Wolf Scout!

Joshua earned his wolf scout award Tuesday the 27th with one gold and two silver arrow points. We were so proud of him and he sure enjoys scouting. Hey Josh, I bet Dad didn't even make it to a Wolf. You're already beating him!!

Thanks for the Super Cool Neckerchief slides Aunt Anna Lisa!!! Everyone is so jealous.

Here is Joshua's first Pinewood Derby. I'm so proud of how he behaved. His car never won a race (we've figured out why and will be ready next time!) and was very gracious. I couldn't have been prouder of his sportmanship. His car won the Rock Star award for it's cool paint job. Uncle Brad was very nice to help us make such a cool car.

Baby Quilt

This is the project I have to get done before

baby comes. I made a girl and boy quilt when

Katie was born so I only had to make a girl quilt

this time. I love the butter yellow of the fabric.

I worry that the green makes it too boyish but we'll

see. Now I just have to sew it together and quilt

it. I only have 6 weeks to get it done!

Look what Katie can do!!

Here is Katherine's new trick. She runs after her brothers while crossing those baby blues and the boys can't run away they're laughing so hard. She's a pistol!


Here she is in her new bed. We wanted to transfer her to her big girl bed a while before the new baby kicks her out of her crib. It's pretty funny because our kids are not climbers and she still will not get out of this bed until we open her door and let her out. She just sits in and yells "Mommy, Daddy" until we go in. I'm so thankful we've never had a "monkey" baby.

I still love him folks!!!

Here's to 10 years and still going strong!

Time for Christmas

Christmas Eve we watched Polar Express. I can't believe Jeff stayed under that blanket for as long as he did.



Here are the kids X presents to be opened on Christmas Eve.

Kyle tracked Santa on NORAD's website at least every minute.

Opening Presents with Patrick, Brad, Grandma and Grandpa Clark.

Here are pictures of the first presents the kids chose to sit down and play with.

Katie loves her Fisher Price Princess Castle. To quote her, "It has a princess and a prince."

Kyle chose an art kit that came with about 150 pieces. He was in heaven.

Josh chose to put together his Bionicle. Just like Josh-tackling a puzzle of a million little pieces.
