Legos!

The last few days around the Klumpe house have been pretty uneventful - just trying to catch up after being gone. While Gary and I were busy the kids were busy too, they wanted to show off their Lego creation and I was more than happy to snap a shot!

3 Tires Later!

Well 5 tanks of fuel and 3 tires later we are back home in Palisade. We had a great time at Kaczor camping and were glad to get to see everyone. Throughout the weekend we had 61 family, and friends through the sites! We left Palisade Wednesady afternoon and made it up to Grandma and Grandpa Boettchers a little after 11 pm we spent the night there and in the morning we packed up Grandmas things and ate lunch with them and then headed to the lake we played and swam and ate and played and swam and ate, it was alot of fun! The kids were sad to leave!

Justin's Rodeo!

Our good friend Justin (Paige says she is going to marry him someday!!) was riding bull in the Stockville Rodeo last night so after we took the campers home and unloaded we packed back up and headed to the rodeo! The pictures are really dark, he didn't make the full 8 seconds and he got a cut fat lip out of the deal, but everyone enjoyed watching him ride. We wish him better luck in McCook next weekend!

Puppy!

Thought I would throw in some pictures of the McCorkles new puppy we went to visit last night! What a cutie!




Weekend Happenings!

This weekend we worked around home - Gary was on call so he mowed and we washed the vehicles and vacuumed them all out. Penny and Chance came down on Sunday and took us out for lunch for my B-Day and then we all went to the pool! We did some more cleaning around the house then took a walk down to the McCorkles to see their new puppy!




Oh and lets not forget about Gary's deer! - We finally got it back from the taxidermist and got it hung up - the kids were very scared at first but are getting used to it. Karson asked Gary if his name was John - Gary siad how did you come up with that name he said "well isn't that John Deere"! Bless his heart Gary and I laughed for ten minutes~! The unofficial score on it was a 159!
