I love my nephews!

They love cars. I remember my dad sitting me in his lap and letting me "drive".
Will is showing off his tummy. He is getting so tall and skinny and is truly becoming a big boy.

Logan was singing and dancing. This photo caught him at the end of a very enthusiastic clap.

Below is a video of Logan participating in "If You're Happy and You Know It...". Make sure you catch the stomping and "Amen!" at the end. :)

I love Spring!

Dogwoods!

Tulips!


Growth!



Renewal!

"I feel lucky because..."

At work, we had a St. Patty's themed event where the patients were invited to write down in what ways they felt "lucky" or blessed. You can't help but appreciate and hopefully learn from what they wrote in their own aged penmanship.


The "I am tired" and "I am old" lines cracked me up, but are sweet at the same time. I love my old people!

Cheese!


Logan hammin' it up for the camera,

while his brother, Will, was being anti-social.

Earth Day at NEAHRC

At work, we decided to celebrate Earth Day a little early. The patients and therapists worked together to create this little masterpiece. I think it turned out great! We learned that trying to teach the much older generations about recycling tends to go in one ear and out the other, unless of course a particular person is hard of hearing and then the information never enters at all. I love my old people! They did plant a multitude of tomatoes and wild flowers, which did go over well and is turning out to be a success, as it was therapeutically beneficial and they are starting to grow. :)

What are the rules?


I'm clearly not use to this beautiful treasure yet. I mean, are there rules attached?

In flight!




We were graced with the presence of Mr. Crane while sitting in the park in Greenville. It was an awesome sight!


The Proposal

Upon waking on March 7, 2009 in Atlanta and seeing cloudy skies and drizzle, my excitement faltered for only a moment. Matthew and I were heading to Greenville today and the weather website promised sunshine and 10 degrees warmer than the present location. Greenville is a special city for the two of us, since he lived in Charlotte and I was in Atlanta, the midway point in SC was/is important and has played a key role in the growth of our relationship. Well, yesterday, upon arriving at one of our favorite parks in the city, Matthew produced a chronological photo album containing our history through photos, verses and poems, starting with keeping our focus on the Lord and ending with an empty page where he wanted to add photos from the day. And of course, his plan was for the photos to be of our engagement! Yes, he asked me to marry him, and I answered, "Yes, I will."
We later dined at one of our favorite spots, Addy's, a Dutch restaurant, which we both highly recommend.


Nice, cozy ambience. Matthew pointed out we should get engaged more often because people gave us free stuff. :)

And the future Mr. and Mrs. Matthew Keith Anderson.




Figure out what is different.


Quite obviously, both these photos differ in many ways, but I think you know what I'm getting at here. :)
