The Great Month Of January

Wow..Where has time gone, I know I know..Im horrible about this whole keeping up to date thing..but "A" for effort right:)!!
Well We kicked off the new year right with a game of bowling and hanging out at our House with Cory & I's little brothers, Shane and Rayden..It was nothing off the wall exciting but was simply legit!!
Cory desided to go back to school for both of our sake and he started back up at Utah State University for the the Spring semester that Started on the 9th..its been a little bit of a life adjustment but will pay off in the end, he is wanting to go forth and persue a major in buisness and then go on to Dental and Ortho school..soo yes we are in it for the long haul...ahhhh..but go cory:)!!
Traxton as of a little after the first of the month started giving high fives..yes proud parents we were pretty excited!!
Guess who is almost the big "1" ahhh.. My baby (mommy tear)..Traxton got 2 birthday partys this year, his grandma Nielsen was going to sadly be out of town so we had one a week befor his actual birthday at his grandma and grandpa nielsens, grandma great nielsen came, as well as grandma and grandpa great clawson, and due to grandma and grandpa great Jackson heading out of town for a month they accompanied us as well and then the fam of course..:) we had lasagna, salad and of course a cake:)!! Traxton was very excited but overwhelmed ha ha there were so many people in love and support of him and all the toys ha it was a great time!!

We then the following week on Traxtons big actual birthday, we had a birthday party out to the farm and had Hawiian Hay stacks, cupcakes and Traxton had his very own cake.. We had the whole Fam dam out there, along with Rad, Em & Stone and then also the nielsen brother and sisters, and of course Nando..Traxton was not so faund of sharing his grandma and grandpa with Stone (he has since got use to it) but it was a great sight, also he didnt quite know what to do when he was actually able to destroy his cake, especially when we had been telling him no no all night haha..it was only a matter of a couple people exampling befor he figured it out and had it everywhere.. it was great... and presents of course he was more interested in the bag..FIGURES!!  All said and done, wow my baby is one and I cant deside whats more crazy that or that ive already been a mommy a whole year...weird!!  I Love it tho:)!!

ROADTRIP...Traxton and I took off and went down to McCall, Idaho for the weekend and hung out and road witht he Gilberts.. It was quite the adventure down, I had to pull a trailer and considering being in a truck for 6 plus hours, traxton was awesome... Of course uppon arrival Aleta was set to be the ultimate aunt leta for the weekend..TOys Galore, Traxton was in very good hands as Farron and I ventured off to go snowmobiling, also went on a crazy rzr ride ha ha it was awesome, wow what a beautiful place..it was a blast and I def learned a thing or two.. They are great people and we love them dearly!!

Cory and I took up another job and started cleaning a tax firm at nights...enough said!!
Sad Day.. Traxton Started Day Care..ahhh But it has been good, he goes two days a week and is in the same class as his cousin stone:).. It is a day care that is connected to the hospital and its called Best Friends..its a great place.. even tho Traxtons spoiled life style, kinda got put in check ha ha!

Christmas Time!!

Well We had a very eventful and blessed Christmas in many different ways...

The weekend befor Christmas we went up to burley To grandma Teals and had christmas Dinner and hung out and stayed the night at aunt carols..it was fun, but short and sweet!

