Sorry, it has been ages since I have last updated this blog. I got a new camera and couldn't figure out how to download my pictures and then get them on the site. I have finally figured out how to do all of that good stuff!!! I can't get over the fact that we are a couple of weeks away from the month of September...WOW!!! where has the summer gone??? We have highly enjoyed our summer months. The days have consisted of a lot of bike rides (Karson does great he can ride 3-4 miles without complaining once), trips to the park, ball games and the waterpark! It has been a really fun summer and I am not ready for it to end.
Karson will begin the five-year-old preschool program at Trinity on September 8th. I think he is excited to go, but a little nervous not really knowing anyone in his class. He will do a great job!
As for Kamryn, I really haven't decided what I am going to do this fall. I overextended myself this last year and was never home. I have decided that this is my last year that I can really be home, so I am not sure if I am going to do MOPS or mommy/me classes. We will have to see what happens. I really want to enjoy my time at home! I will try really hard in the next couple of months to keep up on the family blog!

Karson really enjoyed the turtle slide at the waterpark!

We have a new water park here in Owatonna. We were very excited to have it come since we had nowhere to go on those hot, summer days. Both kids really enjoy the zero depth pool and lazy river. Kamryn is definatly our little fish!!!

Kamryn loving her goats!!

We decided to go to a "free" Zoo (with Minnesota animals only) with some friends one afternoon. The kiddos had a terrific time running around checking out all of the animals and things to do.

Kamryn enjoying the summer weather.

While mowing the lawn on sunny afternoon I lifted up the end of a gutter to find a new friend...a toad. Kamryn took a liking to the toad right away and gave him the name of "toey." Karson was not home at the time but I knew that he would want to see the toad so Kam and I put him in a bucket until Karson got home. In the mean time Kamryn decided to carry around the bucket with her new found friend!!!! Once Karson got home and was able to see the toad we decided to let him go in the lot next door. Karson was so sweet telling the toad to go back with its family.
