Long Lost Photos

 I got some pics off of Uncle Grahamm's camera & thought I would share some of the good ones..

We miss our old place on Johnson St!! :-( That deck was SO MUCH FUN!!

Last days at the LLL cabin! FISH FRY - woot woot
 Returning from an excellent dinner on Burntside Lake in Ely.


Go Twins!!


From Kyler's one year party..

Turkey Day = Family FUn!

We had a great Thanksgiving 2010! Kyler and I were in Sebeka from Wednesday until Sunday and we enjoyed delicious food, cozy relaxation & lots of Nelson family fun!
 We had our turkey day feast at Wendy London's gorgeous house. Kyler was sitting at the opposite end of the table from mom and dad.. and he kept telling uncle Grahamm, "more. more." He is a fan of figs, stuffing, turkey, potatoes & definitely PIE!

 Good lookin mother and son!!

snowfakes keep fallin on my head...

This is Kyler's immediate reaction when we walked out into the snow today:
We had our first taste of snow this season... about ten inches total ~ but it was warm and wet so a lot of it melted. Still a great opportunity to get pulled around in the sled!
Kyler definitely likes to experience new things - he loved it :-) He sat contently for about a half hour in the stroller (in garage) while I shoveled the driveway.



p.s.. thanks for the great snowsuit and hat g&g Bolt :-) It kept me nice and warm today!
And thank you uncle grahamm ~ my sled r-o-c-k-s!! 
love,
Kai

that darn cow

Kyler loves being one! His newest things are: dancing to goofy songs, pulling himself up and taking leg-locked steps, going up and down the stairs, opening and closing doors and cupboards, and drinking milk from a cup... just to name a few of course.

Hallow-eve & Halloween

We had a fun family weekend! On Saturday night we went to this forest nature walk that was lit my jack-o-lanterns called, "friends of the forest." It was put on by a school, so there were kids and adults performing little skits at different stops along the path. SO CUTE! Kyler thought it was great fun!


 He also really enjoyed being a little bear :-)
We dressed him in all brown and drew on his nose w/ eyeliner for the effect. Next year, we are prepared to get more into this holiday. Chris and I are already thinking of ideas for what we can get dressed up as... any ideas out there? Neither of us has ever been too into the whole costume thing, but this year we felt a little lame and left out of the fun.

 For Halloween, our neighborhood has a horse-drawn sleigh that pulls all the kids around for trick-or-treating. We had a great time being outside and enjoying some of the kids in the area!
