Can you hear me sigh!

We attempted, and attempted is the operative word here.......to get a family picture taken this Christmas. We set a time, we planned, we even smiled. This one was the best one.....I don't want to replace the one at the top of this blog, but as you can see we have added a few people to our family! I should publish all of them. They are pretty funny, we are not a family that does great pictures.
How come it is me that is hiding this time. Oh well, maybe when Wes and Dana get married we can try again.

Four Generations

Grandpa Anderson joined us for Christmas Festivities this year. It was fun to have him join us.
He especially seemed to enjoy the great grand kids when they came over. We took the opportunity to have 4 generation pictures taken.
Here are the Girls with the Grandpas.
Clyde, Nora, Holly, Mia, Andy and Sara
Here are the boys!
Clyde, Kyle, Brad and Andy

My brother Andy

(I think I found the picture you were talking about...)
I have been putting off posting this trying to find a really good picture, I can picture the picture, but can't seem to find it. It is a picture of Andy, with his brother Andy, aka, Gordon and Myron. It was taken at Wanda's 80th birthday party. Andy's brother Myron passed away suddenly on Sunday. We had just seen him at Wanda's (Andy's Mom) funeral last month. He was complaining of some back pain, and we all teased him about playing to much golf. When I first met Myron, my first thought was...Wow what a handsome man. Then I took another look at the brother I was marrying and realized that they looked alike, Myron was just 10 years older. So I knew that my Andy was going to age beautifully. His eyes twinkled when he smiled, and I never really knew for sure when he was teasing. I loved the clothes he wore, they were never traditional, but always classy. I will be careful this weekend not to introduce myself as Andy's wife, in Utah I am Gordon's wife. We will miss our brother Myron, Andy.

It's Official

Wesley is engaged! Wesley surprised Dana by going up to Idaho (where she is attending school), and popping the question and giving her a "sparkly". The plans are for a wedding in July. Dana came down and spend Christmas with us, and she is still willing to marry Wes. We didn't scare her off. We are excited about Dana joining our family, and looking forward to the coming Wedding.
