Super Busy Nilsson Summer

As you can tell, Summer brings a new meaning of busy to this family. So now that we are not doing paperwork, booking trips, and coordinating rafts running down the river, I can get back to the blog. We have done numerous things this Summer. Trips to the beach, trips to the mountains, Darron climbed Mt. Whitney and Evan learned to swim. Raia has turned in to a wonderful little toddler, Morgan is nearing teenage years long before her time, and Bradon learned to skateboard better than I ever will. We had a good season on the river. Water was low, but with not much to do around here, any water is great. We love our summer time business, but are always relieved to have a season end without incidence. Here are a few pictures to proove we didn't fall off of the planet for three months. . . . . Just extremely busy!!!!

"Perfect Attendance"

We haven't yet figured out why we didn't have anything better to do than send our kids to school for the past year, but appearently we are pretty boring. Bradon received a trophy for "Perfect Attendence" for his kindergarten year. Not one day of school missed. Congrats Bradon. You are awesome.

SUMMER HAS ARRIVED

Summer has arrived in true Bakersfield fashion. HOT, HOT, HOT. The kids don't mind. The pool has been there best friend for months. At least now they don't get hypothermia if they stay in more than 20 minutes. Raia is truely a Nilsson. She LOVES the water...I don't think she had a choice.

4-Wheelin Fun

The "kids" in this family are really enjoying the great outdoors on 4-wheels. Of course the "big kid" is just glad to have more of an excuse to get out. Morgan is extremely cautious. Bradon isn't cautious enough,
and dad well....we will just leave it at that!!!!
Mom and the smaller kids just watch and try really hard not to get EATEN by the wildlife.

"THE BIG 20"

Food-Ex had TWENTY deliveries yesterday.
WE are so proud of the business man in the family.
Keep it up Dad

"Flutaphone Fantastica"

Morgan was selected to be a part of the Bakersfield City School District 3rd Grade Flutaphone Concert. She was 1 of 7 kids in her school to go. She did a fabulous job. She practiced very hard to memorize the 4 songs so she could be there. WE love our little flutaphone player.

"Peter Rabbit"

Bradon landed the lead role in his kindergarten rendition of "Peter Rabbit". He
WAS
Peter Rabbit and did a fabulous job. He loved to be the star (I think he got that from his dad). He had to memorize all of his lines and songs. We are really proud of him.
