Makenzie's 13th Birthday!!!

We started the day by taking Makenzie to her favorite restaurant at P.F. Chang's

Mom & Makenzie headed to the salon for a new hairstyle and got her nails done!!!

Anxiously waiting to open gifts

How great it is to finally be a teenager!!!

Makenzie's favorite Tres Leches cake

Disneyland Trip!!!!

Ryan had a trip with work to California, so we decided to give the kids a gift of going along with him for a late Christmas present.  We spent 3 days at Disneyland and California Adventure.  We had a great time being together as a family, which can be few and far between these days with Ryan's heavy travel schedule. 

How did I get stuck riding the California Screamer!!

Ryan decided that KenaDee could not have a driver's license for a very long time!!!  I'm pretty sure he had whiplash afterwords.

Corbijn enjoyed all the great things he could touch!

The kids are in Jail!

Look at that face!!!

Ryan's fun trip to New Orleans

The day after New Year's Ryan, and three of his good friends from Parker went to New Orleans for the Utah vs. Alabama Bowl game.  They had alot of fun! I'm pretty sure they are the only 4 guys in our ward that are Utah fans!  GO UTES!

KenaDee Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel Solo

This year for the holiday's, KenaDee performed in the School Choir.  Here is a snippet of her singing away during Dreidel, Dreidel, Dreidel.

Christin and Ryan Ride and Strumming in Style

Christmas 2008 brought a new toy to the Anderson household.  

Ryan's job offered up a grand nugget if he hit a big stretch goal with his account in 2008.  As promised, they delivered.  Christin was given the choice and she decided to go for fun.  Now taking up residency at the Anderson house is a brand new Mercedes G Wagon.  It is a beautiful car and more than we ever deserved.  

Thanks PC and Bru!!!!

Christin also delivered to Ryan a life long dream....his very own guitar and amp.  Now it is up to Ryan to learn and have fun, probably more of the later.

Christmas Day 2008

As usual, tons of fun this Christmas morning.  As a family tradition, we sit down and split out the presents while we watch each other open them up.  The family is getting bigger, the in between time is getting longer and we enjoy the gift giving longer as well.  Here are a few pictures from this morning.  

Merry Christmas and have a great day.

Halloween was so much fun!  We spent the evening with our good friends the Williams and the Auernigs.

Ryan decided to go as Janet Reno!  Justin and Brian couldn't keep their hands off of him!

Our first snowfall happened the day after Thanksgiving.  Mikael and KenaDee spent hours creating our family in snowmen!

Corbijn has been our greatest blessing this year.  He is changing everyday and always makes us laugh!  He rolls everywhere and the past few days he has gotten up on his knees ready to start crawling at any moment.  He loves to hang out with his Dad!  Ryan always plays with him and tickles him.  He laughs when Ryan just looks at him!  He is spoiled by everyone constantly.  When Ryan is traveling and the kids are at school he gets bored!  I guess I don't entertain like everyone else.