Christmas Eve..We had recieved a phone call shortly befor we were to be on our way with our plans for the night, that Cory's dad Clayton had been trampled by a horse and was found out back in the pasture and was going to be rushed to the hospital in the ambulance... eeekk lets just say I drive fast as it is but I raced to the hospital...We got there in time to wait for all the exrays and cat scans to be done befor we could know much more, more family started to show up as we all gathered round trying to comfort clayton as he was in shock and all tied down... Finally forever later it felt like, we found that he had a little bit of bleeding on the brain as well as bruising, a broken clavical, 4 or 5 broken ribs in the back ahh, and then a partially collapsed long... they then began to stableize him and admit him after finding out he was some what alright cory stayed there by his side along with Maria as I headed out to Hyrum to go to Grandma Nielsens Party for a minute and get our baby and then Traxton and I ventured out to Smithfield  for my moms Anual Christmas Eve dinner.. It was all very lovely, we opened up our gifts from eachother (the sybolings) we drew names this year, so I had Rad and Cory had Rayslyn.. Rad got 2 movies and a car washing kit, and then rayslyn got a hoodie and tanning lotion.. Emily had cory and he got a nice button up shirt and a hoodie, and then Nando had me and I got a $50 buckle card.. Whoo Hoo!! It was fun, it was hard not having Cory there to join us but he was where he needed to be right there with his dad... Afterwords Traxton and I headed up to the Hospital to see Grandpa, where cory's family was as well.. we all hung out for awhile, and then desided we best head home which was very hard to leave our dad/ grandpa that was laying there in pain..that night when we got home at 1 am Cory was determined we opened up our own personal gifts that were under our tree..So we did ha ha and Traxton was a trooper... Cory Got an Xbox 360 Call of Duty Edition, as well as clothes, a gear bag, and a bunch of other stuf..I got A helmet Cam, My ring and some fun cute other stuff as well.. Traxton Got lots of toys:)) Including a little skidoo snow sled that you pull from his Aunt Amy Mcphee..Don't worry he was more interested in the box rather than all the toys! The next morning we barley got out of bed so exhausted from the night befor, but we were up an at em on our way back out to My parents for Christmas morning to open up all our presents..Traxton go clothes, toys, a little kawasaki 4-wheeler..It was all great:)..I got an Ipod Touch, yay and cory was so excited he got a Klim Coat and a Helmet...We had got dad an Ounce of Silver that We had engraved on it #1 Grandpa (talk about someone that is impossible to shop for)  We got mom a necklace, and a big file folder thing with a bag that you can put pics in the front of it!! It was a very good morning... Grandma and Grandpa came over about noon, and ya..:)  We then found out Clayton had gone into surgery to get his Clavical fixed to help his long start to get better so we went over to the hospital for the rest of the afternoon, and hung out with the fam and clayton as he layed there ha..Traxton didnt quite know what to think about his grandpa not popping right on up and tickling him with his mustache, and all the cords that were attatched to him, he def wanted his grandpa better..but hey that night we even got free christmas dinner from the hospital so we had it right there in the hospital cafeteria:)... That Night my family came to see Clayton so we all hung out for a little while and then that was Christmas day!!

The next day traxton and I hung out up at the hospital and then that night all us kids (me, traxton, shane marisa, amy, cory)  went out to Grandma clawsons she had her anual christmas party, where we of course ate food and  played the useful gift game, we ended up with a movie pass, and a jamba juice pass it was awesome!!
The next day, clayton got to come home..but still didnt quite feel up to par enough to have the nielsen christmas yet, so the next night we had Christmas..we had a big ol Ham for dinner it was yum and then we all opened presents on the bed in Dads room so he could enjoy it with us.. Cory got Klim Pants, SURPRISE he was very excited to now have the whole set up, and I got a cute pair of boots.. Traxton got some awesome Kids Pheonix that are magnetic to put on the fridge... Even tho it was late, it couldnt of been
Well I think i have done enough rambling...We had a very awesome and blessed family, I do believe there is such things as Christmas Miracles..One my own little family, The gladfelder Family, The nielsen Family, our Grandparents...that we can all still be together and share eachothers company, our health, and all of the above we couldnt be anymore blessed and I am so very greatful..I Love it!! Merry Christmas Everyone!!
 and better:) besides Clayton being better already!

PickleVille Play House

One Of My Favorit Things we do almost every year!! If You haven't been, you definetly should its way fun! PickleVille Play House puts on a Christmas Production up at USU every year that My family usually goes to as a Christmas outing together!  Last Saturday night we (Cory, Traxton & I, Mom, Dad, Sis & Lil Man, Grandma & Gramps J, and then Bill & Nando) all went!  We did the pre dinner thing that is done by coppermill every year yummmy, and then the play followed right after!  This year there was a great story behind it, and more so played out the symbolism of christmas and it really made me think of Christmas in a different way! There are a couple things in the program that they stated that I really would like to share so I will have to update and get them on here!  After words we got to see santa and get a pic of our lil family with him!! It was a great night!!
