Dane's new goodies!


We were in need of a better backpack for Dane for all of our outdoor adventures. We found a Kelty on e-bay and it came in the mail on Saturday so of course we had to try it out on Sunday! We went back to the Missouri and did some fishing. The backpack worked out really well. It was comfortable for us and him. I also had this mosquito netting and as you can see we draped it all around him so we didn't have to worry about the bugs and the sunshade did pretty well keeping him out of the sun! He enjoyed the view from my back or from the ground, and was telling us lots of stories as he hung out in the shade!


As always, Clint was the superior fisherman. He caught a wide variety of fish including the sauger and catfish shown below! I only caught one fish... a little sauger. The bass that were so numerous last time didn't seem to be biting. But, we both had an incredible time. Dane's friend Hannah, and her parent's Jeremy and Kristi sent Dane a really cool rainforest jumparoo! (It's just like Porter's!) He loves all the flashing lights and music, as you can see he is having a great time!

On our way out to go fishing we saw these mulies in a wheat field. Though they weren't total monsters, 3 of the 4 were very respectable critters, and they still have a little growing to do!

Hannah is so happy Dane loves his jumperoo. It was her FAVORITE toy. She also LOVES her Kelty packback. She now dislikes the stroller and will fuss. But we can go on hour long hikes and never hear a peep from her in the Kelty. LOVE IT!
