Growing up a Nelson

So I have been thinking a lot about our child hood the ups the downs and the in betweens I remember so much and i feel like it is so little at the same time I remember the sad and the happy but i just wanted all of my siblings to know how much I love them I know that you all know that but i just thought i would share a few things that i remember and hopefully you will laugh and maybe cry but mainly you will just remember what a great privilege it was to to grow up as a Nelson...
I don't think you can forget..
Desserae bouncing up and down while saying ahhh ahhh
Dad swinging from the tree while making us a swing
Our long Christmas nights full of silent night
Out incident with spilling the comet and no one taking the blame
Our Long trips to sequoia with the other half of the Brady bunch
Misty getting her fingers smashed by the "FAT" girl on the teeter totter
Throwing marshmallows out the window of our cabin and acting so innocent when the bears came to hunt them down
the crazy man running through our camp Screaming "there's a bear on the loose"
Grants gum getting stuck on uncle Bryan's car and getting busted
All the Bascom killers ch ch ch KILL KILL KILL
Being forced against our will to sing at every baptism in the Western side of the united states
Watching our Misty's Future husband being attacked on Halloween by a psychotic scare crow and watching the beat down of the scare crows life right before your eyes
Doing the best toilet paper job every only to be forced by your mother to go clean it up
Thinking we were the next Professional dancers that would make millions while we made goodies for out audience who sat and watched us make fools of our selves
Being worried that if we didn't raise our hands while going over every set of train tracks that something may actually happen
Using Alisha's make up and blaming it on the boys
Singing Mormon rap on every family trip
Pretending we were erkle way to many times
Fighting over who was who when we played house " yes desserae you can be Pam" as long as i can marry Jimmy
Making up plays for family night and flipping paper pancakes
Watching Alisha make out with Aaron Perez on grandpas couch "Thant still gives me nightmares"
Alisha your car must have oil in it to run LOL
Trying to explain to mom that I hate when desserae says she loves me
Watching dad yell at Ara for burning Misty's nose with a candy cane
Hearing the words " I'm pregnant from mom" on the same day that Alisha said " I'm getting married"
Brittney getting pantsed on the way to school
Walking to school when an earth quake hit
Alisha and Anitra's hair being as big as MT Everest
Drives in the trunk of Misty's beater upper
seeing aunt Betty laying in our front yard making a snow angel
The 12 days of Christmas at our door
Misty and Zorn Alisha and Paul
Desserae and Corby enough said
Getting the phone call on the horrible day when Aunt Betty died
All you can eat buffets at Grandpa Bascoms house on thanksgiving
Ham Sandwiches for 2 weeks later
Misty remember who you are and what you stand for...
walking in the house after church on Sunday and smelling moms yummy cooking
Dads omelets, oatmeal BREAKFASTS period
Praying and fasting that uncle Guy would Be OK
Witnessing Alisha make the biggest mistake ever and having to cry threw the whole thing
Finding out about uncle guy dying
Having 3 older brothers Cole, Jason and Culley
Having our parents divorce after 25 years
Being there for each other every step of the way
Always lifting each other when we are down
And never ever leaving anyone behind
Well I'm sure the more that I think about it the more I will be able to think of But you guys I just hope you know that I know life gets busy and I know we all have our own lives now but i just want all of you to know that you are me best friends and always will be since we all live so far away i guess i am realizing all the time i took advantage of when i was at home all the stupid little fights just don't matter I wish that i could be there with you when you are having a bad day I wish i could be there to let you put your head on my shoulder to comfort you i wish i could come borrow a cup of sugar or just come spill comet with you for old times sake I just want you all to know that I think of you every single day there is not a day that goes by that I don't wish we could all live next door to each other and grow old together i just want all of you to know how much I love and care for everyone of you individually not just because we are sisters and i have to but because I want to I am so proud to call all of you my friends and above all my sisters I love you all so much..
