Here's some stuff we did, birds i lured with fruity pebbles and some awesome ferrell cats. I also invented slicing while we were there, and native.
It's very reassuring to see our baby starting out life right. We had another ultrasound today and let just say that this baby is enjoying its beginnings. I have here a little pic from the ultrasound along with an explanatory rendition of my own below. As you can see, he/she definitely has the appearance of a nose.
After many years of updating, a few rooms in my parents house have fallen behind, we decided to take those on this last week. We started with a much needed scraping of the popcorn ceiling (asbestos free) and some updated recessed lighting, also rewiring and relocating electrical outlets along the wall. Then we patched up the holes and re-textured the ceiling. The design geniuses in the family (read: mom and sisters) decided against drywalling to keep the wood paneling. I still want to remove the existing fireplace and change it out for a newer look, I might get vetoed on that one.
I needed to post these for the few family members who won't be able to see it for themselves, but would be equally happy to see the glitter popcorn come down.
More to come...
Expect something nice from the Andersen's summer 2009, but we can't say exactly what yet, just that it's gonna be awsome!
Word is Bundok's filipino restaraunt in Salt Lake is closed, but luckily there's a new place open: Ally's Asian Grill, and it's great. It's at 2653 w 7800 s in the Salt Lake area. Tagalog is welcomed, the food is good. We tried their bipsteak tagalog and there tapa, both were so sarap! plan on around 6-7 dollars for a dinner entree, a little cheaper for lunch. entrees are served with buttered saffron rice. Also on the menu were sinigang, lumpia, adobo, fried fish, pancit bihon, lechon kawali, bicol express, crispy pata, kare-kare and some other favorites. (the pata's about $13) check out their menu @ allysasiangrill.com
So many aspects of my sister Mandy's wedding were awesome, but it's late and we haven't slept much the last few nights, so here's a few pics for those of you in the family who weren't able to make it. We were so happy to see many of our friends and family in support for Mandy.
I'll post more soon.
Happy Joyous times at the Andersen's right now, Allie Jo Carlson has had her first child, a little girl named Millie Jo. We were lucky enough to be there soon after she entered this world, and it was fun to be there. The hard part is trying to imagine my little sister Allie as a mom, but that doesn't mean I don't think she will be the greatest because she will. Allie has always had the kindest, sweetest temperament and she will easily use that to bring light in to Millie's life.
