Andrew the Builder

This past weekend I was honing my construction skills by helping Daddy.

We are replacing the floor in our kitchen and I helped to pound in some nails. One of my favorite words is "hammer" which sounds like "hamm-oo".
We also got this fun kit to make a stool from Home Depot. I like doing projects with my Daddy!

North Dakota Trip

A few weeks ago I traveled to Fargo, North Dakota for Luke Hanson's baptism. My parents are his godparents:

After the baptism, mommy & me drove up to see Grandma & Grandpa in Grafton. Here's a picture of me being silly in Grandpa's hat & gloves!

New Year's 2008 in the Smoky Mountains with the Evens Family

After Christmas we flew to Knoxville, Tennessee to spend a week with the whole Evens family in the Smoky Mountains. We had so much fun!

Cousin Julia and I had such a fun week spending time together...

Just the boys...
Here's a picture of the whole group in front of our cabin. Thanks Grandma & Grandpa!

Merry Christmas

Andrew's First Birthday Party!

Hey Everyone!!
2 weeks ago (November 3rd) I celebrated my very first birthday with my family and friends.
I really loved being the center of attention.

Look at this neat cake that Mommy made for me...it's shaped like a fire truck...my favorite!
My parents got me this cool Radio Flyer rocket for my birthday! It's fun to ride on but I also like walking behind it and pushing it all over the house. I've already put a few dings in the woodwork...Daddy doesn't love that part! And as I just learned to say... "uh-oh!!"
Opening presents was so much fun. I can't believe all of the neat stuff I got! I just love all of my new toys and clothes...thanks everyone!
I wasn't too sure about the cake though. I'm kind of a neat eater and still like to be fed so I wasn't that interested in getting my hands dirty this year!


Birthdays are fun...I'm already looking forward to when I turn the big 2!!

Fall Trip to Iowa

This past weekend I got to take a fun trip to see my Grandparents in Iowa. My Uncle Brian and Aunt Beth came too, so the whole family was there!

We went to a neat pumpkin farm and I got into some trouble...

Here I am shopping for gourds.
They had a neat "sand" box that was filled with corn kernels. It was a lot of fun and I didn't even try to put that many of them in my mouth!
Look at these turkeys...
I love pumpkins...
We got to go on a hayride around the farm...
And I went on lots of tractor rides at Grandpa's house...
