The Newest Nielsen!

So Wade and Shelane had their 5th. Josh Asa Nielsen born 2.23.08 7lbs 1oz. and 21.5 inches long.
You can visit their blog to read more about him. But they're doing good. He was almost born on Trev's birthday. Yes today Trev is 30 and he is so excited about it :( Trev loves having all the attention focused on him and having a birthday on sunday is even better. It was actually a pretty relaxing day. I planned on getting up early to feed all the animals for him but he beat me outside so I helped him with the ones that were in the barn. It was raining so he feed Lady and Slick that are out in the field. I sent him to bed so I could make him his breakfast and have the kids serve it to him. They love birthday's. I try to decorate for every holiday because they love it so much. I didn't get to the streamers last night because I fell asleep early and so of course Tyler asked me when he got up where all the decorations were. Thanks Tyler I almost didn't feel guilty. We gave Trev some snowboarding pants, work pants, and a boot dryer. You put your boots on these sticks that dry your boots for you. It's been a long winter of rain so Trev has had to use the hair dryer a few times to dry out his shoes. So hopefully the hair dryer will last me longer. We rushed to get ready for church that starts at 8:30 a.m. and made it in time for the opening hymn. I teach the Book of Mormon to the 14&15 year olds' in the room that Priesthood has it's opening exercises in. So I decided to embarrass Trev a little and write a birthday message on the chalkboard for the entire Priesthood to see. He loved it!!!! J/K My mom made another delicious meal and then the opened a few presents, played apples to apples and then I had to drop Trev off at the church for a fireside. It was a busy but good day. Trev I love you and you will always be 23 to me. Thanks for all that you do for us! We love you! ( I would post a pic of Trev but he hates having his picture taken too so use your imagination).

The New First Presidency!



Wow does news travel fast, especially in the LDS community! I just heard this morning that President Monson is now the new Prophet (chills just ran up my arms), President Eyring 1st Counselor and President Uchtdorg 2nd Counselor. Just typing that made me realize that these men were called of God to lead us. I am so grateful for the Gospel, it's awesome. We had a meeting last night to realign the Lincoln wards, again, and we stayed in our ward. Nikki and Jared are back but we still couldn't get Britt and Chad in our ward. Britt lost a lot of friends in the split and she is bummed but understands growth is always good in the church. By the way Giants won the superbowl, that was kind've unexpected but we love the underdog don't we. The sun is out and I am inside cleaning. I love the sunshine through the windows though. It is just beautiful!
