My Christmas Suprise

Before Christmas I showed Chad some dresses that I really like from Layers. They are all very feminine . Well he went all out and got me shoes. Check out these heals I had to practice but now I wear heals almost every day. He even got me a pearl necklace and earrings to go with it. Just like all our past Christmases Chad spoiled me and I was left opening presents way after everyone else was done. I got a whole new wardrobe and books to last me a while. We love that plasma money.

Target Shooting

We were so happy when some friends from Rexburg moved to Moscow. We went target shooting together. Chad is teaching Quade gun safety and how to use a gun. Quade also had fun playing in the mud. Kaden and I spent most the time in the truck listening to music. Kaden likes to dance. Chad also had is dads black powder gun which he had a great time shooting.



Calling in Deer

While we were in Oregon Grandpa took us out to call in some deer. We saw a bunch up close. Kaden can say deer now. Quade was amazed to find a huge elk antler and Kaden found a deer antler. (Grandpa had staged them) The boys thought it was so cool. Kaden wouldn't let me carry his back to the tuck so I had to carefully walk with him all the way up the hill. That was one of the funest parts of our vacation.




Christmas Day

For Christmas all Quade wanted was a spider that crawled. Chad was lucky enough to find one.

Christmas Tree Hunt

We spent Christmas in Oregon. The Contors don't usually have a tree because of lack of space, but when I am there they always find room to make me feel more at home. This is our hunt for a tree. The snow was waist deep and we got a work out packing the kids up the mountain and back up but we all had tons of fun.



Kaden's Spot

As Quade often says "Kaden is a silly man." Kaden is the life at our house. The fist thing he does when he gets out of the tub is puts his snow boots. He is wresting his Uncle Cody in this picture but he will attack anyone that gets on the floor for example Quade's preschool teacher. Kaden loves guns so he got cowboy pistols for Christmas which he is also shooting Uncle Cody with . These are also picrues of his first hair cut.




Halloween

For Halloween Quade and Kaden dressed up like army men. They made a good haul. We went to a mini mall, our ward trunk and treat and then to the mall. We just kept going till Quade said he was ready to stop. Kaden could have kept going forever, he thought it was great fun.

Getting to Know Moscow

Soon after we moved to Moscow we went with some new friends to the top of Moscow Mountain for a BBQ. It was a great day and the food was wonderful but there were hundreds of wasps that surrounded the camp site and kept following us. Luckily no one was stung. Quade and Kaden enjoyed playing in the dirt. Chad decided that I bike was a good investment for school, and Moscow has some nice bike trails e so we thought we would equip the whole family.






Pendleton Roundup


The Roundup is a huge deal where Chad's mom lives and is a good excuse for us to go visit. Quade had a great time on the rides. Kaden was frustrated because he was too small to join Quade on the airplane.
