We are a fun family. Here are a few videos of us just shooting the breeze; your glimpse of the Nickle fam, a day in the life.

First, we have a precious video of Bryson. He was teaching me what to do when you're getting your picture taken if you want to end up with a funny face in the photo. I promised him I was just taking a picture... but... surprise! I was taking a video! Classic.

And now we have a couple of videos showcasing typical behavior while we are all just hanging out. Seriously. Typical. Everyday. Behavior.

justin's january

January 2010 has really belonged to Justin, and rightly so. This month he turned 19, had his farewell {post coming soon}, we went mini-golfing as a family before he leaves, tonight he'll be set apart as a missionary, and tomorrow he'll be entering the MTC. The month belongs to him!

Here are some photos & video clips from our family day at Trafalga yesterday:

Justy:

Gearing up for mini-golf:

Trafalga's indoor course is now a glow-in-the-dark, black light course. Pretty fancy.

Braden & Bryson putting, while Zander says, "Melissa, take a picture. I'm levitating this ball."

All in all it was a fun day. Braden, Suzie, and Melissa all got a hole-in-one on the 18th hole, so we won free tickets to the XD theater at Trafalga. Melissa gave her's to Justin so he could go with Suzie. She is SO nice. :)

We all played arcade games after golfing- pretty fun!
