It's very hard to believe that we came into contact with your family 15 years ago! Your girls were listening to MXP and we had nothing in common. Then the Lord said... you will be the very best of friends. And there we were. As Amy and I grew, with Kate and Allison by our sides, oh the fun we had: Inland Waterways, tubing at Lake O, Fine Arts trips, and so much more!!
Yet another phase began as we all started to get married. It's hard to believe that this summer Amy and Andrew will both have their weddings to amazing people and 5 of the 6 of us with be married! Of course the best part of the marriages were and are the many, beautiful grandchildren :) And they came on fast!
Through all these phases you were there. Steady and true. Whether you were Kate's Dad, Mr. B, the owner of Mr. B's mechanic shop, or Julia's Papa. You were there smiling all the way. Thank you.
Have a blessed 60th birthday!!
Love,
Robert, Amanda, Madelynn and Luke Nelsen
