MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM THE NELSONS
THE NELSON YEAR IN NUMBERS 2009
This year, one of Shayla’s favorite things to do is count and so I constantly have numbers in my head. In honor of Shayla, I present to you – The Nelson 2009 Year in Numbers!
6 - trips out of state to visit family and friends (not far this year, only to Utah, Arizona and Nevada) including
7 - days at Lake Mead for a mini-college reunion with Jon’s past roommates! 30+ hours of boat time and 10 kids under 5 running around the house we rented there!
8 - hour drive to visit beautiful Grand Canyon and Sedona for mini college reunion with Larissa’s college roomies!
805 - our area code and the name of the website I started doing consulting for this year as a fun side job – www.805moms.com
50+ hours a week Jon is at work as manager of Precision Environmental, 10-15 hours a week Larissa tries to work a week for her non-profit consulting business
6 - hours a week Shayla is in preschool this year, she started going 2 days a week and loves it!
2 - trips to Disneyland with Shayla discovering her love for Mickey Mouse
30 - the age Larissa turned this year while saying goodbye to her 20’s. Jon turned 34.
2.5 - years since Shayla became a part of our family! We are lucky to say that so far she has been an awesome 2-year old and sweet as can be!
100+ beach trips, park trips, zoo trips, library visits, etc with Shayla and our toddler friends!
11- nephews and 6 nieces (with 1 nephew on the way) – how blessed we are to have such a large, loving family!
My most anticipated number so far,
8 more weeks until Baby Boy Nelson is here (Feb 26, 2010)! We cannot wait!!!
1 wonderful year full of great friends, wonderful family and happy memories!
We wish you infinite blessings and 1,000 of smiles and hugs for 2010!
