Clark's Journey 2011-2012

  Micah recieved a Build A Bear!  He had so much fun picking out the one he wanted and very seriously took the oath.   We made graham cracker houses!  The kids had so much fun working on a family house.   A group of us went caroling at a rehab center.  It felt wonderful to spread just a bit of Christmas with others in need.  We went with our dear friends the Winns, papa and grandma, Miss Jamie, and a few others.   The Koup family goes ALL OUT with decorating.  The have a MILLION houses and set up a scavenger hunt for the kids of special items on the houses.  They are so generous to invite everyone over to see every year.   We had a great time seeing the Brea lights with the Hogan family and our cousins.  Yay for hot chocolate!!!   We celebrated Christmas Eve with both sides of daddy's family.  

  Trying on Mommy's old Christmas dresses!   Celebrating Christmas at Aunt Cindy and Uncle Roger's house.  Papa tried to pull out Jeremiah's tooth!  Aunt Cindy always spoils the kids with gifts!   We took a trip to the Aquarium after dropping off the Operation Christmas Child boxes, but Mommy forgot the lunches! So, in order to not cancel the trip, we ended up at California Pizza Kitchen for a pizza.   Big brother holding on to little brother...   We visited Grandma Bonnie for her kindergarten class presentation and then worked on the older kids learning to do dishes!
