Josh has been fascinated with violins and cellos since my family reunion last summer when he begged to play my sister's cello. So when Nate's parents sent us home with an old violin for him to practice on and he didn't want to put it down (even when he was sleeping), we decided to get him one his own size and find him a teacher. He had his first lesson today and was so excited! His teacher is fantastic and was so cute with him.
This was the day he got his new one. It is the cutest thing I have ever seen! This is Nate's dad, who plays the violin, showing him how to play.
These pictures are for Lia. She's always asking me to take pictures of different things and put them on the blog. Lucy is my niece who just moved across the country--they miss her a lot.
Getting ready for our New Year's Eve get together. Don't I have great helpers? For some reason they love cleaning the fridge, which is great because it's something I never get to.
Lia was invited to a fairy birthday party and Laura wanted to join in on the fun too.
This is Megan's outfit of choice. Lately she's been trying to take her clothes off the minute she hears the word "bath" and she'll even put her clothes in her hamper for me. It's really cute.
I love Josh and Megan in this picture, which is why I'm including it. This is where I spend most nights from about 9:30 to who knows when. It gets Megan to sleep and gives Nate a chance to study, but at some point I'd like to lay her down and walk away and spend those evening hours awake keeping Nate company and getting some projects done.
Josh loves fire engines and for a while was always asking me to draw them for him. Well now he can draw his own, complete with a fireman. I was so impressed I had to take a picture.

So very cute Kara....
That is a really impressive fire truck! And I love that picture at the top of your blog of all the kids in their Christmas clothes, it's really cute!
Wow, I am impressed with Josh's art. I was under the impression that the Nelson genes killed any and all artistic ability that may exist on your side of the family. Five him a bouree and send that kid to France.
