Swimming

These life jackets were recommended to us by lots of moms. We finally got one and tested it out at Grandma and Grandpa's pool. At first Anders wasn't so sure.

By the time we were done swimming we were all impressed. Anders could swim on his own and even got brave enough to "jump" (slide off the side) into the pool.

94...94....90,90,90,90....94

(Happy Birthday high five.)

Grandma Angie turned 94 a couple days after Anders turned 2 so we got to see all the cousins again at her birthday party. We basically took over the main floor of Millstream Commons for an Anderson family pot luck.

These puppies were really fun when they weren't causing problems.

Trying to get a picture with some of the great grandkids.  She has 21 total!

Truck Party

We celebrated Anders' second birthday with a truck party. Check out the awesome cake Uncle Ken made! Anders had lots of fun playing with his cousins.  Two year old parties are easy, just pull out all the toys and let the kids go nuts.  Anders, you are one lucky spoiled loved little boy!

Birthday Make-up

We were able to make it to the zoo to celebrate with Grandma Jane and Grandma Dorla the next day. I was so happy to have them there because Anders ran the whole day!

It's baby farm animal time at the zoo so we braved the cold and snow to feed some goats, ride on a tractor and oooh and awwww over some tiny pigs.  Anders was mostly impressed with the mud. Somehow it didn't show up in the pictures but he was covered by the time we were done.

I'm perfectly content to hide behind the camera but because I only have a handful of pictures of my dad I occasionally try and put myself in a picture. It often goes something like this :)
