Family and Friends





I reallllllly like him... Can you tell????
I married Gordon Lynn Anderson, from Layton, Utah. He's a wonderful man. He teaches school, too. He has 3 children, Chase (married to Lauren), Riley, and Libby. We were married in the Provo Temple, April 1, 2010. The reason we married that day was so Tyler could leave the MTC and attend our sealing. Tyler and Gordon's dad Newell were our witnesses.

Tyler Leaves for the Mission Field




Tyler left for the mission field MTC February 24, 2010. It was so hard to see him leave.. But yet sweet! He is now in the mission field, Vancouver Canada. He is speaking Spanish. Yahoo! He's wearing the yellow tie!

Tyler TRACKSTER





Tyler took 1st in Region 300 Hurddles. He started running them this year. This was his 5th race. Each time he races, he cuts his time down.

Tyler, Hayden, Dalton, and Aaron took 2nd in Region in the 4x400. They were in head until the very last. These boys will get'em next time!

Happy Mother's Day to me!









This weekend my kids were so awesome. Even when I'm a grouch, they still love me. I got to see the grand babies, and all my kids, except Danielle. We watched Brian Regan last night. My face hurt so bad from laughing. Leisha gave me a haircut, Lacee made me yummy chicken, Tyler planted my flowers, and Dave put up with us all staying at their house. To top it all off, we got to talk to Danielle today. At 4P.M. she started picking up the phone, because on her end there was no ringer. She sounds so great and happy. She still has her cute personality. She loves working with her companion. Yeah! Only 6 months left till I get to see her sweet face!

Brazilian Beauty




Who said missionaries can't be glamorous!!!Danielle is modeling her Christmas presents from me. Poor child. All the things I bought her had to be taken out of the boxes and even the wrapping paper so I could get it all in. She is doing so well and being so blessed to find people who want to listen to the message. She has been out a whole year now.

Snowy Travel

Tyler and I traveled home after Scott's wedding in the first part of the big snow for the year. On the video it looks like you can see, but the snow was swirling so bad it was hard to see the edge of the road. We took turns putting our windows down. I could flip my windshield wiper. We didn't want to stop for fear we'd get hit in the rear end. South of Panguitch, we came upon a car that led us to Orderville. We stopped in Orderville and knocked snow off the wheel wells. I'm not sure how the tires were turning. The ice on the wipers looked like baseball bats. It took us 6 hours to get from Richfield to Kanab. Even in my worries and fears Tyler cracked jokes and made the trip an adventure.

Danielle in Brazil

Danielle with her 2nd companion. She has now served with 5 missionaries that were going home soon. She calls it killing off companions.
A precious rose among the other flowers at the temple in Sao Paulo.

If you look ever so closely, you'll see a monkey. No, not Danielle, the one in the tree! LOL She said this is really rare to see in the city.


New members that she just loves.



Another family she loves to death. Everyone is so AWESOME!




Another baptism and says this young man has now recieved the priesthood. She's so happy!





She can't say enough good about all the Brazilian people. She loves them all.
Danielle called us on Christmas Day. It was the icing on the cake, the star on the tree!

Christmas and New Year Fun

Ever try to find a tall beautiful blonde in a mess of packages. Look closely, she's there. Lacee stretches out for a long winter's nap.

Shalyce loved the shopping cart aunt Leisha gave her. She was all business, driving things around during the day.


Leisha loved her new hat I gave her. Look how surprised to see what she picked out a month ago. Okay, she didn't know exactly which one I was getting, but close.



Never mind the presents,Leisha just wanted a piece of candy and she's happy! Whee I could have saved some money if I'd have only known!








Leisha gottem' too, not sure if she's into Disney anymore!!!Ha






Leisha had an idea to write a message to Danielle in the snow Christmas Eve. We had fun, but our artwork was covered up with 4 or more inches by morning.







DW Danielle Whittaker is loved even though she's far away in Brazil.








Snowforts work better if you don't have powder.









Corbin works at making the fort higher.










Dave worked and worked to make his boy a slide. Corbin had fun. Dave, Tyler and Corbin threw snowballs. Corbin lost. I assume he'll be wiser as he grows older and take care of the old boys! Fun Fun!

Three handsome boys of the family!

Dave will do anything to show his boy some fun.






We used a windshield shade for a sled. Okay it didn't work so good, but when you're a redneck you use what you got! It wasn't that impressive to Corbin.
