Spring is here for the Kansas Halls! :P

Hey everyone, this is Wade! The Kansas Halls have kinda lost touch of the Blog but we'll start posting again, keeping everyone up to date! :) I hope we go to the 2nd annual "Celebrate Family" BBQ at Aunt Tracy's since we didn't make it last year :(( I'll try to talk mom & dad into it. Well I just wanted say hey and that we miss EVERYONE!! & thought I'd post a few pictures from this weekend out at the lake, I just got a Kayak and it was my first time taking it out! :))It was so much fun! :)
My friend Brittany tried it out, she thought she was gonna tip, she was freaking out the whole time hahah. But she liked it too, she's gonna buy one and we're gonna kayak down the Kansas River this summer!
The kayak is only a one seater. So naturally my cousin, Dexter and I had to both go out in it.. not the best idea.. haha
It's really relaxing!! :))

SAVE THE DATE!

Hi Family -
You are all invited to the 2nd annual "Celebrate Family" BBQ at our house June 25th at 2 pm. I am putting this out there now before summer plans get made :>). I hope to see you all there.

My Happy Boy

This morning I got up and went to get Kaden out of his crib and there he was in all his glory . . . covered from head to toe in dried vomit with a big smile on his face. I don't have Dad's gag reflex, but it's close. I spent 2 hours scrubbing stuffed animals with an old toothbrush, washing laundry/carpet etc. and was able to fight off the gagging fits. It was more vomit than I have ever seen in one place, okay some of you are starting to gag :>) so I'll stop. My Kaden is such a happy boy. We were reading books about feelings a little while ago and he says "Kaden happy" even when he's sick. Anyway, I feel so lucky to have such a happy boy!

Yay Kaden!

We just got back from Kaden's 2 year well child Doctor visit. He is growing - yay! I think all that egg nog over the holidays really helped. The nurse asked Kaden how old he was. Two, he proudly replied. The nurse asked him if he had a cake for his birthday - oh yeah. Did he get presents - oh yeah. What was his favorite thing to play with? A pause and then . . . Papa.

Wait for it...

Workin' it.

  Working it.  With air guitar.

 Ownin' it.

 Workin' with what he's got.

 Under restraints.

SQUIRREL! (Seriously, so easily distracted)

...and finally wishing you a very Merry Christmas!

RRooaarr . . . ick o ea . . . hank ou

Tate's Football

Tate running in for a touchdown!
Tate running in for another touchdown!

Tate played flag football this year. He was on the Raiders team, much to our joy! We love the Raiders...even if they aren't doing so well! This was the first year playing for Tate, and he had a lot of fun! Next year, he will probably move up to tackle football!
