Grandpa Nelson

I remember....When Grandpa would saddle up Brownie and Pinto and Lissa, Britt, and I would ride around the grainery and saddle shed..for hours.

He used to give us rides in the tractor bucket, he would take us up really slow...then drop it!

He stripped down to his garments and jumped in the High Line with Britt and me, tubes don't float when Grandpa lands on them.

He sent Kars inside with a dead golfer...Grandma's face was great :)

We were racing four wheelers once while the 'men' were cutting sylage, I was on Grandpa's NEW four wheeler...and I crashed it. He didn't do anything...just wanted me to say I was sorry. A few years ago I was riding one of his horses while we were hearding cows and he was on the fourwheeler. He kicked me off his horse and i drove the wheeler the rest of the day.

I remember the look on Karson's face when Grandpa said "come one Karson come help me take a shower" after he had surgery.

I remember seeing him hold Ky for the first.

I think he's taken almost every kid "on a ride" to Torrey and eatin Subway, and I think he's told everyone stories about the good ole' days.

All those memories are SO priceless...I hope NO ONE forgets any of them!

On September 27 we had an 80th birthday party for Grandpa! We ate lots of good food, sang happy birthday, took lots of pictures, talked about memories, and watched a slide show full of pictures of Grandpa's great Life!

Before the party Alissa and I took Ky out on the play ground...he LOVED it!
