Las Vegas/Phantom of the Opera

We had the privilege to go down to Las Vegas and see Phantom of the Opera with our friend Traysen and his family. It was such a blast! We ate at Buffalo Wild Wings twice in one day (the boys insisted), had quite the adventure finding a hotel the first night, slept in an awesome condo with a lazy river and like 5 pools and hot tubs, went to a place where they let you shoot hard core army guns (Tylers favorite part), and saw Phantom (my favorite part)! It was such a fun trip! Thanks so much to the Turner family for letting us tag along!

Springville girls back to back state basketball champs!

Number 14 is my sister Mackenzie Nielson! They played awesome! It was close, but they fought hard! She even had to get 5 stitches after last nights game! It was so fun to be a part of and to watch these girls succeed! Love ya Kenzie! Way to go!

Playing Catch-up!

I know that I am considered a poor blogger at this point! Just not doing well the last few months! So I thought I would get on and do an update! HoPefully I can slowly catch back up!
Christmas 2010 was in RichfIeld. It was fun to have baby Jaxson to celebrate it with! We all got footy pajamas! I told Brett and Donna I always wanted footy pajamas and they made my wish come true! Even Tyler loved his! We even made a trailer gingerbread house with an outhouse! - compliments of Grandma Dee!
We even got to see my family in Springville! My Grandparents were down from Canada and we had some cousins from up there that were down this way too! We had a blast!
We are so glad we got to be around all of our family for the holidays! We are so lucky!
Until the next- hopefully soon- late update!

Family Pictures!

Here are some of the family pictures that we got taken right before Riley left on his mission! Pretty fun!

The latest!!!

Ok so here is what has been happening! Riley left on his mission! That has seemed to be what everyone has focused on. And school... Tyler has finals coming up too! So he has been extra busy! Mackenzie's team took the 4A state championship.

Mackenzie's basketball team did great this year! They went completely undefeated! They won the Championship (which is something that every basketball player dreams about doing and only few get to actually experience it). She did great! It was so fun to watch (even though we almost had a heart attack during each game).

We will miss Riley so much! Maci even tried to go in his suitcase! It was really amazing how we have watched him grow into a young man... well... and ELDER! It's crazy that the little boy that used to put grasshoppers down my shirt is going out to Czech to teach those people the gospel! We are really proud of him and know that he will do great! The family has already received a few letters and he loves his companion so far, and is seeing some of his friends in the MTC!

Tyler's sister Maddi is having a little boy!!! We are so excited! Our first nephew! He is going to be so spoiled. She is due in June and is moving back to Utah next week. So it will be good to have them around (instead of clear out in Pennsylvania). We had a baby shower for her and it was loads of fun!

We have had weddings, weddings and more weddings! Chelsi and Jake got married FINALLY, and one of my best friends Laken got married (i was a bridesmaid). They got married on the same day actually!

My teammate from Snow went on a mission! So our team got together for her farewell!

Grandma Caldwell had a birthday! Happy birthday Nanna Shanna!

Here are some random picts from the last few months!
