Big Omer Breakfast Reunion

While we were in Utah we got to go to our Big Omer Reunion.  They did a breakfast potluck at a church.  It was fun to see everyone and hang out as a family.

Talbot Christmas Party 2012

This is at the Talbot Christmas Party!  We did it at Mom & Dad Omer's house this year and we were all in town because of the Omer Family Reunion.  I'm still trying to remember why we have each person with each dessert here.  I think Amy made the one in front of her.  Charlotte's bib matches the Christmas cake penguins.  And I think Aunt Gina made the other cake?  :0)  

Silly Jacob! :)  (Dan, Charlotte, Roz and Gina in the background.) 

It was so fun to be all together.  This is everyone!  Even Gina & Rex, Tammy & Jay (Mom's 2 sisters and their spouses were there.) So glad we were able to be up there this year!

1st Omer Talent Show

So, we tried it out.  Our first Omer Talent Show. Man, we have a lot of talent!  I have a bunch of videos of everyone, but until I get time to edit them down a little, I won't post them yet.  It was super fun!

Jacob and bunch of Omer grandchildren played the piano.  They all did such a fantastic job!

We had a few skits here and there.

Matt sang a gorgeous song for us!

Heather saved the day and played the piano to accompany Dave on his Clarinet.  He had been SO busy with his first semester of teaching and being in school on top of that, that he didn't have much time to even think about his talent. But they both did a fantastic job! Thank you Heather!

Jenny...just look at her!  She is the definition of talent! :)  Really- she made our matching family t-shirt design and she face painted all the grandkids faces!! Abby chose flowers below. Huge talent!

JPL Open House

This was at the annual open house for NASA JPL- Jet Propulsion Laboratory which is in California.  It was PACKED!  Had some pretty sweet stuff to check out.  This one was a model of a mars rover I think.  I won't try to go any further with the explanation.  lol

They had a little demo model they had roll over the kids.  The little one with the red stripe shirt is our nephew, Jacob.  

Silly Dave....RUN!!

The Beach

It was overcast and a bit windy, but we decided to hit the beach anyway.  It was really fun.  The kids LOVED it.   Huge sandbox and fun waves to play in! 

The boys played some ball...

...while the kids watched.

Some of us (including myself) bundled up and enjoyed just being there and watching. This is my sister in law Amy and her little boy, Gideon. 

I forgot Joey's jacket, so we borrowed Abbies...he did look like an ugly little girl, but at least he was warm and not crying! lol

This is our nephew/cousin out pretending to surf the waves!  :)
