| 14 Nelsons took on Italy - It was really rough, as you would imagine.... |
so much fun to travel and hang out with these people I love- no kids, no schedule, and so much
great quality time
Let the games begin - brackets, championships and some trash talk
mom (in her cute tennis skinny jeans:) and dad giving doubles tennis a go - They ALMOST won the tournament:)
and intense game of KILL
Rachel, Kristen, Mandy, Sarah, Lauren and me
lunch on the hill - my mom was a pro of whipping up a yummy lunch out of nowhere
| Rachel was ready to take on those italian gypsy thieves |
| oh they are so cute and so awesome - The best parents in the world |
| uh, hello, 14 people need a bigger kitchen trash can than this itty guy - Magnum bar anyone? |

| exploring all the little hill towns in Tuscany - I think Lauren's face takes the cake |
If there is a hot spring anywhere in the vicinity, Sverre will find it - He google mapped this one - a big cascading hot spring waterfall - very cool
| rainy day in Montepulciano - where they filmed.....TWILIGHT, these people were totally starstruck, as you can see |
| they were cutting meat right off this pigs bum, putting it in a sandwich and voila! - uh, we passed on that lunch |
| Lauren, Rachel & Todd, Sverre and me, with some wayward bangs |
| The gardens where we stayed |
taking a sight-seeing break and probably getting ready for our 80th serving of gelato for the day
| We loved just staying in and eating yummy dinners, compliments of the ladies:) - some quality dinner time....until we began the scum/idiot games, then this table turned to war. |
look at those sweet jumping (and squatting) skills

| hanging out in Sienna |
| saw Rome with Rachel/Todd and Mick/Kristen |
church in Florence
hitting the outdoor market in Florence - my two babe sisters (the third one was at home in freezing Minnesota - missed you brooke!!)
When this kid asks to go to Italy? I can tell him sorry, but he's already been -

| Scottie was very proud of the flesh-colored fanny pack he was sporting - no gypsy was about to rob him, no way |
Thanks mom and dad for such a wonderful trip - It was amazing
