Hey everyone - if you are still out there! I was shocked when I saw that I haven't posted any blabbing in a week! What the heck ... well I guess that is what happens when life (aka work) gets in the way! We did have a good week though and now we are about to start another one tomorrow! UGH! Not too much has been going on since last Sunday except that our neighbor Amy finally had her 3rd baby!!! We are so excited to welcome Baby Nora Marie to the world and the neighborhood! That makes 3 girls under the age of 4 for Amy and Steve! Oh my! I will post a picture of her as soon as I get one!

So other than that we are in the home stretch for school to be over and summer to begin! Jaden has 3 1/2 more days as a 1st grader and then summer vacation! WHOO HOO! Tomorrow she is taking a field trip to the library and a local park and then we are picking her up right after she gets off the bus to get her cast (hopefully) removed! I hope it is healed well enough and corretly to have it removed - if not 2 more weeks! So cross your fingers!!! Tomorrow my Mother In Law Carol is coming up to spend the night because my daycare is closed Tuesday so she is staying home with Charlotte and picking Jaden up from school - THANK YOU CAROL - we are lucky she works as a nurse and works 3rd shift ... not so sure she is thankful for that when it is time to get up for work but we LOVE IT!

We spent yesterday (enjoying) the rain - we have been SO dry here that a day of rain, though dreary, was welcomed!! So what did we do - we hit the mall and then Chuck E Cheese ... we met up with Jolene, Jeff, the girls and Jo's mom! It was packed due to the rain but the girls had fun ... Charlotte rode her very first carousel but Jolene took the pictures so once she sends them to me I will post them!! LOVE YOU JO!!!

So other than that boring stuff above we had a good week ... oh and Monday Jaden, Charlotte and I went to watch Hannah's final gymnastics show and on the way home we stopped at McDonald's - Jaden and I PROMPTLY lost out appetites when we saw this in front of us at the drive-thru! ICK!!! Jaden kept asking where the 'rest' of it was and why were his eyes open!! Gross!

(ABOVE: I think this is an elk head ... we aren't the 'outdoorsey' type so this is not something we see often - especially at the McDonald's Drive-Thru!)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Well have a great week everyone! Hopefully I will post again before next Sunday! Oh and Jason and I will be married 10 years on June 19th and I have a HUGE HUGE HUGE Surprise in store for him and I am fighting every ounce of myself to NOT spoil it ... I can't wait to tell everyone what it is! But not yet ---

Love ~ The Clark Family of Four ~ Rebekah, Jason, Jaden and Baby Charlotte!
