In Laws

Hello again! Yes, it has been a while and yes, I have been terrible about posting. I will get back into the swing of things I swear!!

This weekend was a busy busy busy weekend. Craig's mom, Jenny and step dad, Mike were here from Las Vegas visiting us and his brothers family! It was a great visit and we had so much fun! They arrived in Madison Friday night around 5:00 PM. We had supper at our house with everyone attending! What a beautiful night it was, the weather was perfect!

Saturday we all headed to SF to Chuck E Cheese for birthdays! Saturday and Sunday were the cousin's birthdays so we had to celebrate!! We had a great time there with all the kids enjoying themselves greatly. After that the other Nelson's went shopping while we took the folks and went to Falls Park. We spent a good amount of time there, we even went up in the tower, which I had never done before. What a busy place!! I couldn't believe how many people were there





After our SF trip, we came back to our house and grilled. It was nice to gather again and just have time together. After supper we decided to take the kids to the hotel and go swimming. Micah had a blast!!!! I think we are finally over our fear of water so know the game is on!!







(I will probably get into trouble for posting this next one, but I couldn't resist!!)

Please make sure Mike sees this Jenny! Haa Haa!!! Don't get to mad, or I have wet head one I could post at any time!! HAAA HAAA
Sunday we all went to church and then to the other Nelson's for dinner. We spent a few hours there with them and the folks before heading home for much needed naps! Micah slept from 2:30 PM until 5 and only got up because the phone rang!! I think he would have slept a lot longer, but decided it was time to get up. Whew, what a lazy bones!! After the nap, we headed back over so that Ebeni could open her birthday gifts and then we went to McDonalds for supper. The kids played of course and we enjoyed visiting. After this we went back to their house and had ice cream and birthday cake for yet another birthday! It was yummy! After a little more visiting, a few pictures and laughs, it was time to say good bye.








It was a wonderful weekend! It is always wonderful to be able to get together with family sometimes they are the most neglected as far as time spent together!

Wow you had a busy weekend!! Sounds like fun though. It's nice to get some quality time with family!

I think if you get a recordable DVD (instead of a CD) you can burn your videos onto that from your computer and they should play in your DVD player. I think it has to be a little bit newer DVD player though. The older ones won't read anything that has been burned. So the KEY is to buy a DVD and not a CD...they look exactly alike...and to make sure your DVD player is not ancient :) Good luck!!
