She came into the world like all of us Nielsen girls - quietly and without a lot of fuss (do you really believe that?)

BABY UPDATE!!!!
What has happened this year? Well, pretty excited
about the fact I am now going to be a grandma! First off, you are
right, I am far too young to be a grandma, but this is what happens when
you start off being far too young to be a mom! But, that's okay,
I am excited and happy about it. Looking forward to spoiling the
heck out of the kid and sending him/her home! So, come the end of
September, expect to see some baby pictures on this site. Will probably
update daily then!
Here is a picture of the boys (and their girls) taken
as my Christmas present in 2004. They are Travis (on the left), Claire
(bottom), Sabrina (top), and Derek (right). Travis and Claire are
the two soon to be new parents. Good looking bunch of kids!
And, this family gathering would not be complete without.. yes.. you guessed
it.. the first picture of my grandchild! Check out that profile..
another good looking kid!
Okay, it is now 2003! Lis and Jette, cousins from
Denmark,
came visiting with (part) of their families.
Here we all are, gathered in the back yard of my sister
Marian
and her husband Neil, our most gracious hosts!
My sister Marian and I decided we had enough of listening
to the whining
and sniveling of our (older)
sister Inge.
So, we packed ourselves up to make a daytrip to visit
Inge and her new deck!
We left early in the morning (it is a three hour trip
each way) and arrived
in time to enjoy a beautiful day on the new deck!
However, we would like to make a formal apology at this
point
to all of her neighbors. The neighborhood will
never be the same again!
And a big thank you to Dorothy for putting up with the
three of us
and patiently waiting for us to quit the hysterics so
she could take a picture!
(Check out Inge and Dorothy's Webpage
if you are into Folk Art)
To give you an example of the day, check out the pictures
below.

I like to call these ones - Losing it, lost it, totally
gone!
And, the view of us with the garden
The first picture is my sister Inge and her daughter Niki
My sister Marian with her husband Neil and their children
Haley and Karsen
Finally, Marian on the left, myself, and Inge on the
right
This picture (2002) is me and my boys, Travis is on the left and Derek is on the right.
I can't believe 2002 has already come to an end!
Here are some pictures from Christmas!
Okay, first we have my Dad with my boys
Then we have Sabrina (Derek's girlfriend) my Mom,
and me
Then, yup, you guessed it Mom and Dad
and finally, myself with my boys! Aren't we
all too good looking!!
Now, poor Kevin had to work Christmas so wasn't in
the Christmas pictures.
But, here he is after Christmas with our pooch Scooter
(who hates having his picture taken!)
Now, I do have another sister, Ellen, and her children
Clint, Amy, and Aaron.
They do not live here in the city, I keep asking for
recent pictures, but so far have not gotten any!
(Hint Hint Ellen!!!!)
Here you have it! The whole family, gathered together
for my mom's birthday in 2001!
This good looking guy is my boyfriend Kevin.
The good looking car is our 1966 Mustang Coupe!
Check out my Planes Trains and Automobiles page for more
on our
other Mustangs, and for a link to Kevin's page where
we are documenting
the complete restoration of a 1966 Mustang Convertible!
These pics were taken at our annual Halloween Party in
2001!
I definately should have scanned more, and maybe I still
will!
Keep checking back for updates!
Okay! Since I didn't get more scanned, and it is
now Halloween 2002,
here are pictures from this years party! At this
moment I don't have
any pics of Kevin and I in our costumes, but it will
be here soon!
Okay!!! Finally! The hosts of the party!!!
