CHRISTMAS WEEKEND

This Christmas was SOO much fun!! We traveled up to Moab like we do every year and it was surprisingly a lot warmer then the previous year ( last year I ventured out in massive heels trekking through the snow...which was not my best idea. By the end of the night I was scared I was going to loose a toe! I think I lost feeling in my feet for a good hour) So this year being in the 50's was making me one happy lady! We woke up bright and early Christmas day (so this is why I look so fabulous in the photos below) Everybody got spoiled this year! Matthew and I gave our selves the gift of TV...which was much needed, our 18th century TV was just not cutting it. So we upgraded to a 42" LCD LG :) We broke it in last night while we made gingerbread houses, which was so much fun. Im so lucky I married a man that would sit and do that with me! Love him. 

The kids got some awesome stuff...as you can see below they had a blast!! Christmas was a complete success and I cant wait to begin the new year with a bang!! 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
LOVE 
THE NELSONS

                                           I think the one thing Dax loved the most about his new toy...was running over
                                           anything he could.


Miley was so terrified by Dax and his fourwheeler coming towards her
she mad a break for it...and ran right into shanell's face

CHRISTMAS IS COMING

My wonderful husband bought me our first Christmas tree this year and I couldn't be happier with it! It gets me in such a holiday spirit...I would have ten in the house if Matt would let me get away with it.

Here's a look at our Christmas decor...

THANKSGIVING IN MOAB

Thanksgiving was a blast...I love going to Moab anytime we can! Which thankfully is often! Most the family made it and we had so much fun. I think I am going to be full for the next few days as a result.

I finally got my FIRST Christmas tree that I have been convincing Matthew I need for weeks now!! As we pulled into town tonight we stopped by Walmart and chose one out. It was perfect size and had the white lights already attached. I was soo excited! So we get home and the first thing I do is put the tree up. As soon as I got done I notice that my beautiful WHITE bulds look a little too colorful....it turns out we bought the wrong tree :( So I guess we'll be returning it tomorrow and I'll have to wait another day to put up my tree.

Here's a few pictures from this weekend.....

WEDDING

HONEYMOON IN ATHENS GREECE

After our amazing wedding...we managed to get in around four hours of sleep and then we where off to Vegas to catch our flight to Greece! Little did we know how difficult it would be to get there. When we got to Philadelphia they delayed our connecting flight to Barcelona for seven hours. Which was something we were definitely not prepared for..but made the best of it. Unfortunately by the time we got to Barcelona we had missed our flight to Greece. So we spent the night in Spain and planned on getting the next flight to Greece in the morning. All we had time to do is walk around a little and go to dinner, which gave us a glimpse of how beautiful Spain is. We eventually got ourselves to Greece and had an amazing Honeymoon. We spent ten days seeing all of Athens and a few islands. It was so gorgeous and we had the best time. I think its safe to say even with how hard it was to get to and from greece...my legs swelling up from the flight...the riots happening in Athens...and having no idea what anything said there...we had the perfect honeymoon. I LOVE my new husband, he's my best friend and I couldn't have been more lucky to have found him.
