I hope 2010 proves to be a great year!!


Well 20o9 has come and gone and I have to say it was a very good year for the Nelson family. Two weddings and a college graduation made the year very fun and eventful!! Lucas and I got married on February 21, 2009 and it was one of the best days of my life. The wedding was amazing and the reception was magical for me!! Two weeks after the wedding we left on our honeymoon. We went on a cruise to Mexico and had a very good time!! We ended 2009 with Lucas' college graduation!! It was a day we had been looking forward to for awhile and it was an awesome time for the whole family!! Lucas and I then celebrated our first Christmas as a married couple. We did a lot of traveling back and forth but in the end it really was so worth it!! We got to spend time with both sides of the family and had a wonderful holiday!!
2010 began slowly but luckily for us has moved in a wonderful direction!! Lucas struggled with finding a job after graduation due to the horrible economy. The concrete industry had taken a huge hit and there were no management jobs to be found. With God's good grace Lucas was offered a job with Sherman Dixie Concrete on February 4, 2010. He will be doing hourly labor work but we are super excited about the oppurtunity to work for a concrete company. We hope that it leads to great oppurtunities later on!! This is the point we are at right now!! We are excited about the months to come and look forward to paying off some school loans and movin on up in the grown up world!! hahaha We want to get our selves really settled and hope to start a family later this year!!
