Christmas





Santa had many fun things in store for the Clark kids this year. We spent the Holidays here in Hurricane and Grandma and Grandpa Mills came down to spend it with us. On Christmas Eve Brianna woke up with a very nauseated stomach that lasted throughout the night. She finally settled down at 4am. Santa did definitely deliver this year and all the kids were pleased. Even though we were feeling a little blue from the flu. The virus seemed to trickle through everyone in the family. So we spent the whole break housebound!! It just forced us to rest and take it easy which was not such a bad thing. However all the loads of laundry seemed to be a drag for the Holidays. Through it all we were able to really talk to the kids about the true meaning of Christmas and reflect on all the things we are so blessed with as a family. This year has been eventful and another year of growth. We have learned much and laughed often. And we thank the Lord for our every blessing as we know that it is His hands that have made it all possible.

Thanksgiving

This year for Thanksgiving we spent the week at a condo timeshare in Snowbird Resort. The pool was outside and very warm so the kids got to swim in the snow. They loved it and thought it was so "cool". We spent time with both families and made some really great memories. This is also a really great time to reflect and ponder on all the things we should be grateful for. I know that Brian and I truly feel blessed and know that we couldn't be more blessed with health, love and happiness.
