Birthday Dinner...

I haven't ever blogged about my brothers and sisters and they are a huge part of my life. So a couple of weeks ago we all met for dinner at Olive Garden, Mom and Dad decided since they won't be here for birthdays this year or actually the next 3 years, They bought us all dinner and we're calling it good for a few years. Brad and Aimee were even in town from St. George so all 7 of us and spouses were together, we had a great time. Thanks mom and dad for a fun night!
I got pictures of all of us, Starting oldest to youngest!

Mom and Dad- Soon to be Pres and Sis Anderson of the San Pablo Philippines Mission!
WE are sure going to miss you guys! But can't wait to come and visit!

Angie and Jim Wagstaff- Angie is my oldest sister and i totally admire her, whenever i need good ideas or someone to talk to, she is always there! She is an amazing mom of 6, and her kids are also amazing. Perfect examples for my kids to follow. Jim is also pretty great, we love you Wagstaff's

Brad and Aimee Anderson- These guys live in St. George and always have a place for us all to stay. We love to go down and visit them. My Brother Brad is currently serving as Bishop and is doing an amazing job. Aimee is also an amazing mom of 6, And there kids are so much fun. We miss seeing them so much but love it when we do get together. We love you guys, can't wait to see ya in a couple of weeks.

Jason and Heidi Anderson- Jason is the comedian of our family. We always have lots of laughs when he is around. His sweet wife Heidi is amazing. They have 5 beautiful kids, and are currently living in Kaysville. We love you guys.

Ted and Jen Anderson- People say that me and Ted are probably the most alike in looks. He is a total teaser, but that is what we love about him, you know your never safe when Ted is close by. Jen is from St. George and has been such a fun Sister in law. They have 4 kids, one girl and 3 boys whom Parley totally loves.

Justin and Emily Brown- Emily is my other sister, who i also totally look up to. She is an amazing mom, a perfect example to me of motherhood. Justin is currently serving as Stake President, and is doing an amazing job. He is an orthodontist in Farmington and is really good at it ( I know because i use to work for him). They have 4 beautiful girls who are so talented and can sing and dance like you wouldn't believe. WE love you browns!

Doug and Katie Anderson- Doug is the brother just above me, so we spent a lot of time growing up together, i rolled his 4 runner while he was on his mission and he still loves me! Katie is such a great sister in law and is always so helpful! They live just a few blocks from us, so Parley gets to play with his cousins often. Doug is a very hard worker, i have always thought this about him. He use to always leave me little notes, thanks doug for being a big brother! They have 3 little boys who are all boy! into balls and bugs (actually any kind of critter). They have such fun personalities. We love you guys!

My wonderful Husband! Travis is so amazing! love ya babe!

Happy St. Patty's day!!

Well, actually not such a happy st. paddy's day, we woke up this morning to 2 sick little boys, Brigham woke up at 4 am and was up til about 6, then Parley was up at 7:30, it kind of seemed like a long night. They both had fevers, runny noses, coughs etc. (i wonder if it is all that sucker sharing). My mom use to always make us a fun st.paddy's day breakfast before school, she would make green pancakes, and color the milk green, kind of gross, but she always knew how to make it fun for us. i didn't do that today but hope that i will when my kids are older. Anyways hope everyone has a happy day! And hopefully we will get healthy because parley is turning 2 on saturday! and noone likes a sick birthday boy!!

sneaky sucker...

I was folding clothes yesterday in the laundry room, Brigham was asleep and parley was playing with his trains. i heard Brigham start to cry but only for a minute so i figured he had gone back to sleep. Well i was wrong, i come down the hallway and see Parley leaning over brigham's bed feeding him a sucker. I laughed, took some pictures and then had to tell Parley that Brigham isn't old enough to have a sucker even though he was loving it. Hopefully the message got across, but i don't think it did because this morning Parley was feeding Brig some colored pencils!

Happy Birthday Travis!

As you can see March is a busy Birthday month for our family and we have only just begun. We have 3 sisters ,one brother, a grandpa and Parleys oh and a good friend, happy birthday heidi o!, whew! Anyways we celbrated travis's 27th on Friday the 7th! We went to Market street grill and then rented a movie. It was a fun night, Shupes watched the boys (what would we do without family close by). Then we came home and opened presents. He was a little spoiled this year, but its only because we love him, and i love to shop! He did get what he wanted though, some new golf clubs and golf bag. Then he got a life jacket, swimsuit, and shorts and t shirts! Shupes have a tradition of giving them a birthday sack every year,so i have started doing it too. We just get all of their favorite treats and put them in a sack. Travis was pretty funny opening his and pulled all these funny faces, so i had to post all the pictures. He just loves being on the Blog :)! Anyways, Travis is my very best friend and i have so much fun with him, i can't ever imagin life without him! He is the best husband, dad and friend! WE love you so much babe, happy birthday!!
