Swade

Swade is quite the kid. He has had an amazing 2009. He has grown in size and in smarts. He never ceases to amaze me. He turned 5 in September but not soon enough to go to school, so he'll start kindergarten in the fall of 2010. He knows his ABC's and 123's he went to pre school and graduated in the spring. He can use the computer better than his grandma. He plays computer games, wore out the X Box runs the satellite dish and DVD. I don't know if this is good or not. At this rate he'll be driving at 10. He hangs out with adults all day, if you can call West and I adults??? We are some times:) Swade is friends with everyone. He is known at the rodeo's as Swader Bader. He learned to ride his bike last summer without training wheels and loves to drive uncle Jade's uni loader any chance he can. loves to chase chickens and catches several at the county fair rodeo's every year. He's rode a horse, pony, sheep, pig, a few dogs and lets not forget his dad (he makes him play bucking Bull's several times a week) He wants to grow up and be a cowboy. He got a red rider BB gun for Christmas and now his life is complete. He is ALL BOY!

Vance

2009 was a great year for Vance. He hit the Moto cross circut and this is his first trophy. He went from being the little 6th grader at school into the Big 7th grade. He's grown over an inch in 6 months. He is officially taller than mom and his feet are bigger than everyone's in the house but Dad. He loves doing crazy stuff with his hair and has a different style every few months. He turned 12 and now holds the priesthood. He is an awesome young man.
