Baby William makes15






Finally I have something to talk about!!! William Thomas Krebs was born Wednesday August 11th at 6:47am weighing in at 9# 3oz and 21 inches long.He reminds us of Ben when he was little because of all the hair and a few other features. He has Ty-Ty's ears and chin.This is the third time I have tried to add to my blog hopefully the third time is the charm. We have had a lot of fun this past week playing with Ben and Ty and of course holding William.




The Scandinavian Festival in Junction City was held last week. I love to go and can hardly wait each year(I am a Swede). Well I have missed going for a couple of years and so this was the year that I was definitely going!!! (Ops Little William decided to come. Tues. night just as we were going to bed Ashlee calls and says its time I think, hold off for one more hour and I'll call you back. So I packed and got ready and sure enough it was time.) Well that took care of going to the Scandinavian Festival except my brain was figuring things out and on Fri. I decided that Ashlee needed some one on one time with the baby, therefore Ben, Ty and myself headed for Eugene. They jumped on the trampoline, rode bikes, watched TV, and went swimming. About 5 o'clock we headed for Junction City(this is really not a fair for little kids)and to the Swedish Meat Pie booth.(This is the reason I love to go). Jerry waits in a long line and I go to find corn dogs for the kids.


We found the Viking Man and he gave a top to each of the boys that he had made. We connected with Jerry and walked to the opposite end to find the corn dogs and ate our supper in the shade and close to a bathroom(porta-potty). Ben asked what is this??? Do you pee where the poop is??? We asked the kids what they wanted and Ben tells us he wants popcorn and cotton candy. So that is what he got and after a stop for shaved ice, that they loved, we started for the car. We got all strapped into the car and Jerry turns it on and it will not start. A call to AAA fixed that problem and while we waited a train came right passed us and that made the ride worthwhile for the kids. Yey!!! I got to go to the Scandinavian Festival!!!!

The Newell News Goes Online - Edition 1: The Miracle


It is a small miracle that we are doing a blog. We will do our best to keep up a journal of our activities throughout the year. All in the name of Family History. Wish us luck!
