AnnAlyse and Grant are HOME!!!

Hooray! We have our Nannies back home! Like I said, Aubrea and I drove her back to BYUI (fondly referred to as Ydaho at our house, thank Bare) and we packed her up while she took her finals and we drove away she did cry a bit. She has had a very positive experience there and has loved attending her classes as well as the Temple weekly. She's been so blessed in so many ways - we're just glad to have her back!!! Dad (Bare) wanted to celebrate her homecoming so we all went to see the new movie, "Monsters vs. Aliens". Papa and I got to hold Brock the whole time. There was even one point that I looked over at Bare while he was snuggling Brock and they were both asleep - so cute. AnnAlyse even had a date right when she got home. She's got more lined up for the next few weeks - sheesh - that girl!

Grant also got home from his San Francisco Band trip (unfortunately we said hello and goodbye all in the same breath. I think Bare and Grant survived just fine without us.). Woods Cross took First Place in every category except for choir. It's the Heritage Festival and Woods Cross defeats everyone every year. Grant loves being involved at two different High Schools. We feel more like a family now!

Easter was wonderful!!! I LOVE the Holiday's that focus on CHRIST! It's always good to have the family come over and spend that time with us. We went Easter Caroling to the Widows in the ward (thanks Michael and Jenny for joining us) and left them with an Easter goodie. Brook called to tell us of her Easter adventures. I've decided she's much more of a super mom than I ever was as well as than she gives herself credit. Eliza had a little problem and Brook had time to wash and dry Eliza's Easter dress TWICE before church ever even started! Amazing!!! Porter just hangs out and observes it all. 

How blessed we are to have our family, faithful in the Church and with firm testimonies of what it's really all about! How blessed we also are to have children marry into our family and bring us soooo much joy and love! Check out our other kids blogs!

It is always a blessing to be with family!! I was up in Utah this past weekend and was walking out of the Mt. Timp Temple and there was LeRoy. It was great to see him!! I sure do love the Gibbons family and marvel at all of you!!!
