The Anderson's Celebrate 8 Years of Being a Family


Chris and I decided this year that our anniversary is really a family occasion. It is the beginning of our family and as such, it is a day that belongs to ALL of the family...at least in part. So we decided to take the kids bowling and out to dinner. Going anywhere is an interesting experience with the kids, but they did pretty good.
here they all are watching someone bowl
this is how payton spent most of the bowling experience.

Here is the anderson family on their 8th anniversary!

afterwards we went out for some "chiney spicey chicken" as mykenzie called it.

Chris and I spent a few hours shopping for some new work clothes for him :)

What a wonderful way to celebrate the beginning of our family. We had a great time together and enjoyed being a family. I am so grateful for such great kids and a wonderful husband. I never would have guessed when we got married where we'd be in 8 years!

8 years already? That seems mathmatically impossible since I remember the day, (and exact moment--kitchen at brookview!) when you got engaged. I also remember trying to find the reception up in Richmond! Who knew some little old grandpa would be having his birthday celebration the same night, in a church too...crashed that one! (and not quietly either...oops! sorry gramps!)
