Pictures from Thanksgiving


We had many visitors for Thanksgiving weekend. Unfortunately, Will and I spent so much time running around the house, that we didn't get the camera out often enough.


This is actually a few days before everyone arrived, but explains why all of his Aunts and Uncles voted Anders mostly likely to have the first broken bone amongst the cousins.


The kid has no fear - in fact last night shortly before getting ready for bed, he wanted to look in his fish tank so I put him up on the chair that he was patting. He then wanted something up on top of his fish tank and I wouldn't get it for him, so he climbed up on the arm of the chair in order to reach the wanted item.


Anders got to ride on Uncle Rob's shoulders while at Como Zoo.


The obligatory picture showing how tricky it is to get so many people to look at the camera at once. Carrie looks cute though!


Anders also likes to wear hats around the house. This one was made by his Aunt Betsy last year.


Another hat - this one was given to him by my friend Michele last year. I'm wondering if he is going to be one of those guys that wears stocking caps all of the time...


This was taken after everyone was gone. If you click on the picture it should get larger and you can see that Anders is fixing the locomotive. His dad is right next to him trying to fix the dehumidifier. Anders spent quite a bit of time fixing this toy yesterday. He also thought it might work on it a bit tonight possibly as a stall tactic right before bed.

It was very nice to have everyone here all weekend, hope everyone had a great weekend!

No time to blog

We went to IA this weekend. Got back late last night and I had an audit today and need to pack to go to California for the rest of the week. Other than the Hawkeyes losing and losing their QB, it was a great weekend. We celebrated Pete and Carrie's birthdays and enjoyed some time outside.
