Caden as a third grader!

  This post is from Caden himself (typing and all)!  He wanted to write about school and what he does in his day:


Hi  my  name  is  Caden! I  am  a  third  grader  and  I  live  in  Rocklin, California. I  do  many  things  in  school  like science  and  math. These  pictures  and  sentences  might  help  you  figure  out  what  else  I  do  in  school:

Wallace

Everyone is pretty much aware my beloved cat Wallace died recently. I love Wallace so much and he was such an important part of our family. I had him longer than the kids and Nate, 13 years ;)! He was possibly the sweetest, most loving cat you could meet. People who hated cats would come to my house and like Wallace. He was just that kinda guy. I try to comfort myself by reminding myself how much Wallace gave and how wonderful he was. His love was unconditional and he gave it even if I didn't want it ;). Wallace brought so much joy and love to our lives. I have learned some humans live a lifetime and still don't accomplish what Wallace did in his all too brief 13 years. I thought these were sweet pictures to share about the moments of my life Wallace has been a part of.

On August 1, we took family pictures in Sacramento at a pretty park Kelly knew of.  Kelly had a friend come and take the pictures, and she got some really great ones.

Summer 2009

This summer my uncle's family came down from Oregon and instead of our annual camping trip, we stayed in the bay area.  Here are some highlights of a baseball game I was drug to... I mean, we all went to and enjoyed:
