Kaden is such a great brother. Emma really wanted to have a tea party with Kaden and he went along with it and had a good time. I love watching the difference between boys and girls, it's so special to witness it through your children. Heavenly Father knew what he was doing and I love that he did. Both genders have such amazing qualities about them that is unique and makes them special. I am so thankful that I have a boy and a girl in my life.

We have NEVER planted anything before but hey, why not start now... We are going to TRY to have a garden this year and thought we should involve our kids. Here we are planting tomato seeds to grow in the house for a while. I have no clue when we should plant them but we have a bunch of people from our ward that is helping us out.
So last valentines I begged Michael to take me dancing. In another life I use to love it and was kind of good at it. In all the years we have been married we have never gone dancing. My sister, Trisha, was teaching a free ballroom class so I jumped at the chance. Thanks Trisha!
Michael ended up having a great time with me. My mom and dad came and also my older brother Phil and wife Lisa. We learned the Waltz and Cha Cha. It was great!
Here is some picture's of my perfect valentine's present...
I guess the storm comes before the sunshine...
Michael got accepted into the PMBA program at the U of U.
Good Job honey I am so proud of you!!!!!
Don't worry anyone, our loyalty is still to BYU but when they tell you can't work the first year of the MBA you have to go elsewhere.
I love you Michael! You are the best husband ever.
Hello everyone! I hope all is well and getting ready for some warmer weather. I haven't been doing much lately so I haven't felt a need to post anything. But I thought I would post a little about my week so those that feel they are having it rough they can think... "At least I'm not Krista." JK
It wasn't that bad just annoying most of the time.
So it all goes back to last Saturday. Michael stayed home from work to be with the family so we decided to have a fun night going to dinner and going swimming. We get in the car and... it won't start. 
The battery died in our van but we weren't going to let that get in the way. We put the car seats in Michael's car and off we went. We had a wonderful time and it made me realize that we don't spend enough time together as a family. So we're going to work on that.
We get home and I try to find my cell phone.... 
Can't find it!!!!!
All my contacts... everything! I looked everywhere! For 3 days I didn't have a phone.
Luckily, my sister in law had a extra phone that she was willing to let me have. Thanks Rebecca!
Then today Michael goes off to work with a kiss goodbye. After 10 minutes he calls and says he got in a accident...
No, this isn't his car. I just got it off the internet to illustrate my story. Neat huh? But he did say that it's pretty bad.
All and all, not the best week for the Nielson family. But hey, it could be worse.... knock on wood...
Love ya all! Take care
