Just some random pictures…

As I was looking through my pictures I found a few that I haven’t posted about, so I thought I would just combine them all into one big post.  Here goes…

The night before they flew back to Hawaii, Jon’s brother and his family stayed the night with us.  We had his sister and her family over for dinner as well and got one last picture of all the Anderson Grandkids.  Not the best, but the best we could do! Henry looks excited!

Henry found my sisters old costume and tried it on.  It is for an eighteen month old.  He played puppy the whole day and added the goggles for some flare!

I just had to add another because it is too funny.

I got to go on a girls getaway to Salt Lake with my old roommates (minus one-we missed you Jen). We had a great time eating amazing food, staying in a beautiful hotel, swimming, shopping, exchanging “our favorite things” (thanks Kanani for the idea!), and just having a lot of fun together.  I am so grateful for good friends, and an amazing husband who encourages me to do stuff like this.

We ventured out on one of the “cleaner air” days and all Emma wanted to do was swing.

Henry got in on the action too.

We had a baby shower for my sister-in-law Rachel, but unfortunately I just took candid shots-none of which she would appreciate, so I just threw this cute one in of my sister-in-law Holly and I at the shower!

Henry found these sweet glasses that his Grandma and Grandpa Anderson gave him years ago.  Aren’t they the Best?

Emma found hers as well.  I love the hair in the morning when I leave braids in all night.  Beautiful.

Emma playing Henry’s guitar he got for his birthday. She is going to be a rocker!

I was on the phone for a while doing Relief Society stuff, when all the sudden I realized Emma was being very quiet and wasn’t watching the movie with Henry.  I went upstairs and this is where I found her! She had been into a bag of rolls and was sleeping on them.

As I was cleaning up the rolls, I noticed this stick of butter.   I am pretty sure as she got a little wrapper with her bites of butter! Yummy!

You really are catching up on your blogs! Henry is adorable in the puppy costume, he seriously seems like such a fun and creative kid! I love that Emma fell asleep on the rolls, at least she knows nothing goes better with bread then butter, Grandma will be proud!

Your pictures are so cute, the one of Emma in on the counter is hilarious, I'm glad you took a picture. Whenever they are quiet, you have to wonder "What are they doing?" I found Sadie marching around with the toilet plunger the other day--awesome.

I laughed so hard at Emma sleeping on the rolls! That is the best! What cute little people you have!

Thanks for the great laughs with the pictures of Emma and the story of the rolls and the butter. Mike and I both thought it was hilarious! It was fun seeing the cousins picture too with the twins. I'm so glad you are back and posting again. I missed your posts during the holidays but on the other hand it was fun to hang out in person :) Love you!

by the way did Jon tell you that Emma insisted on wearing her cute little pink sunglasses during the whole day of Kenton's wedding. In fact, I think she is in quite a few pics with her glasses on. It was actually quite adorable :)

We sure missed you - it wasn't the same. Thank goodness you are okay. I hope your kids didn't catch anything from Oscar. He was sick the entire time.
