WOW!!!!

A lot has happened in the last two weeks.  Our annual Music Booster See's Candies order was a huge part of it.  Just crazy problems this year!!  Between a student accusing me of stealing $21 from her order (long, crazy story) to continued damaged items in shipments - I am seriously thinking next year will be the last year for See's Candies.  Yes, have to think of this as a great fundraiser for the students.  But man, it was such a time sucker this year.

But I have to say the biggest and BEST thing that happened was this!

 My Birthday present AND mine and Rob's Christmas present!!!  Robert was here for 8 days!!!!  A total and complete surprise from our kids.  I can't believe they kept it a secret.  They are so awesome!!  They got double the reaction since Rob wasn't home when Robert arrived.

Our hearts are sooooooo full!!!

I had snow for MY birthday!!

And school was canceled!  Winter break started a day early.

The time with Robert went so fast!! 

Christmas Morning!!!

And an Anderson Family FIRST - this was done in ONE shot!

And we got to Skype with this little love:

LIFE IS GOOD!!!

What a milestone!!!

20 years!  We've been in Washington State for 20 years THIS week!  How did that happen so fast?  After 20 years Lynden is FINALLY home.  But it took quite a few years to get to that point.  There are 3 things I miss the most - friends, sunshine and Disneyland.

In fact, 20 years ago, on December 9, 1993 we went to Disneyland for one last time until we don't know when celebration.  Would you just look at our little kiddos.

So itty bitty little and Robert being the protector of his sisters.  Looking at this picture just warms my heart.
