We love to see the Temple

Mom, Dad, Curt & Shayla took a road trip up to the Temple this past Saturday. While up there we got to see Melanie who was up with the Student Ward. It was a BEAUTIFUL day at the Temple.
Loving parents (Dad is almost smiling even!).
Beautiful Fall day.
This is the "We are off like a herd of turtles" picture!

Gibb Girls

The St. Louis Gibbs were up for Labor Day weekend, the girls are getting so big and are so cute!

Labors on Labor Day

For Labor Day dad rented a back-hoe Tractor to take out some trees. He also rented Curtis and Tyler as his cheap labor. (They missed you Riley!)This is my favorite picture.. Dad with his hands on his hips watching Ty, it's pretty much how most of the work happened.Curtis posing with one of the trees.
Dad posing as Big Foot, I think.

Happy Birthday Mel!

Tonite was Melanie's 20th Birthday! Filled with Chinese food, presents and "Green Stuff"!

The big 2-0, except Dad asked "Your'e 110?!". (Unfortunatley she blew out all her candles, better luck next year!)
Melanie- waiting for me (Bug) to bring her presents one by one.
Presents from faithful Kalie!
This year Mom and Dad will celebrate thier first year of not having a teenager in the house! Yesterday Melanie said, "Dad, tomorrow I won't be a teenager so we have to start getting along!". No word yet on if that has started happening!
Tonite Dad was heard singing, "No more teenagers, no more hormone issues!!". To which Melanie replied, "Dad, I am turning 20- not into a BOY!".
Melanie has made us smile and laugh for twenty years, I am so grateful for this last addition to our wonderful family!
Love you all!- Bug
