The Flying Monks: December 2014
http://theflyingmonks.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 29, 2014. Once again we didn't get Christmas cards sent out. Sorry friends and family! Here are a few things we'll remember from 2014. Turned 5, learned to ride a bike, started kindergarten, and made lots of new friends. She is still our family artist and keeps us entertained. Turned 8, started 2nd grade, got baptized, learned to ride a bike, started ABA therapy, became a Cub Scout. He has had a tough year in some ways but continually shares his humor and intelligence with us. We definit...

The Flying Monks: May 2014
http://theflyingmonks.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 25, 2014. Falling down and stepping up. I'm home now after two weeks in the hospital and two surgeries. Here is my leg in a leg-motion-machine at the hospital to help bend my knee again. A few things I missed while in the hospital- here is what Clayton did when Bess asked him to smile for a picture:. Here are the kids at Tolmie park. The tide was really low and Brian was thrilled to find a dead crab. Clayton liked running 'on top of the water'. Not only is he doing all this extra work, gettin...

http://mjjmnielsen.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Happenings in Clovis, NM. Thursday, July 25, 2013. It is not easy being the photographer in this family. All I wanted was a picture in an endless field of yellow flowers, contrasted with the blue sky, and our family smiling. Danilyn: "I hate these poky flowers. Daddy come and pick me up.". Carlee: "There is a bee! It is going to get me! Julee: "This is not a good time. The girls are tired and I need to feed Peter first.". Get over here right now and smile or I am going to count to THREE! So Is Our Family.

Happenings in Clovis, NM: April 2014
http://mjjmnielsen.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Happenings in Clovis, NM. Tuesday, April 29, 2014. We went to Mustang Island on Friday to camp on the beach. It was so much fun. The weather was amazing. The moon was so majestic and it was so fun to sit in the sand by the campfire and hear the sounds of the ocean, the crickets, the crackling fire.just awesome. And I might add romantic after we got the kids into their sleeping bags, hehe.). Peter got up early so I took him out of the tent and we watched the sun rise. We got a cute video of the hunt.

Happenings in Clovis, NM: August 2013
http://mjjmnielsen.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Happenings in Clovis, NM. Saturday, August 17, 2013. Our first stop after landing in Salt Lake City, Utah and renting a car was lunch with Aunty Cyrie and then on to my brother Jordi and his wife Jaylene's apartment. After a nice visit with them, we all squished in their front room that night, totally exhausted. It was so awesome to be surrounded by mountains again. We also spent some time at the lake, boating, swimming. Matt liked shooting with his brothers and sisters best of all. We got to stay with m...

The Flying Monks: Carnival and Campout
http://theflyingmonks.blogspot.com/2015/08/carnival-and-campout.html
Saturday, August 1, 2015. Annual visit to the county fair. Good times! The kids were pretty excited to ride some rides! Brian absolutely cannot resist the lure of carnival games. Despite umpteen-million times explaining that they are a scam. He kinda gets it, but he still thinks he can win. I let him play one game, of course he didn't win. Then he was devastated. Oh the joys of parenthood. It went back and forth inside the circle, then all the way around. He completely loved it! The kids loved this giant...

Saturday, May 30, 2015. Just posting some leftover photos and videos from my phone . . . Dory and the Eltons enjoying some of the leftover shades and slap bracelets from my 80's party. Andrew's dad came for a quick visit during his business trip. He brought the kids some awesome stuff from the dollar store in Canada! On Memorial Day Andrew wanted to do a practice triathlon, so we tagged along and the kids swam in the lake while he swam. It was a chilly, cloudy day but they had fun. We got the June Friend.

Happenings in Clovis, NM. Monday, September 16, 2013. Matt, Julee, Carlee, Danilyn and Peter. Pictures, Pictures and more Pictures. Peter has started eating some rice and oatmeal cereal, all his vegetables, and now some fruits. It is fun to feed him because he makes this hmm, hmm, hmm sound in between each bite. We have learned that he likes his peas warmed up though and does not like stage 1 meats (can't blame him for that). Only Dad can do that one! When the girls did my hair. We left it set up in the ...

Happenings in Clovis, NM. Thursday, November 7, 2013. We went to a pumpkin patch and it was great money eating fun. The girls painted pumpkins. Dani got her pony ride. Rode in a barrel train. Played in the hay. Posed on some pumpkins and they got to play in bouncy houses, go down a giant slide several times on a burlap sack, and ride on some carnival ride swings. October is a fun month. Grandpa and Granny Nielsen came to our house for Halloween! Oh, yes and a Judo dude as well. I couldn't even tell her t...
