Goodbye Daniel

Today was a sad day here at the Knudson house. We had to put little Daniel to sleep. He had gotten hurt and after taking him to the vet he went down hill. He quit eating and was only drinking a little water. He also couldn't stand up. His whole left side was parallized. We were hoping that the medicine we were giving him would help but it wasn't . He had a disc in his left shoulder out and a pinched nerve which was parallizing him. He was in a lot of pain and wasn't himself. I have had him since he was 8 weeks old and he was now 10 1/2 years old, so it was very hard for me to say goodbye to him. I will miss him.

Polly want a Cracker?

Last year for Christmas vacation we went to Texas to see Mike's parents. They go there for the winter! Anyway we went to South Padre Island and I was looking through some of the pictures and I found this one! I thought this was a good one for everyone to see!

Napping!

Taylor must have been really tired! The second picture was just for fun! He likes to have his picture taken and then seeing himself on the camera and computer! I know he didn't get that from me as you can tell there isn't many pics of me cause I hate the camera when it is pointed at me! hahaha

Trevor 2nd Grade

Happy Halloween!

Halloween has finally come and gone! Trevor was the Black Spiderman and Taylor was Superman. We went trick or treating and the kids made out like bandits once again. I bet the dentists love this holiday! We hope everyone had a Happy and safe Halloween!

Camping again!

We went camping again for Trevor's Fall Break from school. They had a contest for decorating your camp site and they also had a hay ride. The boys and I went on the hay ride and then that evening we roasted marshmellows! More like flaming marshmellows!! We had a deer come up right behind our camp site while we were roasting the marshmellows. The people at the registration area feed the deer so they aren't as scared of people as they should be! The weather stayed pretty warm until the last night we were there and then it got really cold and windy.

Nascar!

This past weekend Mike, Trevor, and I went to Nascar races in Kansas. We had a good time. They have a mall right next to the speed way called Legends mall and Friday night after Trackside we went and ate at a Dinosaur restraunt. Friday we went to Trackside on speed channel and we made some signs and we got on TV.(we're FAMOUS!) Saturday we got to the race track around 8:30 am and we did a fan walk. We got to go down by the garages. When we were down there they were just getting ready to have a Sprint Cup Crew Cheif meeting. So we got some autographs of Chad Knaus (Jimmie Johnson's Crew Cheif) and Steve Latrell not sure of the spelling but he is Jeff Gordon's crew cheif, and a couple of other guys autographs. It was pretty exciting. Also on the Fan walk Mike and Trevor got to see Ryan Newman. Then after we did the fan walk we went back to the truck and tailgated until the race started. Sunday we got there around 8:00 and we tailgated with Mike's cousin Dustin from Iowa until the race started. We had a good time and it was great to see Dustin. We came home on Monday but not before going to Nebraska Furniture and Cabella's. It was good to see Taylor but he ended up getting sick and we have been home all week with a bad cold. I think though it is finally starting to loosen up. Hopefully no one else in the family will get it! hahahaha!

Camping

Well we went camping the weekend after Labor day. We couldn't go labor day because the camp grounds we go to are booked almost a year in advance. It is a very popular camping area. It is in Mt. Home right along the White River. Great trout fishing. Alot of people fly fish here and some fish out of flat bottom boats. The boys enjoy fishing and riding their bikes when we go camping. It is about an hour away from where we live. We have alot of fun when we go. The camp ground is great cause it has a park for the boys to go and play at and basketball courts and plenty of open areas for throwing the football or frisbee. It's open year round! More Camping!
