Dress Up

Blake was LOVING trying on my outfit for my 50's HOP we had at Deaf and Hard of Hearing Camp. I just had to share this smile. I know it's been a while since I've had much new on here. With camp and then we had freinds come down!!! We had a baby shower for little Jaren and the baptism is next weekend. Now school starts so soon =( We are just trying to enjoy every minute we have left of summer. I'll try to post more photos and information later.

Baby Jaren

Baby Jaren John McFadden has joined the ranks of the Kampling Family. He was born Yesterday the 11th, and going home any minute now. We are so excited to get to watch Jenny and Mark become parents and to get to spoil another nephew!!!

How Fireworks ended up...

So we were out doing some fireworks with Blake so he wouldn't be so scared of them come the night of the 4th when he is tired and grumpy....Well as we were out doing them, we noticed that the field across from our house was on Fire. A car had just drove by and the neighbor girl said those 3 boys had been driving around shooting off fireworks into that field all day. Well we got to call 911 and watch the firetruck (little one) and the police come and put it out. Now Blake thinks every time you do a jumping jack firework that it will catch the field on fire. He thought that that was what did it. I didn't think he'd remember or really not remember which firework did it, but now every time we do a jumping jack he looks at the field and says 'fire'? He's not scared of them, but just thought it was funny.

Swimming

We went swimming with Papa Lyle and Great Grandma Marge, and had a great time!!!

Grandma's new TOY

So our mother has been hinting over and over and over again for the last couple of weeks how badly she wished she had a John Deere Gator ride toy for her grandkids, so we finally picked up on the not so sudle hints and got her an early birthday gift and gave her her new toy. This is one of my favorite pictures of Blake enjoying it. HE loved it! I think these faces are why grandma wanted it so badly.

Playing in Wheat!

We went to the wheat field again this year so we could get some more pictures. I'm saving the good ones of just Blake for his 3 year pictures (I know they are early, but I can't take a wheat picture in November) so you'll just have to wait. I just really liked this picture of the two of us, and wanted to share. Thanks to Aunt Jenny for taking it for us, and for letting us use 'her wheat' !!
