Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!

Well, Team Anders is off to see the family in Minneapolis, MN - yep, 0600 flight with a 7-month old and a Yorkie (yikes!!). We hope you all have a fabulous day and get to spend it just the way you want...be it with friends, family, or scouring the internet for Black Friday's best deals! Check out our ghetto "1st Thanksgiving" photo shoot.

Thanks for holding that blanket up
in the background, Jace. I see some
potential there, yet!




The fan really adds something to this shot...

Always eating something, aren't they??
We have so much to be thankful for today but I thought I'd mix it up and share 10 random, off the top of my head, things I'm currently thankful for...here goes:

1. Febreze (long story, but yesterday was not OK)
2. Defense Acquisition University - without the numerous online learning classes it delivered me over the past two weeks I literally would have been back to doing this again:
2dLt Tomlinson hard at work
 circa 2002
3. DVR - "You know you love me...xoxo..." can you complete the rest of that quote? If so, I heart you
4. Polar seltzer water - discovered it while preggers and I continue to pound at least two cans per night
5. Dove dark chocolate - no commentary necessary
6. Our babysitter Sara - so nice to have someone here to watch Easton so we can have date nights!
7. My iPhone - really, so thankful for the addiction...
8. Our underground parking garage - it's getting coooold here at night :(
9. Skype - how fun to share a glass of wine with a friend in an entirely different state?
10. Disposable 1x wear contact lenses - um, gracias for the Rx doc...these things are the bomb!


Alright now that you all are probably just shaking your heads and wondering if that did, indeed, just happen let me close by saying that Jace and I are so very thankful for a happy and healthy marriage, a super incredible little boy and always grateful for our friends and family who provide us so much love and support each day!! Have a very happy Thanksgiving everyone - Love you! :)

Introducing...Easton Douglas Anders!

Easton Douglas Anders - 3 days old More pictures @ http://www.our365.com/ He's here, he's here!!!  Jace and I welcomed our son Easton Douglas to the world this past Saturday, April 16th at 4:22 PM and we couldn't be more proud.  It was an awesome experience...not so much in the "incredibly cool, can't wait to do it again" context but genuinely in AWE of how mother nature and modern medicine can work together to ease a woman and efficiently deliver a baby.  Before I tell you all a little bit about our story (again, no worries, I won't blast all the nitty gritty across your screen) I must say a HUGE thank you to our staff at Winchester Hospital.  Though I know not a single of of those doctors, nurses and other staff members will read this they will forever hold a special place in our hearts for the outstanding service and love they showed all three of us!!  They exceeded any expectations Jace and I might have had and just had to throw that out there. ...

My Bachelorette Weekend

Jace has been in MN since Thursday braving the cold with  Team Franchise at the 2011 US Pond Hockey Championship .  The team made it to Sunday again this year but unfortunately couldn't get by the "Pulled Hammies" this morning to advance to the finals.  Better luck next year, boys! :( So, since he's been gone I've been catching up on projects around the homestead since it's been so damn cold outside.  On Thursday night I scanned in about 80 old family photos that I had received over the years from my Aunt Kathleen.  I decided to do this because I'm building an online baby book for mini-Ma$e and you can add pictures - thought it'd be fun to add some old family photos.  Anyway, I won't overload you with too many but here are some of my favorites...the rest can be viewed here . Moving on... Friday started off with another snowstorm - excellent.  Hanscom was open for business...well, that is, for everyone ex...

Trunk or Treat 2013

We just got back from Trunk or Treating at Easton's daycare...how flippin' fun (and pretty roarsome as Henry Hugglemonster would say). Mr. Blondie waiting for the trunk or treating to begin! Still figuring out that the chocolate must be unwrapped first. No hurry to explain :) Homeless Lion with a Market Basket bag. Score one for the parents. Some pretty creative pumpkins!
