While I'm playing catch up...

Can't get enough of Anda? Check out our YouTube channel here. New videos every ten months or so!

Saturday

Saturday morning at the Carters' started early and hard. But it ended with wheelbarrow rides once the chores were done.

Later, Anda's cousins came over to spend the night. I took the girls to the Harvest Hurrah in Spanish Fork. It looked like fun on the website, with face-in-holes,

a hayride,

and even caricatures.

We had a good time, but it was much smaller than I had been led to believe. Tylar was underwhelmed.

The boys stayed home and played video games, which doesn't make for fun photography. Bed time bath time impromptu splash fights do, however, so we will end with that.

'Tis the Season

Dan is starting her young. (Sorry, Dad--his passion outweighs mine, but I do root for the 'skins when they're playing.)

The merchandise doesn't seem to be helping either team so far this season, but pigtails are always cute.

And Dan can at least be proud that Anda can correctly answer "Where's the football game?"

Family Family Family

Well we survived the move. We are now Springvillagers and love our new home. You should come visit some time.

Anda handled the move pretty well. She got very little attention for a couple of weeks while we were busy, but she found new toys to entertain herself with.

(Don't worry--it's brand new)

After getting so little attention, we figured she deserved a couple of weeks of nonstop family visits. My family came out first to bring my youngest sister to BYU. As usual, I brought my camera everywhere and took very few pictures.

But we got frozen yogurt...

...enjoyed sunsets...

...danced and sang...

...visited even more family...

(I think Anda's pose here is very descriptive)

...and made Sunday dinner with frozen cheese. Pro-tip: this did not work.

Then Dan's parents came out. They hadn't seen Anda since her blessing, so it was great for us all to get together again. Dan and his dad spent most of their time doing projects on the house. That may be its own future blog post. I took even fewer pictures of their visit, but in my defense, they were so busy that they were hardly around anyway!

This is the only one I took of Heather's family coming down to visit, but I need to note here that Anda's cousins are her favorite favorite favorite people. I never see her as happy as she is when these kids are around.
