Welcome Home Elder Anderson!

Okay so I am way behind in my posting, but I am going to try and get caught up in the next few days.  Jon’s youngest sibling Kenton got home from his mission to Portugal and we met him at the airport.IMG_1841

Jon with three of his brothers-Joe, Kenton and Dave-Matt is missing.

So I didn’t want this to be the first picture that popped up, but this was on our way to the airport.  It was an emergency!

Joe patiently waiting for Kenton’s arrival-Joe announced the next day that he is going to be a Daddy-Congrats!!IMG_1829

Henry did us proud-He ran right up to Kenton and gave him a big welcome home hug.  He is so excited that Kenton is “home from his trip”IMG_1846

The proud parents.  This is their eighth child out of eight to serve a full time mission. IMG_1855

The whole crew.  Everyone in the family is here except Jon’s brother Matt and his family in Hawaii.  It was really fun to all be together.

What a fun uncle.  Since Kenton is the youngest Henry gets called his name quite often.  They are meant to be friends I guess.

Kenton meet Emma, Emma meet Kenton.IMG_1907

The next day, Grandpa and Henry caught some fish in the pong.  Yeah that is Henry kissing the fish…Yuck!IMG_1911

Oh yea now here he is eating it…Yum!IMG_1932

Pretty sure it is dead now-after all the man-handling-interesting.

And this is how missionaries feel after just getting home.  We are glad to have you back Kenton!

I almost peed my pants at the emergency peeing stop! Ironic I know, but seriously could Henry be any cuter? Even if he does eat fish. How are you doing by the way? Need a lunch date? Maybe a girls night out!!

You have some great pictures for when your kids are teenagers and invite their girlfriend or boyfriend over! So funny!

I showed Oscar the pictures of the fish and he kept telling Henry not to eat the fish - we both got a kick out of that picture.

We loved to see that Addison isn't the only one to kiss animals...eating them, well, we'll leave that to our wonderful nephew! What a hoot!

Love you,

Dana

Eight out of eight, not a bad number. Kurt remembers when Kenton when was Gavin's age (2). Love your pics.
