What an Adventure!!!

Dela has been having the time of her life. First, Nana and Grampa Bo come from Michigan to visit for the weekend. Then the next weekend we drive to Starved Rock State Park on the Illinois River for another Mulder Family Adventure. Having grandparents around two weekends in a row can really spoil a girl, but Dela doesn't seem to mind.
She had a grand adventure. She got to see caves for the first time, and even go inside them... with a little help from dad and Tyler. We had a good game of where's the Adeline.
And long talks during hikes. But the best thing was all the cousins. Nathan is a little behind, so there are no cousins on the Hull side. Ellen, Laura, Jared, Tyler, and Ben were all very happy to see Adeline. This was not the first time they met Adeline, but it is the first time they were all together at once. Ellen and Laura of course are thrilled that Adeline has made the ratio of girl cousins to boy cousins equal.

The boys really liked Adeline too however... especially. The first thing he would say upon entering the room was, "Where's Baby Adeline?" He was really good with her. We all had a really good time. There was also a water park which we didn't get any picture in (if any other Mulders have pictures, we'd love a copy) that Dela loved. She splashed in the kiddie pool and grabbed at the waterfalls. Unfortunately, she would on occasion try to lick the water and ended up with a face full. That wasn't as fun.
All in all, all had a good time. Another successful Mulder Family Adventure has come to pass.
