About us

Robert is a computer 'geek' and I say that in the most affectionate way possible! He keeps our home network up and running. Right now he works for Convergys in Orem in their technical support department for Netapp. Rob has the most common sense out of anyone I've ever met. He also is one of the most 'creative' people I have EVER known. Within minutes of getting a 'new toy' he's got it taken apart figuring out how to 'maximize' it's potential.

Heather is a 'die hard' animal lover. Rob is VERY tolerant of her zoo. Right now she has 6 cats, 2 dogs, 5 birds, 1 RES Turtle, 1 Betta Fish, 1 Tank of guppies (see The Thompson Zoo) for more about their daily adventures. Rob is very understanding, and coming from a background of not really an animal lover other than birds, he's quite taken with them :) Heather works full time for her father at Camelot Pet Resort, Spa & Health Center in Bountiful, she is the Manager and Veterinary Technician. Heather is also an Independant Representative for several direct sales companies, she offers Gourmet Food, Scrapbooking, Pet Supplies, Candles and Natural Home Care products.

Family Barbeque

My family helped us IMMENSELY when we moved, Danny, Michael, Jonathan and my dad all came out last week and helped us pack and load up a Budget Truck. We got everything moved, then my dad helped us move a washer/dryer that night but it was too heavy to move downstairs especially since Rob could barely stand because of his gout. Anyways to thank my family (Danny especially since he was down here from Canada) we put together a last minute barb-q and invited everyone over. Everyone but Jen & Mike were there. It was fun.
Here are some pictures:

Nathan
He's not excited or anything? He just turned Six on the 23rd of July But honoring a Briggs family tradition (whenever we'd get together we'd celebrate the current and/or prior months birthdays), we sang to Nate as well :) He's too cute for words!

Rob (his b-day is on Sunday the 24th)

I think Nate is enjoying the cake what do you think?

P.S. Don'tcha just love the new layout? Heather found it while surfing some of her 'daily' reads blogs.
