Emily's Baptism










Emily was baptised on the 25th of October by her dad. She had a wonderful day other than the fact that she had a fever of 101. The tylonol worked up until the last guest left our house then she felt pretty mellow the rest of the day.

The Championship Game







Josh's 5th grade football team played Saturday for the Championship.....It was a really exciting game....the Hurricane Tigers started out a little on the slow side...7-0.....other teams favor......Hurricane finally made a touchdown but didn't make the extra point, putting the score at 7-6 I was a little worried when the other team scored another touchdown in the fourth quarter making the score 13-6 with only 8 minutes left in the game. When they kicked the ball to us after thier touchdown, a small kid on the Tiger team caught it and ran the full field making a touchdown! The score was tied.......the other team had the ball, and only about 5 minutes left in the game.......I figured we wouldn't have the time to score again especially since the other team had the ball.....but Hurricane managed to hold them......and gained control of the ball...... scoring their winning touchdown 20-13..... They got some really cool trophy's.. He'll have a full story with more pictures on his blog. Check it out and he'd feel really great if you all left him a comment. joshuamnielson@blogspot.com What's up with the rest of you all....I'd like to hear what's going on with everyone.....Still haven't seen any pictures of the Gardiner Grand baby on here yet.

NIELSON NEWS



Just to let you know we have had tons of birthdays the month of October. Emmy was baptized. Julie and Adam had their baby girl about three weeks early...She weighed 6'10 and was 18 1/2" long....she has coal black hair, and has enough to actually style. We think she looks like Tanner. Her name has been Brooklyn Anne (Julie's middle name is Anne) since they found out they were having a girl. I guess you all heard that Lisa was almost 3 months pregnant, but had a miscarriage...seems like sometimes you get the good and the bad all in the same week. Lots going on.
The deer hunt was pretty unsuccessful....(yeah) oops did I say that out loud.....the camping was great and the weather was wonderful....the cousins had a ball playing in the dirt.
Wish we could have been there for your Anniversary Mom & Dad.....but we were thinking about you and wishing we could be to dinner with all you guys.
Does anyone know if Shelley's family knows the blog information, I haven't seen any posts from any of her family.....this was her idea and since I don't hear much about their family, I would really like to have them post what is going on with all her bunch...I tried to call her the other day, but didn't get her, so if anyone hears from her will you check to see if she got my email that had all the blog information on it.
H-e-l-l-o Tonja, what's up with you, I thought this being your first grand baby.....we'd have the family blog full of pictures....This is our #20 and I'm still bragging! What the heck!!!
