Well starting last wednesday Gary and I took off work at noon so we could go to Paige's field day...she participated in the shoe kick, sack race, and the 30 yard dash. She got 3rd place in each event and was very excited! It turned out to be a very nice day, we actually all got a touch sunburnt!
After the field day was over the kids were to go home with Gr & Gr Klumpe but Chance came down with the flu (no not the swine flu) so the kids got to venture to Texas with Mom and Dad to pick up our new (used) tractor. We put on just over 2000 miles between Wednesday and Saturday nights but all in all the trip went well and the kids had sun swimming at the hotel! But if we ever make that trip again I hope not to be pregnant (less bathroom breaks) and Gary hopes to never pull a trailer in downtown Houston (6 lane interstate) again!
........And YES the Klumpe Klan does realize this tractor is not a John Deere!
