Tuesday was our Gift Exchange! We had a hard start time of 9:30 am! Josh and Mal left St. George at 5am so they could be there. John and Tracie came from Johns parents. Joel – woke up sick! and so he just dropped off gifts. Shannon and Tommi rolled in right on time. Sean and Jana too. Kevin and Liz joined zoom from their house.

Mom and Dad started – they gave all of us Robertson shirts!! They gave each of the kids a toy and then each of the girls a basket full of fun: lotion, scrunchies, m and m’s, a shirt, hymn book – each of us got similar but different. And then they did a white elephant type for all the boys! They opened and stole and we had a blast! We gave mom a new iphone 12 mini and we gave Dad a new recliner chair for their new house. Then we had the cousins do their gift exchange!

And then we did the Sibling gift exchange. Some peeps always go a little crazy on these gifts. And we always have some good gifts and some good laughs.

Some of the gifts: Joel and Megan gave Ben and Kevin “Hale Pong” – a new ping pong game that they made up and made! Jana got me a sweatsuit and pens. Tracie gave Ryan a “Gotta Trust Someone” Rook sweatshirt, Michael knit a sweater for Jana, Rob gave brady a bunch of fun decor, Christy gave Kelsey a sweatsuit, Ryan gave Rob Cabin Games, Joel got the Taco Bell Sweater, I got Tommi a speaker and Otrio, Ben gave tracie country CDs and a fun farm shirt. Kel and Brady did puzzles for Christy and Mal. Josh got something Kings and so did John… and that’s all I can remember right now! (Thats what happens in 3 weeks) And Michael won the wrenches and used them to open all future gifts!

We finished at the perfect time to grab a snack and get ourselves and the kids ready for the wedding. The wedding was at 3:00 in Pete and Amanda’s backyard!
