Slideshow Confusion!!

I'm new to the blogging business, so it has taken me time to figure out the slideshow thing! I posted the Nielsen Family Reunion a few weeks ago (the reunion was in August) and then I wanted to add more pictures. The next thing I know, I have three of the same slideshow going. I finally figured out how to delete those three slideshows and just make one. I still haven't figured out how to add more pictures to the one slideshow without it making another totally separate slideshow. If anyone knows, let me know too! Thanks!!!!

A Great Weekend!!!

This weekend was so much fun! Tuesday before football practice, Jake and Ryan made cookies to enter in the Utah State Fair. I took their cookies down Wednesday morning. On Saturday we went to both of their football games. Ryan played a great game and was the kicker on his team! They beat Jordan 34-0!!!! Jake also played awesome and they beat Murray 31-6!!!! After their games we went to the fair to see how the boys did in the cookie competition. They were so excited to see that they had both placed 1st for their cookies!!! This is the second time they have entered and last time they also each won first place! They are GREAT cooks!!!

Football Games


This Saturday was spent at football games all day! Ryan's team played Woods Cross and beat them 34 to 0! It was a fun game with little stress. Ryan played almost the entire game! Because there was little stress,
I took a couple of pictures of Ryan while we were there. Jake's game however was totally stressful and I didn't take one picture, but we did get a lot of video. Jake's team played Alta and it was neck and neck the whole game! The refs were terrible and I won't write about all of that, but unfortunately Jake's team lost! It was sad, but they'll play them again in the playoffs!

Pinewood Derby


This past Thursday was the Pinewood Derby! Ryan was so excited to build and race his car. He had to miss football practice to participate, but it was so worth it because he won 3rd place!!!

3rd PLACE WINNER!!!!

Ryan won 3rd place in the Pinewood Derby race!!! He was so excited!!!
