Christmas Tree Hunting.

We had a fun adventure searching for the "perfect tree" with mom and dad. We went up Bridger Canyon on the Brackett Creek Rd.
It was alot of fun and very cold. Kadence did very well as we had him strapped into a sled for a short time. What fun winter is!!!

We are Back on the Blog !!!

Dear readers,
Our sincere apologies for missing the last two months. life has been very busy for us and I have not made the time to upload pictures. Instead of play catch-up I will start from Dec 07 with some fun winter pictures. Thanks for sharing in our life through the blog.

A visit to the Pumpkin Patch

We all made a little trip to a local Pumpkin patch. They gave us a hayride to the field where you picked out the "perfect pumpkin". It was alot of fun for everyone and Kadence was very impressed with the tractor and kept watchin the wheels. I must say he is all boy ! :)

Swimming Lessons

We have been taking Kadence to parent/taught infant lessons at the local hot springs pool. He does so well and loves to splash with his hands and blow bubbles. He is also really figuring out how to float except he sometimes wants to put his feet up in the air. It is so cute and I can't help but laugh at him. "Grandma Petersen" helped me capture some cute pics of him in the water.

Fall leaves

Last Sunday with my parents(Larry & Barb) we went for a little fall drive down to the headwaters by Three Forks to get some cute fall pics. These are a few results from that. We are really enjoying having them here to visit and Kadence loves his Grandpa and Grandma lots allready.

Pic for Aunt Jennifer

I took this pic a week ago of him in his 1st Alaska t-shirt sent from the Craig's in Alaska. It sure is cute on him.

"Learning to walk " (kinda)...

This fun little toy was bought for Kade before he was born and we finally got it out for him to play with. It is still a little big for him but boy did we have a happy boy as it allowed him something to hold on to and stand up. Standing is very exciting for him, his little legs just wiggle and he grins away. Very entertainging for us !

A Quote for the Day

"Whenever I held my newborn babe in my arms, I used to think what I did and what I said to him would have an influence not only on him, but on everyone he meets, not for a day or a year, but for all eternity. What a challenge, what a joy!"
Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy

Nebraska Fan

We have a future football player in the making and of course he is a Cornhusker fan !!!!

Hyalite Lake Hike

We all took a little walk last week up by the lake and had a wonderful time. It was a bit chilly but Kadence loved looking around and seeing all the trees. We even had to wade through a creek with him in his stroller and that was an experience.

A sunny evening picture

These are our new theme pics for our blogspot. We had a beautiful fall evening last week and I captured this pretty sunset accross from our house. Kadence was also playing with Abby giving him a little pat. They are allready good buddies.

Yahhh daddy's Home..

This was the first day that Joel got home and boy was he happy to see his little boy. 2 1/2 weeks is al ong time to be away !!!:)

Swing Play Time

6 1/2 Months~
This was some fun mommy time that we had together while Joel was gone. Our little boy loves to swing and explore at the park. We had so much fun time together and laughed alot.

Sleeping so Peaceful

I captured these sweet pics of my little man two days ago and wanted to share with you all. He was cuddling with me as Joel has been gone fighting fires with the Guard.

Hide & Seek

As you can see from the pics our little man can finally roll over both ways and grabs onto lots of things in the process. Of course most things go in the mouth....I guess toys taste good.

I was doing some cleaning the other day and found him underneath the toys with the cutest grin on his face. He just loves to pull things on top himself. So funny but adorable. Enjoy !!!

mmmmmmmm Crackers...

Aunt Jennifer sent Kade some rice crackers that dissolve very well and he really enjoys them. This is a pic of him trying one, at first he had a hard time getting it into his mouth but he figured out the principle really quick.

Fun on the swings

We all went on a little walk the other evening to the park close to our house and played on the swings. I was swinging with Kade when Joel decided Abby needed to ride with him. So our dog experienced her first swing. What a goofball !!!

Bath Robe.

These cute pics are mostly for cousin Stephanie. I thought how cute Madison looked in her little robe and wanted to share Kadence modeling his blue robe. Although I definetly think it fits a little beautiful girl better but thought you would all enjoy these shots.

Polson Lake pics

Last weekend we had a mini-family vacation to Polson to visit Joel's Grandparents at the lake house. It was so much fun for all of us and Kadence loved watching everyone and all the water.
