We spent a wonderful weekend up in Las Vegas at the end of September. We went to go see Steven and Emily and their new little place. It is so cute. We had so much fun playing games with Steven and Emily and even Ken and his girlfriend came over. One of the most enjoyed game was Guitar Hero on Steven's Play Station 2. We don't have any video games so when we get together with Steven that is a favorite thing to do with them.
We also just found out the Emily is expecting and we are so excited for her. We won't know what she is having for a while still.
Ashley and Nathan performed in their school’s annual Constitution Program. Grandma and Grandpa Gibb came down to see them and they really enjoyed the program. They did a great job and the singing and dancing was great. Ashley had a lead role as Miss Cardona from Arizona. The program was called “The Amerikids” and it had the appearance of being at a Convention with all the delegates from each State. It was really fun to see this because we have recently enjoyed watching the Republican Convention. The 7th and 8th grade girls performed at the end as the Clap Dancers and they are always fun to watch as the audience cheers and hollers. Great job and a fun evening.
Labor Day weekend our family joined Aunt Sandi, Uncle Curtis, Jason and Carrie and their family in a fun trip to the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. The guys had a great time with their ham radios as we caravaned up there. We stayed in log cabins that were next door to each other. It was so much fun as we took hikes, played games, watched videos, cooked outdoors and just enjoyed being together. Everyone had a great time and we even built out vocabulary as we played Balderdash. We had rain, snow, hail, fog, sunshine and even thunder and lightening. We thought the Nielson's were very brave to vacation with us.
