Jackson Hole


We had fun at the pumpkin patch a couple weeks ago. Emmy is so proud of the white pumpkin she chose and shows it to everyone who comes over. She knows exactly which one is her pumpkin. She hasn't quite figured out why there is one for "baby sister", as we call her, because we have chosen a name, yet.



We took a weekend trip to Jackson Hole with Gib's family. The weather was wonderfully cool. It was beautiful there. Emmy LOVES animals. She would see a herd of buffalo in the distance and wave them toward her and say "Come here!"

Gib's highlight of the vacation was feeding the horses with Emmy. My most memorable experience was when the 3 Japanese tourists standing beside me took Emmy's hand and lifted her up in the window (pictured below) to pose in their picture. Didn't say a word, just took her. It was harmless, especially because they were surrounded by a lot of protective Gilbert's. But it certainly had me panicked. So much I didn't think to get a photo.

About Me

We are both thrilled to be parents. Our miracle baby was born on August 20, 2008. We are happy to have her in our family and cherish our time with her. I am a chemist at a rocket manufacturer who supplies propulsion for the NASA space shuttle. I got my bachelor's degree from the University of Utah in 2004. I love my job! Gib works at a microbiology testing lab. He is currently attending classes at the University of Utah to get a bachelors degree in biological engineering. We have been married since July 2002. We met at a U of U singles ward. Laura (my cousin) and I had just moved into an apartment together when Gib was assigned to be our home teacher. Needless to say, Gib was a dedicated home teacher. And I didn't mind at all!
