Nielsen Family Trip to Moab

Connor and Max riding on the horse we borrowed (hook) while I led them around the arena.
Krystal and Kaydence riding on hook around the arena. Krystal was reluctant to get on but did great once she was.
Justin on Red, who previously bucked someone off twice, Connor on Hook, and Chandler on Clebrity riding around the arena.
After we were done riding Kaydence and Chandler helped me to brush them off. Celebrity was especially dirty because while Chandler was on her she slowly layed down and as soon as he was off she rolled around in the dirt....talk about an itch she couldn't scratch.
On the way home from Moab we stopped at my sister April's home in Price and played with Spencer. He is getting so big and he is starting to army crawl.

Allison and Kim enjoying a nice refreshing ice cream cone after a long hard day of shopping!
Everyone enjoying a nice game of Ticket to Ride. Which is not one of my favorite games because I always lose. So I just took pictures!
Brigham and Sara cuddled up enjoying each others company. In fact, when they are together they are uausally never further apart than this.
Becky and Mandalyn relaxing together while enjoying a movie!
Mandalyn is the cutest girl in the whole world. This is one of many of her funny poses. To me she looks like a Reinnasance model.

This is our adorable neice Mandalyn. She loves her uncle Josh more than anyone!
Mandalyn trying to share her bottle with Josh!
Our fun neice Kaydence and nephew Max...they were pretty wild on the trip. I took this picture because Josh and Clark were giving someone a blessing and I took them into the other room to be quiet and taking pictures was the only way to get them to stay in the room.
Josh and his mom Becky hanging out while we were in line for the Cowboy dutch oven cook off.
