Headed for a long weekend!

The guys headed out early this morining for the Bartley/Cambride area to build 3 miles of line that was destroyed in last weekends storm - from what I understand this line is just for oil wells but the local power comapny has been to busy getting everything residential repaired they haven't gotten around to this 3 miles of line. So SWPPD sent 8 guys out for the weekend to "git-r-done"!

The kids will sure miss their dad this weekend, but the overtime is always good!

So please keep all the guys in your prayers as they will be putting in some long days! Gary, Justin, Todd, Owen, Kyle, Brian, Jim, & Jared!

Here are a few pictures gary has taken in the past couple of years I thought you might enjoy!

Quotes!

It has been cold and wet lately so the Klumpe's have'nt been up to much!

I am going to print some quotes to go with our Pioneer Day theme of Committment to Community and wanted to see if anyone out there had some good quotes for me. This is what I have so far.

Without a sense of caring there can be no sense of community.

You must be the change you wish to see in the world.

The people crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.

Let me know if you have any others!!

Cheap Sunglasses!

At our weekly trip to Wal-Mart the kids each picked out some new shades! Pretty Cute I must say!

Bible School / Hand

We left at noon on Friday to make it to Spencer in time to see Paige's Bible School Program, she sang really good and we are so proud of her!

After Aunt Tracy took her to the Dr on Wed & Thurs. and got her hand all Dr'ed up aunt Stephanie had to show us how to change the wrap. It is healing great and looking better every day.
Here is cousin Garrett pulling the kids in the wagon he would pull them down the drive then back up it - he was warming up for the pedal pull this year at the fair!

Paige's Hand

Paige had to go to the Dr to have a sliver removed it was deep and had gotten infected so they had to cut a chunk out and bandage it all up!

Big Thanks to Aunt Tracy for taking her down to the Dr for 2 days in a row! and for taking such good care of my baby! Thanks also to Grandma and the Lynch Medical Staff for all your help!

Mom and Dad sent her some pretty flowers!
