Halloween Trunk or Treat

At the ward Trunk or Treat, Luke got maybe one candy, a package of skittles, and got to jump into the back of a truck with the MacDonnell's. He had a ton of fun and was completely satisfied with his "loot".

Jacob is of age (last month)

Jacob's baptism day.
Grandma and Grandpa Timothy and Grandma and Grandpa Andersen were all able to come!

Some of the things in San Francisco

In or Out

Every time Troy goes to California, he picks up the latest version of the In and Out burger tee shirt. This was our first order of business to take care of on our trip to San Francisco. (We ate as well.)

Company Congratulations to Troy

Everyone



We are very pleased to announce that Troy Andersen has received his CMB designation. This is a tremendous accomplishment. There are only around 1,000 people in the MBA that have received this designation. This is great for the Company resume and client visits. Those active in mortgage banking and in the MBAA know how hard it is to achieve. Everyone should take time to congratulate Troy on this accomplishment.

Refreshing morning

It was 51 degrees while I was picking Taylor from Seminary this morning and then taking him and Emma to school. They both were stunned at how cold it was as I paused to breathe in the almost crisp feeling of the air. Not a bad trade off for being awake.
I ended up taking Lucas to the park in Irving. It was so gorgeous out. I wish I would have worn better shoes. If I can figure out how to send my pictures from my phone to the computer, I have one of him singing wheeeeee on the swing. Half of the time we were there, he was chasing birds or the rocks he would throw. He squeezed in chatting with a grandma that was walking on the park path (mostly about his rock)and the park mowers. I walked around with him and enjoyed the beauty of summer,the chance to be outside watching a player at work and not having to be somewhere soon.
I have had moments when I dreaded going to the park. As I think about it, it was because I was either pregnant, pressed for time, or too hot. I am so glad we had this fun today, and that he is taking a nap so I can. . .do stuff like this.
