If you have never tasted Creamies you don't know what you are missing... This is one of our family traditions along with Crispy Meat Burritos at Taco Time.

This is my sister Kristin giving Camille her Banana Creamy. She goes so crazy when she hears the wrapper opening. I love watching my sister laugh it makes me so happy and love her even more.

Family Picture 2010

What a year it has been the kids are getting bigger and life keeps getting crazier.

Anika is in fourth grade, Caleb first grade, Katelyn preschool, Emily Preschool and my

little miss Camille is in mommy school still.

We had a great summer. The kids played and played and played.

We finally got our back yard finished, the kids love to have grass and I love not having DIRT!!

We all stay busy with life and laugh and learn along the way..

A Fun Memory

Hey Emily What are you doing? You walked around the corner drenched and I just sat there and laughed until I could laugh no more. You quickly showed me how you got so wet by squirting your face with your mouth open wide ready to catch the incoming water. You are always up to something. Thanks for keeping the day so action packed. P.S Maybe you could be a perfect little girl for just one day... :)

Dress up!!! "Cool" said Aaron

Moving on to the rest of February. We were invited to a Valentines party, it was dress up as your favorite couple. As you can tell Aaron was Jack Sparrow and I was his Lady..... We had a great time. We won the best dressed couple. We even got a gift card to Victoria Secrets. Ohh Laa Laa This is us at the Costume place trying on the costumes. Caleb and Katelyn I think were more excited than us. They loved watching us play dress up. Katelyn wasn't to sure about letting us go away. She wanted to be next to us until we walked out the door. Aaron was such a great sport like always. He really got into his character. Thats not all that hard for him. He has many characters in that brain of his. Love you dear.....

Katelyn's Third Birthday!!!

Katelyn you picked out your cake this year. You wanted a Pink cake with princesses. As we were talking you said to me, "Mom, can I Fudge my face in the cake, it would be so cool".. Of course I was thinking "but you would ruin the cake" and then the "it's all right" mom side came out and said go for it.

The time had come, she had a little giggle and a little bit if hesitation and down she went. She was so excited to see what would happen. "Mmmm that tastes so good." Katelyn Said, as "Fudged her face two or three more times.

I think you gave your Brother and sisters a few ideas for their birthday.

Happy 3rd Birthday Katie Bug.

So much has happened, I don't know where to start..

..........................Let's start with Caleb in January..................................

Happy Birthday Caleb you are 5...

Yes the time has gone by quickly. You are growing up and turning into a little angel. HEHE

For your birthday we had a cool Motorcycle cake with a trail. You were waiting all day to take thoes motorcycles off and play with them. When you did take them off you didn't want to play with them because you thought they would break.

Grandma and Grandpa Skidmore and Nielson sent you birthday presents in the mail. It is a happy day at the Nielson home when a package comes in the mail. The outfit that you are wearing you wore everyday for four days, I had to give you a good enough reason that we needed to wash it and put other cloths on. We opened the hyper wheels Motorcycles and again you wouldn't part with them and took them to bed putting them under your pillow, so that they would be safe until the morning.

Preschool teachers at Stansbury Elementary, on his 5th Birthday

You have been a great help around the house. You are always willing to help when I ask you. Every night in your prayers you ask that you will be able to help mom clean the house. Apparently you think that all we do everyday is clean. Yes at times that is all we do because when you get up before I do at 5:00 in the morning and eat cookies, bread, Yogart, frosting or anything you can get your hands on, yes we do alot of cleaning after your messes.

You are the night walker. Our alert status around the house for you is the highest. You are and always have been such a eater. You are not even a teenager yet and you are eating everything you can get your hands on.

We love you Caleb you are my handsome boy. Thanks for all that you do for Dad,I and the family. I registered you for Kindergarten this week, now you are officially stuck in school for the next 13 years..... Have fun...

Love you Mom

Thanksgiving at Great Grandpa Hatch's Dairy Farm

This Thanksgiving we went up to my Grandpa's Dairy Farm. The kids love asking Uncle Blaine to give them a ride on the tractor. Anika spent her time in the barn watching Carol milk the cows, that was quite facinating to her. Its fun to see their reaction each time when we go up there. This time Anika was amazed at watching the milk come from the cows and the process in which it happens. Caleb and Jacob loved to play together and imagine what ever they want. I think I know what was on Caleb's mind the whole time.... TRACTORS...... My Aunt Nina cooked a great Thanksgiving dinner like always. She is a great cook. Aaron put alot of time into fixing their computer. He has a great talent when it comes to fixing cars and computers. We spent alot of time talking and just relaxing. I always love being around my family, I always feel accepted and guinenly welcome each time we come. Thanks Blaine and Nina. The Holiday is going by so fast. Each day seems so short, using my time wisely means more to me now I am working on alot of different projects, which keep me busy. Enjoy the pictures...
