching minnows. But first I had to show them how a pro does it. Luckily, I still COULD!
Next we went on a hike/nature walk. LOL! Don LOVED this!!! HEHE! Leslie screamed the whole time. But at least the walk was only about 10 there and 10 minutes back.
Amy is only about a month behind me and man I look like a whale!
Here is Leslie and Whitney at Big J's.
Later we got to enjoy going on a date with Beth and Dan. She is definitely my favorite sister!!! Love her!!

4th of July
houston banned all fireworks because of the drought. So this year we had to come up with some fun with out fireworks. We ened up buying a grill, a little cheap baby pool, water balloons, and water squirters. Lulu liked it but she was a little leery of all the action from the older kids.
After the kids had ran out of water balloons uncle Joe went out and sprayed them down on the tramp. They had a lot of fun with him.
Since Joe was with the older kids the little ones got to play in the pool without being taken over by the older ones. Aidan like playing in the pool. Lulu thought it was okay.
Here is Joe, Drew and Aidan.
Here is Kevin, Jenna, Carter, and Bryce.
It really turned out to be a lot of fun for us!

Beginning of Summer
We started the summer with swimming lessons and art classes. We really tried to stick to a schedule and work on getting things done. What I mean is, we had so much time to get our chores done, homework, and piano. Then when that was all done we could have some fun! Here is Hyrum with two little frogs they played with at the swimming lessons.
Their teacher had a duckling show up on there door step so the kids one day got to swim and play with it. They LOVED it!
This one was taken with my phone and it must of been dirty! But anyway, here we are at Sweet Tomatoes. Hyrum decided he really didn't want to be in the picture.
Lu didn't mind though!

Baptism Card
I know this card is not perfect. It felt like a really long time since I had made a card so this one was really hard to make. I kept making mistake after mistake! Anyway here it is.
These pictures I wanted just for our family. They really showcase her true personality.
I love this little girl!!!! Isn't she precious?

Adelyn's Baptism Day
Her big day arrived! We took a picture afterwards of the family that came for the baptism.
Beth and my mom came to celebrate the event.
Grandma and Grandpa come also.
You know now that I look at this picture Elena kinda looks like her Grandma Hausen?!

Water Day at School
Adelyn forgot to take some extra clothes to school. So I load up the little ones and headed over to bring her some. I ended up decided that since I was already there I might as well stay and help. Luckily, it was outside and there was so much action going on that Leslie was preoccupied just watching that I could help.
I don't even want to attempt that!
Adelyn's teacher asked me if I had been a teacher before. I just laughed and said that is what happens when you have alot of kids!
Hyrum also joined in on the fun. He really thought he was part of the group.
I love that kid!!
