More Christmas 2008 - Look at those cute kids

Christmas 2008

Hey! I finally did it! I'm an official blogger now!

Michael and Karen celebrating his 40th birthday.

Well this is what it looks like before everyone comes!  We can't wait to see all the family at home.  

Chief's Game Dec 21, 2008

Jeff, Brian Noerrlinger, Kent Andel and Jeff's father Jim, went to the Chiefs game yesterday. It went down as one of the coldest games in Chief's history. Temp between 8-10 degrees and wind chill of -20. And no, it was not Jeff's father, a 60 year old man that sometimes has bad joints that can be affected by weather who made them leave early. And it wasn't Jeff either. Some just aren't as tough as others. :-)



This one looks to me like Kent looking at Jim going "please, really? You aren't ready to go?"

This was a crazy man that sat a few rows in front of them.

My 29th birthday

We even got breakfast the next morning.

This tv was builit in the mirror in the bathroom. It was very cool.

Here are a few pics. from my birthday on Friday. We had a beautiful room and we had a wonderful time. It was a great night!

Liberty Giving Tree Day

Jeff and I, along with friends, adopted three families this year. Today we delivered a truck load of presents, three boxes of food for each family, a turkey, a bag of potatos and a gallon of milk to each family. It was a great morning. Ryan, our six year old nephew was there (camera shy this morning) and it was so great to see his arms loaded up with presents carrying them into houses. He had a huge smile on his face the whole time. He helped us shop as well. Merry Christmas everyone! Love to you all - Anne.

My girlfriend Keri took this with her phone. Not the best, but alas.

Meet Baby Atkins

As you can see from the far left of the photo we are having a boy!!!!! It may look like a foot but, oh no he was not shy to show us his goods. All is well with our little man. He is almost one pound and as healthy as can be!!!! If you look closely in the second pic. you can see him sucking his thumb:)

This and That

Hey all! Thought I would post a brief update for those avid Einig Family Update Blog readers out there. :-)

I have one week left at Starlight. Next Friday is my last day! I start my new job on January 5th. Yeah! Here is their website if anyone would like to take a glance: http://www.prepkc.org/. I met with them today to sign my contract and go over a few basics. It was really nice - I walked in and got hugs all around. I am excited, this feels like the right choice for me right now and I am excited for the change. But I will be balling like a baby next Friday - I do love my coworkers at Starlight.

I am on facebook as is Micah. He and I have exchanged a few messages and he posted some pictures of the kids. WOW do they look like Jefferson's. Cory is also pregant again - due in early July. If I hear any other news from him I will make sure to pass it on. It is amazing how people can stay connected through social networking sites and blogs. (Yes, that was a not so subtle note of sarcasm.) Jeff and I will be coming in on Christmas Day and we are hoping to meet you all at Grandma's. Jeff has to work on the 26th from St. Louis - but we knew that was going to happen. Enjoy the pics of the kids. Love to you all and can't wait to see you over the holidays - and can't wait to hear if I will have a new niece or a new nephew. (the two on the left are Micah's - the one on the right in pink is Cory's. Noelle, Jonah and Hannah.)
