A Visit from Gib's family!

Gib's family was able to visit from Pennsylvania.  Emmy and Gabby loved spending time with their grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins.  Here are a few of our favorite moments from the visit:


Ghost Towns!
We toured through Tooele county looking for abandoned Ghost towns.




 Below is a picture of the "buried treasures" we found with metal detectors.  Despite our inability to strike it rich, everyone had a great time being outside and the kids loved digging for treasure.

Good Food!
We had some fantastic cook-outs.  Phillip made delicious bacon-Swiss burgers and Gib made Tri-tip that was to-die-for!  My favorite part of the night was an enactment from a creative 13 year-old.  Love you Nick!



 










Gateway Discovery Center!
This place is so creative.  Fun for the kids and adults, together.



 It was the best when Gib was made into a robot-man.

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!
