The Knudsen Family

Bathtub time

One night when we were at Grandma and Grandpa Knudsen's the boys wanted to try out the jetted tub. We accidentally put too many bubbles in it and this is what we got. They sure had fun.

4th of July

This year we got to head to Delta for the 4th of July. We had a lot of fun at the parade and got tons of candy.

Later that day we all floated down the river and had a yummy dinner with our family. It was so much fun.

It all started one day as we headed to Winco to do some grocery shopping. There is a PetSmart right next door and on this particular Saturday they had a pet rescue agency out front trying to adopt out dogs. Now usually they have the full grown dogs and it is fun just to go look at them. But this day they had a little puppy that we could not pass up. Boston and Preston had been begging to a puppy for like forever. This day daddy finally got in and we all got what we had been waiting for. At the time her name was Truffles but it just didn't feel right so we decided on the name Daisy, which happened to also be her sister name that was there that day and went to another family. She is so cute and so much fun to have around. Here she is when we first brought her home.

She has gotten a bit bigger but we sure still love her and love having her around. I will post another picture when I find a good one of what she looks like now.

Kindergarten graduation

May 2013 Boston and Preston graduated from Kindergarten. It was such a great year and they loved having Mrs. Jensen as their teacher. They learned so much. They went from not being able to read at all to Boston being higher than his grade level by like two grades and Preston being right at the top of his grade level where he needed to be. They both excelled in Math and learned so many great things. Here is the class before the program began.

Now on to 1st grade!!

Chloe came to visit

Back in May we got to dog sit Chloe while my parents went to Connecticut to visit Marcus and Maria. Boston and Preston were so excited to watch her and took the task very seriously. They had so much fun having her ride to school with them and then having her waiting when we came home. They would fight over who got to open the door to see her first. They did such a great job it may have lead to a dog of their own later in the summer.
