It's Raining Dogs

Here is Maizie trying on the Dalmation raincoat. We can't wait for some rain!

Dalmation envy?

That is so cute! I think that Koko is assuming the raincoat is for him. I have managed, finally, to enter the Anderson Family blog. You all know me and my computer skills. While I'm here I want to tell Janelle how lovely your solo was last week! and Maizie runs just like her cousin Stevie used to do. Here's to you and your energy level!

I was taking a picture of this thrift store find (Dalmatian raincoat for Maizie) to send to Liv. Koko thought he should be in the picture as well.

January 2009 ECFE class

Happy New Year, Happy Chinese New Year!





Matt, Maizie, and I are taking an ECFE class, at the suggestion of our sister-in-law.





So far so good, it's been fun. Maizie likes the music time and art time, and Matt and I like the parent sympathy time...

Here's a picture from Teresa.

My parents and I babysat Maizie the other night. 

This is what ensued...

In case you haven't heard, I have a small part in this year's production of "A Klingon Christmas Carol." 

Today's Pioneer Press had a nice writeup about Commedia Beauregard and how, not only are they doing this show, but they are also doing some scenes from the Klingon Hamlet to be filmed by Paramount as a DVD extra for "Star Trek: The Undiscovered Country."   The picture here is our SQuja'  (Scrooge) working on his makeup.  

(In case you're interested, the show is Saturday, December 13th at the Paul and Shelia Wellstone Center in St. Paul.  http://www.cbtheatre.org/KCC2008.htm)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Russians in our kitchen

We had a troupe of Russian folk musicians stay with us for a week -- Liv dropped by and helped out ably as a translator, and worked on her chops on the Russian folk accordion or "garmoschka".

See you all soon.

sorry uncle john

But these pictures just rock too much to not post:

Correction to calendar

Hi,
Could someone correct the Google calendar on Anderblog? Maizie's birthday is Nov. 20. Thanks!
Janelle

Happy Halloween!

See, Democrats can be patriotic!

Fun with Maizie!

Here's some of the fun we had flying paper airplanes with Maizie when we babysat this weekend.

Happy Birthdays

Happy Birthday, Mom and Tom! (I think mom's birthday is incorrect on the Ander-calendar to the right...)

Qapla'!

That's great news, Tom and Beckie! And now we know the level of news you consider worthy of an Anderblog posting!

ANDERSON BREAKING NEWS REPORT!

Hi Family! Tom and Beckie have exciting news!

WE ARE WITH CHILD! :)

Maizie is going to have a first cousin once removed.

It is early yet, almost six weeks, but we wanted to share the joy with you all!

(No Facebook comments please, it's a secret to everyone that is not family until three months from now. :))
