Merry Christmas 2010

Just wanted to wish you all a very Merry Christmas!


Christmas Letter 2010

Family and Friends,
‘Tis that time, when the year end if fast approaching and we get to reflect on the year that has been 2010! It has been an eventful year for us, with lots of changes. Cory graduated in May and accepted a job and started the Management Training Program with Sherwin Williams that same week. We were relocated to Cheyenne, WY and after being there for 4 months and having 13 different positions open up for placement, they chose to place us back in ...... ! Apparently ...... is not done with us after 7 years so we are back in the thick of it. Cory is now the Assistant Manager and they want him on to bigger and better things in a year – 18months. He is enjoying it and never thought he would be in the business of paint but we have been blessed! Kathryn has been busy with the boys, and sharing Juice Plus+ through workshops and just started back at work part-time at the bank she previously worked at before Cade was born, and she is really enjoying it. She has just fit right back in and they have so appreciated her help and the fact that she did not have to be trained. It was a true blessing for us that Cory’s schedule is able to work around Kathryn’s so he is home with the boys when she is not. The boys are doing great! Cade just turned 4 and is a ball of fun. He has such spunk and personality and we just enjoy him so much. He tries hard to be a good boy and enjoys wrestling, creating whether with blocks, crafts or drawing and telling you long stories and loves primary. Ethan is 20 months and is just a sweetheart. He melts everyone’s heart with those big blue eyes. He is really starting to talk and loves to play whatever Cade is playing and enjoys music, singing and reading books. The boys both adore dogs and would love a puppy for Christmas, but I think, not this Christmas! We have been spoilt again this year with visits from Kathryn’s family. Kathryn’s sister Annette and brother-in-law Ronnie came at the perfect time and Kathryn had no clue (Cory was in on the secret). Then we were fortunate to have her mom came in October followed by her sister Allison. We were so grateful and enjoyed all their company, fun and laughs. This year has been one of ups and downs but we are thankful for each other, our families and their continued love, support and prayers and are so thankful for the peace the gospel brings to our lives.
May your Christmas season reflect all the happiness of the year that was, and that the new year holds great opportunities, the best of health and the happiest of blessings!
All our love, Cory, Kathryn, Cade, Ethan Anderson
