Family Gathers For Jamie's Farewell Sunday, January 30, 2005

On Feb. 9th, Jamie enters the MTC to prepare for his mission to the Calgary Canada Mission. Here the family is gathered on the day of his farewell...all of the spouses were her as was Jer's fiancee. On January 28th, the family including John Staley went to the Provo Temple for a session...the first time the family enjoyed an endowment session together ....Jamie took out his own endowments a week ago.

Here are the original 5 J's. They are pictured in a "jamie" send-off moment and will not gather again with all 5 together until Feb 9th, 2007.

At Jamie's farewell, the house was packed...friends from high school and college flocked to hear Jamie and visit with him at the house afterwards. Here is a picture of the close high school buddies...excepting those already departed on missions.

At the family gathering following the Farewell, Justin, John, and Jeremy displayed their new found guitar talents. Noone plays as well as Jamie, but they have two years to catch-up. Pictured are Justin, John and Jer.

And not to forget! Jamie turned 19th on the 22nd...he is pictured here opening up his presents. Many of them were useful for his mission, so he was a little light on the video games this time.

Christmas 2004 at the Robisons - A Great Memory Friday, January 7, 2005

Grandma and Grandpa had a Christmas to remember with each of the children, their spouses, and all the the grandchildren present. Here Grandma is reading a Christmas story to the oldest grandchildren.

What a treat to have Taylor, Tessa, and Emily with us for their first Robison Christmas. They brought joy into the world and brightened up our family gatherings.

We all welcome with love and open arms Karenin as our newest member - soon to be- of the family. April 22nd is the big event! The Salt Lake Temple is the location...the same as chosen by Grandma and Grandpa.

With our number 5 grandchild, Gracie...who has been replaced by three babies who are now the youngest, there is never a dull moment.

The guest of honor at this year's Christmas celebration is Jamie...who will be leaving us for the Calgary Canada Mission on Feb 9, 2005 and will not be with us for the next two Christmas celebrations. We miss him already and he hasn't even left.
