Andreason Update

These are some pictures from the Scare Crow Festival that the Boy's Ranch puts on. We go ever year and the kids just love it. This year Garrett's friend Lilly came with us and as always Brooks brought his best friend McKay along. They had this bungee trampoline thing that the kids wanted to go on so as we are waiting and watching the other kids Tatum is getting a little more quiet and starting to look like a deer in the headlights. So when they hooked her up to the harness I really thought she was just going to do little bounces. You should have seen how high she got and she was laughing a giggling the whole time. Thank you Lana for the trampoline because she just went crazy. When Garrett and Lilly got on the were being so timid and I was laughing with Evets saying "You can tell which kids jump on tramps all the time". So afterwards we met up with Mckay and Brooks and they were way stoked about jumping on it. They waited in line for about twenty minutes and each of them were talking up how many flips they were going to do. When the turn in front of them was almost done one of the kids bungee cords came off, so they had to close down the tramps for a while. Brooks got a little misty when he found out we had to go home before they had it working again. So hopefully next year they will have it again. Brooks and Mckay went to the top of this tower thing and I told him to lean over so I could take his picture and as you can see he has a little of his mom in him and wouldn't lean out very far (it was pretty dang high). We are looking forward to seeing Larry, Michelle, Kailey, Chelsea, Heather and Paige in just two days. Lana I just barely finished my Florida scrapbook and I'll let you know how you can look at it on line, the beach pictures turned out great.

Update

Hello everyone!

Thanks Bethany for taking care of all that stuff with the blog I really appreciate it.

It looks like Brooks had a great time at the RSL game! He is so much fun! I love that we get to sit by him in church and he is becoming quite the artist. He and my mom draw all kinds of wonderful things. I hope that he continues to develop this talent!

I hope things are going good for everyone else in the family! It sounds like work has picked back up for you Bethany, that is great! How is Jake doing with school? How is the weather down there? Did you get that job Meg? How are things going with the house sitting? How is Stewart? (hope I didn't spell that wrong)

Just a quick update on me, I am working busy as usual. We will be losing one of my employee's in a few weeks so it's back to hiring a new person and getting them trained! I can only hope we get someone as nice and as lovely as my newest employee Amanda, she is the nicest and the most attentive person here! She is always listening to patients and trying to figure out what they need so they don't get transferred over and over and so they end up in the right place.

I am still in Young Women's and I am thoroughly enjoying myself. Beside some tension between a couple of the leaders we are doing relatively well. My girls are wonderful and always are trying to get things done and are really hard workers.

On the family front, my mom and dad are great! They just celebrated their 35th wedding aniversary on Sunday November 1st. My dad just got back from a hunting trip in North Dakota. Timmy is working hard at his job and also beef's up golf cart, snowmobiles, 4 wheelers etc... on the side and he is busy doing that 3-4 nights a week. Jonathan, Evets, Garrett, and Clara are all doing well! We had got to watch the kids for that last couple of weekends and for the next couple too! I thinks it's a great opportunity to get to know them better and bond with them! Nathan, Tasha, Whitney, Hunter, Taylor are all doing ok. Hunter and Taylor where sick for Halloween so that is sad. When I talked to Tasha last night she said that they are doing ok, not great, but not too bad. Whitney has become a voracious reader and I love to hear what she is reading as it is a great opportunity to learn about other great books that are out there. She has also really gotten great on the piano, when she had lessons at our house I love to sit in on them because they are great and she is really becoming quite accomplished! Hunter is just finishing up football, and Taylor finished up his soccer a couple of weeks ago. I am not sure if Whitney is done with soccer yet or not?

Well I have to get back to work! Love you all
