Tim and Kate Anderson dot com

Hello all!

We have a ton to update on this post since it has been a while from our last post.

Things have been well in the Anderson household. Samson is a year and a half old and has been part of our family for a year now! He continues to be well behaved and no longer chews on any furniture. He doesn’t even need a leash when we let him out into our unfenced yard (most of the time). He tries to make as many friends as possible with the neighbor kids, but sometimes he can be intimidating because of his size.  Over 80 lbs!

The house is really coming together. It has been over a year since we moved in and time has really flown by. We got a dining room table for our front room and all of our rooms are furnished and functional… all except 1 that we have been using as storage. With summer approaching we’ve even done a little bit of flower planting and mulching. Ah the joys of home ownership.

We’ve been very blessed to have found a church that we very much enjoy. It is less than 5 minutes away from where we live and fits our personalities and worship style very well. We’ve been checking out a few different Sunday school groups and bible study classes, and in general just enjoying getting to meet new people.

Speaking of new people, we’ve enjoyed getting to build new friendships with some of our neighbors. Tim’s softball team has started back up and we’ve found a new board game that we enjoy playing whenever we get together with friends or family. It’s called ‘Ticket to Ride’ and if you are ever looking for a new game to purchase, we highly recommend it. It’s our new favorite.

We have some fun trips planned this year and had a couple of them already. We went to Washington DC to visit Tim’s sister and our brother-in-law, Kim and Luke. It was great because we were able to plan the trip when Tim’s brother, Ryan could come out too. The five of us explored the capitol city. We went on walking tours of  the national mall and Arlington National Cemetary.  We went to the Newseum and went to the Earth Day celebration on the National Lawn. One day we spent a day going around to different places and did a photo shoot with our brother-in-law, Luke, who is a wedding photographer and did some of the pictures from our wedding. (check out his stuff here )

We also took a brief trip down to Daytona and Cape Canaveral Florida with our Anderson parents to see the final launch of the Space Shuttle Atlantis. It was a very cool experience and the weather couldn’t have been nicer. We spent 3 days and had a BLAST :)

When we got back from DC we discovered a wonderful surprise…. WE’RE PREGNANT! We are 13 weeks, just out of the first trimester, and due December 30th. We have had two doctors appointments and everything is looking good.  We could not be more excited. Our room we have been using for storage is getting emptied and will soon be the baby’s room.

We hope this post finds everyone well and enjoying the summer. We are looking forward to spending the summer with family and friends and preparing for the arrival of the new member to our family.  Hopefully we will be better at posting this summer as we update on how things are going with the baby.
