JaZz GaMe BaBy!

I had wanted to take the kids to a Jazz Game for a while so when a man in our ward provided free tickets to the families in the ward we jumped at the chance.
We got a babysitter for Baylor and loved every minute of our lower bowl seats with our friends in the ward!





Spring Geoge Saint Break!

Actually it's Saint George for Spring Break.  We were so excited to head down south and enjoy some warmer weather for the kids break from school.  What made it even better was our cousins came with us!  The first night the kids swam in the indoor and outoor pools (not even wanting to stop to go to the movies). After we headed to Nielsen's Frozen Custard for a treat.
The next day we headed into Zions for some hiking. We did any easy hike to the narrows. And then gave the hike to Angels Landing  a try.  The kids were real troopers and we made it halfway up before it got really steep.  The guys and Taylee went on a head and we headed back.  Then we grabbed some dinner and the kids swam while my sister and I hit the outlets.
It was a nice break and we enjoyed being outside...because we came back to snow ;)

Luck O' the Nelson

St. Patrick's Day was great this year.  I don't think I have the energy to have a leprechaun come to our house...him and our elf on the shelf have run off together...but I DO love dressing the girls in green and having our Green & Rainbow snacks.



 My favorite find this year was these special "Green Marshmallow Lucky Charms."  Awesome!  No dying milk.



 With all this green we knew the day would be LUCKY!
