The Not So Ordinary Nelsons: More family time!

If you also blog, you know there is nothing more frustrating than typing up an entire post, and then for whatever reason, you lose the post! Yep, that just happened. For that reason, this post will be short and sweet.

With only 5 days left, things have been getting kind of crazy around here! There is so much to do before we leave- spend time with family and friends, pack, paperwork, shopping, etc. It seems like everytime we get something off the to do list, we add a couple more. But, it'll all come together and we couldn't be more excited! Plus, we are doing a pretty good job of balancing fun with the move preparations. This past weekend we were able to head up to northern Cali and spend some time with my brother and his family. The pictures pretty much tell the story, but while up there we were able to go on a hike and because it was so hot, we all ended up in the river. It was a lot of fun! Oh, and my brother can BBQ with the best of them! We had a great visit with them, but the weekend flew by entirely too quickly. We also were able to spend some time visiting with Danielle and Jay this week. She cooked up a delicious dinner, and we were able to spend some time visiting while the kids played. Last night we went to Buffalo Wild Wings w/ Colt and Syd. Try not to be ashamed that we've lived a mile away all summer, and this was our first time enjoying their famous wings! While there, we also ran into Adrien, Jenn, & Carson. Great food and great company!

This Sunday we are planning to BBQ with friends and family. Monday we have a lot to do, and Tuesday we depart. BBq'n will allow us to see as many people as possible before we depart.

Today we are taking a break fom the headache that is packing and preparing to leave the states. The girls and I are headed over to the beach with some friends. One more fun day on the beach before the real craziness begins!
