So we made it back from France and had a busy summer hiking, working, rocking peoples socks off, family reuniting and lastly MOVING!! As you may know by now Brady is attending law school at UNLV -University of Nevada Las Vegas. So we packed up our lives and moved to Vegas.
We hiked to Mount Olympus with our friends Steve and Tara Anderson, Steve's dad, Joe Wallis, and a friend of Tara's who is much MUCH more in shape than us all and hiked way far ahead... anyway I forget his name but he was also there.
On the 4th Bearproof made their yearly appearance at Riverton Town Days. They did great for only practicing together two or three times in one year!
Brady's brother's family came out to support.
After the show...
Then it came time for the Orme Family Reunion up at Four Sisters Camp in Robertson Wyoming. It was a great family get together. All of the Steve Orme family attended, all of the Dean Brown family attended minus Melinda, and two from the Robert Biddle family came (Bob and John). The reunion was filled with bat trapping and mouse hunting, a talent show, great meals, and many many "trips".... There were trips to Fort Bridger and Mountain View. Trips to the spring for the tri-daily water run. And lastly there were many trips to the toilet because we had 7 people get some sort of bug while we were up there.

Easton was so cute as a little cowboy.
What a handsome little Garrett

Preparing for the talent show
The kidos
Cardboard is always more fun.... there is actually a built-in slide inside the cabin they could be playing on.
Shannon showing off her moves... surprisingly not part of the talent show.

The Ormes put on quite the show...

This is the Four Sisters Camp. My mom named it after her 4 daughters.

Pony rides
This is a killer video for those who have never seen a pony ride before.

The Briggs (Brady's parents Ron and Ann) were so great to come and help us move from Salt Lake City, Utah to Henderson, Nevada. Ron packed out dresser, nightstand and filling cabinet super duty. That's a tarp and plastic wrap to keep out the rain. It was dry as a bone when we got it home. Thanks Ron!
Our ride to Vegas was smooth sailing until we got to the gorge. Three and a half hours we spent on a length of road that should take 15 minutes. People were getting out of their cars because at times we were at a dead stop for increments of 5-10 minutes at a time. The picture below is an Ron... what a rebel.
Traffic backed up for miles.
We made it to Henderson safely and we got all settled into out room at the Briggs house on Sunday. Brady started law school orientation on Wednesday also on Wednesday I had an interview and they offered me a job. So it's all gone so smoothly and we feel like its meant to be.










Aw man, I missed it all! It's ok. We'll be to Vegas sooner or later to visit. Best of luck with everything.
