Swim lessons and 4th of July, Plus a new dog...

Since our last update the two oldest, Cameron and Tyler, started swim lessons. They really enjoyed it and their teacher said that they caught on fast. Mommy took them during the week, but Dad was able to take them on the last day and get some pictures.

We celebrated the 4th by having our own fireworks at home. The kids had a blast. And holding with tradition, someone got burnt.We also got a new dog.

Hidden Valley Partner Pal 2008

This past weekend was Hidden Valley's partner pal. Our pack was the largest one there. We all stayed at the David campsite. The first night went without any problem, unless you include the fact that the boys stole all the blankets from their father.

Saturday was a busy day. First off was Rifle and Archery.
This was Tyler's first camp out with the Pack. He had a blast. Cameron and Tyler also got their first pocket knives. No cut fingers!!!

Saturday evening, the staff put on quite a show. We sang songs and were told campfire stories and skits.

Sunday morning all the scouts got to participate in the flag ceremony. It was a good time.

Vacation to New Mexio

This past week we went out to visit Joelene's sisters family in Bloomsfield, NM. It was a great time. After a five hour flight and a three hour drive, we arrived safely at her sisters. It was then that we got to meet the newest member of their family, Sara.

During during the week, we mostly hung out with the family and allowed the kids to play. It had been a couple of months since any of them saw each other, but after five minutes it was like old times.

We were also able to tour around some of the sites while we were their. One of them was the Aztec Ruins National Monument. I must say the that was one of my favorate parts of the vacation.

The other portion of the was spent visiting some of the other families, shopping, and just having fun. The week went by too quickly. We all made it home safe and sound.

Lock in and swimming...

This past weekend was a busy one. The cubscouts had a lock in at the church on friday. It was the first one that both Cameron and Tyler could attend together. It was great. Everyone set up their tents or sleeping bags in the gym. It was just like a campout, with out the bugs and the rain. They played games, cooked hot dogs, and watched a movie. Tyler ended up staying awake til 12:30am. Here are a few snap shots. On Sunday, we all went in to visit Grandma and Grandpa Kipe. We also got to go swimming in the pool. This was Bella's first swim.

Snow Tubing, Birthday, and Princesses. OH MY!

This Past weekend was pretty busy for us Kline's. On Friday night, Cameron had two of his friends over for a sleep over. They stayed up late watching movies and eating ice cream. The next day they were out in the hot tub right after breakfast. Then it was on to Dawson's Birthday Party...

Dawson's party was at the church. About ten of his little friends came out to celebrate his third birthday. Their was plenty cake and blues clues to go around.

Then, on Sunday night, Cameron and Daddy went Snow Tubing with the boy scouts. It was a blast.

And here is a cute shot of our to Princesses!

First Sleep over

Cameron had his first sleep over last night with one of his friends from cub scouts. They had pizza, played games, and watch a movie. It was an overnight success! Get it.

Boys will be boys...

You should see the other guy...
or should we say the other object.

Batman was at our house yesterday and was spinning around with a great force untill he was stopped by the terrible villan "the table". Since sustaining the above injuries he has hung up his cape for at least 24 hours. The next morning it was a bit more swollen with noticable difficulty opening his right eye.

Tune in next week! Same Kline channel, same Kline time!
