HAPPY BIRTHDAY TYLER!!!!!
WE WISH WE COULD BE THERE WITH YOU. WE'LL EAT SOME CAKE IN YOUR HONOR.

The littlest ones

These two followed each other around all day. They tried to get the chair rocking, but weren't synchronized. They would crack up after each effort. I am sure that Blake enjoyed having someone his own size around for once. Aren't they cute?

Braden Turns Eight!!

Happy Birthday Braden!! Thanks for sharing your special day with us, we hope you enjoyed yourself too. We look forward to your baptism now. **These pictures are obviously taken at Grandma's house, the boys are a little into Bionicles if you couldn't tell.

Our Trip to San Francisco

We went to Muir Woods and the Golden Gate Bridge in July . The boys really enjoyed both, other than Blake who hated the wind on the bridge. We were fortunate to have a clear day in S.F.

Welcome to the Nielsen Family Blog!!

Welcome to the blog. I thought this would be a great way to keep in touch with everyone and to stay updated. No more of this, "I don't know what's going on with that person." I have commitments from the grandchildren saying that they would participate, so I better not be the only one contributing to this thing. Please, like you're not already wasting time on the computer, now you'll have a good excuse. Besides, I would hate to have my dwarf army attack those who fail to post; yes, that is their intimidating picture that you see before you as they train in the fine art of couch combat. Oh yes, tremble with fear. Now the posts will be flying in.
