AS OF LATE.....

WHITNEY:
It seems like a lot has changed in just the last couple of weeks. I started my new job at the hospital as a patient financial specialist. So far it's been great...I just have to get used to full time hours all over again. But we feel so blessed because I was able to start this job a week after Cory was laid off from the BLM. We 
really weren't sure how we were going to pay all of our bills, but our prayers were answered. 
CORY:
Cory is still going to school full time and then at night he goes and rides some horses for a man in our ward. It's so nice that he has been able to go and ride and on the weekends he has started elk hunting with his brother Cody. Those were the things that we missed SO much when we lived in Utah. 
COPPER:
Copper is all grown up. She's no longer a puppy but I refuse to believe it. She is completely house trained and we don't know what we did without her. It snowed here today and that was the first time she's ever seen  snow. So when Cor took her potty she started running around like crazy and forgot the reason why they were out there. She's a silly dog but we love her lots.
BABY ANDERSON:
Our little peanut is just growing away. I have started to get a little baby bump. It's been hard to tell if it's really a baby bump or if I'm just bloated. Ha Ha I haven't had hardly any morning sickness at all and next week I will be in my second trimester. Woo Hoo! We are getting closer to finding out if our little one is a he or a she! We can't wait!
THE MR. & MRS.
This is kind of old news but Cory & I got our first official church callings a couple months back. Cory is a counselor in Young Men's and I am a Primary teacher (5 year olds). Cor really likes getting to know the young men and I get to teach my niece Savanna's class. There are only 3 kids in my class, 2 boys (Milo & Jesse) & 1 girls (Savanna). And some Sundays...it's an adventure. Ha Ha We've both really enjoyed our callings and we love our ward. I personally LOVE having our family in our ward too. 

Well that's the Anderson's as of late. :]

Baby Anderson...

Cory & I are SO excited to announce that we're expecting on May 4th, 2013. We just couldn't hold it in any longer. We already told all of our close family & friends, but couldn't wait to tell EVERYONE!  
Our Baby Story (so far):
After we moved to Montana we decided that we were ready to start our little family. I was more than excited because anyone that knows me, knows that all I've ever wanted is to be a mom! So even though it was only a couple months I was getting very discouraged with negative pregnancy tests. Until one day I was home alone and got this overwhelming feeling that I needed to go take another test. Before I read the test I prepared myself for disappointment. But this time it was positive! So of course I just started running around the house in happy tears. Copper thought I'd gone mad! Ha Ha Then I stopped. What IF the test is wrong?!?! So me & Copper immediately got in the car and bought two more tests and they both ended up being positive. I couldn't wait for Cory to get home to tell him. He was SO happy! We really couldn't be any happier. Now we patiently wait for our bundle of joy to make his or her appearance in this world. We love you already Baby Anderson. <3

A Wedding & Birthday......

A couple of weekends ago we took a trip to American Fork, Utah for Cory's cousin's (Sydnie) wedding. It happened to fall on Cory's birthday so we had a lot of celebrating to do! 

We left Dillon on Thursday and stayed the night with my parents in Grace. When we got there Cory walked into a sign Presleigh made for him!

She also made him a money jar out of a mason jar and she made him a football cake with his favorite color! She was SO excited for him to see everything she had made for him. She made his day! She sure loves her Uncle Cory!

The next morning we headed for Utah. We made a quick pit stop in Logan to have lunch with our good friends Chelsea and Auston at Olive Garden. It was great to see them and catch up. After that we were off to American Fork. We were able to have Jodi's kids for the weekend so we got to stop and pick them up! We were all very excited to see them. Once we got down there I headed off to Sydnie's bridal shower at Goodwood and Cory stayed at Sheri's and hung out with the guys. 

That night we stayed at Randy and Lucy's and the next morning we headed to the sealing. It was absolutely amazing! Then we went to the luncheon that was catered by Chick Fil A. It was really good! In between all of the wedding excitement the Anderson family snuck away to have pie and cake-icecream for Cory's 26th Birthday! Later that night we headed back to the reception and it was BEAUTIFUL! It was so nice being able to be a part of such a wonderful day and celebrate my amazing husbands birthday!

LaBoR DaY WeEkeNd 2012...

This past weekend was the huge Dillon Labor Day weekend! It was so fun living up here and getting to go to  the fair instead of just visiting for a couple days. Cory was able to enter in the team branding. It was great watching him! We also went to the rodeo, watched the team roping, went to the parade, and went to the Rodney Atkins concert. I love getting to spend time with our family in good old Dillon, Montana. :]

Yup, we're this cool

aLmOsT FoRgoT.....

I realized today that I forgot to upload my pictures from when me and Cory went to Idaho for a visit. It was so much fun to get to spend more than just a day with everyone. We went down over fair week and got to watch my dad, brothers, and their wives team brand. We also got to hang out with Presleigh a ton. We had so much fun & LOVE getting to spend time with our family. Now...get ready for a lot of pictures. :]
