a glimpse into the life of an anthony child.

tonight started out just like any other night - my family circled up like we always do to chat and pray together. somehow, we began talking about the future and what our family gatherings will look like in 20 years. my dad insisted that our children must call him "granpappy." uhm i'm thinking no. and he and i came up with the idea that our children will call my mom "nony" haha (: my dad wants each of us kids to have 8 kids of our own, so that will make 82 of us at each immediate family gathering. my dad also thinks that we should all stay at my parents house because "it'll be tradition" so there will be 82 of us sleeping in the same house. crazy! so we began brainstorming as to how that could work, and my dad came up with the idea for a "pull a number for a shower" thingamabob. so he imagined one of our kids pulling a number and being like "46! shoooot!" hahaha. and there'd be a little "now serving #12" sign above the door. giggle.
oh. and luke is convinced that his children are going to be like this:



and that they will even walk around with their hands like that. oh and they will call luke and his wife "father" and "mother" rather than mom and dad. (and they will call my parents "grandmother" and "grandfather" rather than "granpappy" and "nony") here's another picture of what luke is convinced his children will be like:

oh and levi's children will be like this:



total surfer children. it'd be so fun to see luke and levi's children interact. haha!
