Newton

Last weekend we went to Newton to celebrate Grandpa Earl and Grandma Gloria's 55th wedding anniversary. We had a great time celebrating and sharing memories!

In a rare moment, we captured Brent's smile on camera. Both Brent and Doreen share a smile!

Nathan and Papa Brent discuss some serious business.
Earl, Chad and Nathan discuss farming and John Deere.

Chad, Nathan and Shay say "Cheese"

What I enjoyed most was watching Nathan's imagination run wild. He found this puppy figurine and decided he needed to take care of his puppy. He played with it, took it on a walk and even took him to the bathroom.

Nathan even set up a "dog house" for his puppy and gave his puppy some dog food (chips)...

...and a water bowl and a big kiss on the head.

It was great to see his imagination working and figuring out what he needed to give to this puppy. He did such a good job taking care of this one, I think he is ready for the real deal!
