Kim's off

Kim is off to Honduras for nine months. Of course she had to have some last minutes touches of love, such has sitting on the floor at a Japanese restaurant with Joseph, Blake and Spencer to eat with chop sticks and...


having Aurelia, Summer, Jessica, David, Victoria, Mary, and Stephen pamper her for three hours reading her stories and doing a full spa treatment of pedicures, manicures, facial, head and back rub.


Here are the spa workers relaxing with the finished product. Doesn't her skin look lovely?


Is this a teary farewell?

Layover in Layton

Here are the new Rigbys cutting cake in Layton.


We got to greet all of Caroly's relatives that couldn't make it to Florida. Sister Diana and her husband Merlin...


brother Larry and his wife Rose...


sister Kathy and her husband Reed...


brother Dondavid and his wife Renee...


and uncle Oren and aunt Byrnie.

Some old time friends also stopped by: Caroly's first BYU roommate Lacy and her husband..

and former Gainesvillers Sorensens with their new boy after four girls...


and Camilla Tacogdoy Fairbanks and her husband Derek and her brother JT. There were plenty of others but I wasn't quick enough with the camera. Former Gainesvillers and relatives filled about a third of the cultural hall.


Someone forgot to tell the car decorators that Debbie and Eric have been married for two weeks already.

Kicking around the Kid's Place

When you are in Salt Lake, it's 20 degrees and there is 4" of ice covered snow, what do you do? Play in the water at the kid's museum, of course!


Here's Allie showing Maddie and Daddy some principles of water dynamics.


Kim does some grocery shopping with Allie. What's the nutritional value of plastic veggies?


I think Cassie is overdoing the asparagus shopping.


If you can find the horses, you can find grandma.


Is all this fun driving Grandpa up the wall?

New Doos

Mr. Cool


Bangs need trimming?

Gone Fishin'

Of course if Robert is visiting,there has to be a fishing trip.

Rigby Rumble

Why are they jumping for joy?


Why are they sitting around watching football?


Why are they just standing around?


Mom just needs to get them organized...


to create bouquets and boutonnieres...


make wedding cakes...


and decorate the hall...


for Eric and Debbie to get married. Do they look ready?


All that work makes a guy hungry...


and the crew too.



Looks like they made it to the temple on time.


The Thompson nieces and nephews were there to welcome Eric to the family...


as were Debbie's brothers and sisters...


and the proud parents of the bride and groom.


Here's the complete horde.


What's better than a dance with low lights to set the mood?


Doesn't the cake look great?


Of course, the couple gets to cut the first slice...


before they make their bubbly get away. (Click on the picture for the full effect.)


Are Eric's parents leaping for joy now that it is over?

Ode to Joy 19
