Family, Food, and Fun

Yep its that time of year again. Time for the annual Anderson Family Reunion. But before we can get to that, we need to hold a shower for the intrepid birth of the Wheeler twins. That's right, for those of you not aware, Jennie Wheeler (cousin extrordinare) is expecting twin girls some time in October so to honor this, we threw her a 'diaper' shower. After all, she does already have two adorable children in the forms of Wesley and Skylie. So here goes...

The Wheeler side: Mark's (daddy) parents, sister and sister-in-law

A very pregnant mommy with daddy by her side: Mark and Jennie

All in all, it was a great way to spend a Saturday. Who can go wrong spending time with your zany family!
