Reunion Updates - 07/10/10

2010-07-10T19:14:00.000-07:00

Dear Family,
We are a week away from the reunion and everyone is working hard to make sure it goes well. Here are a couple of things that need clarified and a couple of items that I really could use help with.

1 - Hamburger cook-off - It has been brought to my attention that I didn't explain this very well so I am going to try again. As I read what I wrote it sure didn't sound very clear. So here goes!!!! I will provide hamburger (enough for the dinner). If you would like to share a recipe that you make or want to try something new bring enough ingredients for 1 to 2 pounds of hamburger. We will then have everyone choose what they like and I have some prizes to hand out. I am thinking of making the burgers - Slider size so you can try several. This is only if you want to share something. Otherwise you have to just eat what I make!!!! Is this clear as mud????

2 - There is not alot of furniture in Grandma's house. I suggest you bring camping chairs to sit on.

3 - Sunday Breakfast for those at the house - I will have cold cereal. One kind don't know what it is yet but if you are picky I suggest to bring something else.

4 - DOES ANYONE HAVE A BBQ THAT THEY COULD BRING? WE REALLY NEED ONE FOR SATURDAY NIGHT!!!!! IF YOU COULD HELP ME OUT I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IT!!!!!

5 - SNACKS ---- IF EVERYONE COULD BRING TWO OR THREE ITEMS THAT COULD BE THROWN ON A SNACK TABLE FOR EVERYONE TO SHARE THAT WOULD BE GREAT!!!!! THANKS---HOPEFULLY WE WILL GET A GOOD VARIETY. I AM BRINGING POPCORN FOR MOVIE NIGHTS.

6 - DRINKS-----THERE WILL BE JUICE AT BREAKFAST AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT FOR DINNER BUT DRINKS FOR ANY OTHER TIME DURING THE DAY PLEASE PROVIDE WHAT YOU LIKE TO DRINK FOR YOUR FAMILY.

THERE MAY BE MORE BEFORE THE WEEK IS UP!!!!

Kyle Nelson Family

2010-04-19T19:34:00.000-07:00

Well, I haven't done a very good job of keeping everyone up on how we are doing. We are still in Logan, Kyle is doing well in school. He did get laid off in January but we are doing fine. He found a job that he hates but it's better than what he had......nothing. haha While Kelsey was up this last weekend she got a few pictures of us all. Here are a few of us.Kylie will be 6 on May 16th. She is taking ballet right now and just started soccer. She scored 3 goals in her last game and her coach is very impressed with her soccer skills. Especially where she has never played before. She'll be playing her 2nd year of T-ball this summer and can't wait. She loves to be outdoors and be with her family & friends. She went with me to help my dad brand cows over the weekend and she spent the whole time on the horses. She doesn't get to ride much anymore because we hardly ever go to Tremonton, so she really enjoyed her time on the horses. Kody will be 4 in October. He is such a fun little boy and has a very active imagination. His favorite toys are Woody and Buzz Lightyear. He can't wait for Toy Story 3 to come out. He is growing up so fast. He used to give me kisses every time I asked for one and now I practically have to beg for them. I miss the days when he would wrap his chubbby little arms around my neck and give me a great big kiss. He's not a baby anymore, that's for sure.
Here is Kylie making a goal at her last soccer game. She loves it and has so much fun playing. I love watching her and I'm so glad I signed her up for it even though I didn't really want to. And last, but certainly not least, Baby Nelson is due sometime around December 11th. We are so excited and the kids can't wait. We walked past the baby toy isle at Walmart last week and they started picking up toys asking if we could get it for our new baby, it took me at least 5 minutes to get them off that isle. It was a nice change though, usually they are asking for toys for themselves. It's nice of them to think of someone else once in a while.

Anyways that's about all we have going on for now. We hope you are all doing well.

Love ya! Kyle, Brooks, Kylie & Kody

To the family,

For all of you that are coming to Tyler's Wedding we have two Hotels reserved with special rates. When you call them you just need to ask for the Nelson wedding block. You need to reserve the rooms by june 25th. We have the Spring Hill Suites just down from Dads house on Cloverdale and Chinden for a $65.oo plus tax rate and the RedLion Downtown for $80.00. The Spring Hill Suites will be the closets to the reception and luncheon. Also we have a very small sealing room at the Boise Temple and we are going to be very limited on how many we will be able to invite to the temple. Please know that you all are invited to the luncheon and reception but we will not be able to get everyone into the temple. I hope you will forgive us if we are not able to get you in the temple but that you will join us at the luncheon and reception.

Sincerely,

Uncle Wes

Tyler & Heidi Wedding Announcement (by Uncle Wes)

2009-04-16T10:52:00.000-07:00

Tyler and Heidi will be getting married July 11th in the Boise Temple. This has been a fast and furious engagement. Tyler left for Washington DC lastThursday and when he left he was not engaged and by Monday of this week was. So they have decided on July 11th. And I have just learned that the ceremony at the Temple is at 12:00pm. The Reception will be that evening. But I don't know where yet. So we will keep you all posted. It is going to be a crazy summer.

Dear Family (from Wes & ReNea)

2009-03-23T22:46:00.000-07:00

Dear Family,

I want to thank all of you that came to Tyler's welcome home!!! It meant a lot to ReNea and I. It was so cool to see all of the second generation. I can't thank you enough for the support. I want each of you to know how much we love each of you. We are very lucky to have the family that we have. I know that we all have our problems but I love how we all stick together when we need to. I can't tell you the examples that you all are to us. We are leaving for California in the morning for a week. We get to see a baptism with Tyler and be there for Dalin's competition for Nationals. We will send pictures from the competion. Also I have to tell Joel and Cameron how much I enjoy the emails about football. I want you to know that I don't expect you to agree with me but I love to hear your opinions and give crap right back. So JOEL - GO BRONCOS!!!!!! Just kidding. Thanks for all the support. I can't find spell check so I know all of you know that I can't spell cat so please don't circle all the missed spelled words is red like my mother use to do.
