Catchin’ up!

Dear Caleb and Jacob,

This was a week of "catch up" for all of us. We had Stake Conference this morning so this afternoon, we plan to fill it by catching up on all the Conference Sessions that we missed from last weekend. We've been looking forward to this!

Sydney auditioned for the Green Canyon Idol but doesn't know yet if she's in it. She is slated to sing The National Anthem at this coming Friday night's football game.

Adam tried out for the Green Canyon swim team this week and made it. He's pretty excited but it is going to require a lot of work...even for us since he has to get up at 5:00 a.m. and we have to drive him to the Sky View pool at 5:30 am every morning. Then he has dry land practice every day after school as well!

Samantha has a lot of time on her bus commute to Providence so she is able to make a lot of new friends. She is definitely having a better experience at that new school than I thought she would.

Sariah is a quick learner on the violin. Even after being gone for a week, she has been able to keep up with everyone else. It's so fun to watch her and listen to her little rhymes and things to help them learn the strings.

It seems to have been a better week for Baxter but he still throws up occasionally. Maybe it's just part of getting old.

The old Kent Concert Hall at the university where we used to have our American Festival Chorus concerts got an expensive overhaul this last year. It is now called the Daine's Concert Hall. We'll be having most of our concerts there from now on. It is really cool and the acoustics are much better but I'm going to miss the pd Concert Hall for sentimental reasons. Oh well... We're rehearsing there now for our upcoming Grand opening Gala (concert) where they will dedicate it next week.

Well, there goes another week in the Gibbons' life. I hope yours was awesome and wish you the best for the week ahead!

Dad's been pretty busy this week with his corporate tax deadline which is coming up on October 15. We haven't seen him much, but we can't complain because we were able to spend a week with him earlier!

Love forever,
Mom
