What a good weekend!

Thanks to my cousins Jono and Anneli, we got to meet Brooke White!  It was so fun.  She had a benefit concert in mesa and we got to go backstage to meet her.  She was super nice, but she was really tired so we just got to take our picture then we had to go.   

On our way out her husband was standing by the door, so I snuck in a picture with him!  He is quite the cutie, I couldn't pass it up!  (Don't worry Babe... I only have a crush on you!!!)That morning we went to Maddy's Soccerfest.  The kids played in bouncy castles and played in the splash pad.  Talan and Kahlia were really enjoying the food!

Thanks for coming to visit us Nielsen family!  We had such a fun weekend!

Look who's 3!!!!

Our little Talan turned 3 yesterday! It was such a fun day.  He woke up at 6:30 am with Spencer and Maddy to go watch our friend Mike do a triathlon.  He was such a trooper sitting outside in the heat.  He just played with his little spiderman guy the whole time.  Then those 3 were so tuckered out that they ditched church and stayed home and watched movies.  That night he had some of his most favorite people over for his birthday party!

He scored some pretty sweet presents!  Thanks guys!

Spence and I joined in on the fun.  He was Mikey and I was Leo (I think).

We let Talan pick his own bike.  Do you think he likes Spiderman?  Check out all that gear.  I think he's ready to go!  

It was also Mike's birthday...  so even after his triathlon he and the fam came over for some birthday festivities.  Happy Birthday Mike!  

Go Soaring Eagles!!

Here are the three musketeers.  I don't know what Maddy would do without her 2 best friends Sydney and Paris.  They are all on the same soccer team and today was their second game.  Maddy scored 2 goals!  She had a good break-away goal.  She ran almost the entire length of the field and nobody could catch her.  I must say we were pretty proud of our Maddy Paddy.

She had a little pep talk with coach (dad) and then she was on fire!

Yearbook Yourself....

I did this awhile ago and Summer inspired me to post them.   If you need a good laugh, then you must try it.  Go to Yearbookyourself.com.  I am sure Spencer thought I was crazy.  I was sitting at the computer for about an hour cracking up!  (Mostly because Spencer's pictures turned out so sweet!)

Here is a little recap of our month.....This is me trying to be a photographer with my non-professional camera.  I think my super cute kids make it kind of easy!  :)
I  got Ryan to do Blue Steel and a bubble for me at the same time.  He is talented.
This is our SWEET friend Boston at his birthday party.  Thanks for the invite!  We had lots of fun!
This is Talan's bowling stance.  
Every morning Maddy looks so cute for school, so I have her pose and I take lots of pictures.
We went to The Melting Pot for Kurt's birthday.  SOOOO YUMMY!  It's always fun to go out with the Palmer's! (Especially without all our little cutie's!)
So our husbands are a little gay.... so what!
