Thanksgiving

This year we have so much to be thankful for--but don't we every year? Morgan is the biggest blessing that we received in 2008. She is such a sweet little girl. Her smile is perfect and her laugh is contagious. Morgan and Garrett are little buds and love to be next to each other--I hope their friendship lasts a lifetime. We flew up to Utah/Idaho to spend the holiday with our families. We had a great time. Garrett rode the 1920's fire truck in the Preston Festival of Lights parade with Ryan and Grandpa Mike. He went on a wagon ride with Grandpa Andersen and his boy cousins. He rode the battery-operated 4-wheeler with Brandt and Ethan--we miss them! He went swimming with Grandma Lottie and Hailey Bug at the hot springs. Morgan also went to the parade but had to watch from the sidelines. She looked adorable all bundled up--it is just as important to look good as well as stay warm. She got to spend a whole morning by herself with Grandma Andersen--a rare treat to spend time alone with grandma. She tormented Gavin (who is twice her size, but not age). She would chase him down with her super-speed crawl and he would cry. Ryan was able to get a ski day in. Both kids went to the movie with most of the Andersen crew--we took up more than one row. One more thing to be thankful for--Ohio State beat Michigan for the 5th time in a row. Hello!! Two whole graduating classes of seniors who don't know the sweet feeling of beating your arch enemy. Too bad maize and blue. Maybe you need to try a 3rd coach. Keep up the good work Tressel.
