Bear Lake Reunion Part 2 & Family Pictures!

We had soooo much fun on our trip to Bear Lake for the Clark family reunion.  I had uploaded all the pics I had at the time but just found more!! My awesome brother-in-law, Ammon, uploaded a ton that I have not yet posted that are incredible. I needed to make sure these were in my journal as well :) Here's a few more pics and our Clark family pics from the trip!

A picnic lunch with most of the men and kiddos while the rest of us shopped. Nothing like a little Wendy's and park time.

Ready for a ride?  Oh yea! These kids could ride everyday all day long :)

Boat fun! So happy Ammon had a pic of us on the tube :) The boys LOVED every minute!

Koudelka's take on the tube and thoroughly enjoyed it!

Williamson crew was so fun to watch.  There was not a lot of weight on that tube, haha. The kids loved it!

Boat time!

Paddle boards were also a big success. The kids loved getting rides on the lake.

The original Clark family.  Wow, how it has grown over the years!! What an awesome family to be a part of :) 

Bear Lake was truly a remarkable vacation.  We had such a fun time with everyone! We still talk about it.  The boys loved playing with their "friends" and can't wait to see them all again soon.  I hope we can have a reunion like this more often.  There is nothing like a little time away with the people you love! Now we just have to set up the Spung side vacation! :) 

9 Months Old! Miss Quinn Marie

Little Miss Quinn is 9 months old! Where has the time gone?! My baby is getting soooo big!! She is seriously the happiest, smiliest baby you will ever meet.  She adores her brothers and laughs with them often.  The boys LOVE making her laugh. She absolutely loves eating, sleeping and playing. Just what a 9 month old should be doing, right? It's hard to not kiss on her incredibly squishy cheeks. She has seven teeth with more on the way.  She is not yet crawling but dang, you can tell she wants too especially while watching Beckham and Jack run around :) She just wants to be apart of all the fun. We love everything about this little angel and are so grateful to have her in our family.  It would not have been or felt complete without her :)

Precious Baby Girl 

So Sweet! I absolutely LOVE to cuddle with this little princess. 

Yay!! She is waving now and it is THE cutest thing you will ever see!

How could you not love this baby :) 

She loves saying dada and we are still working on mama. I feel like she'll say Jack before Mom, haha.

Cute, Cute, Cute 

Heart Eyes! 

We had such a fun photo shoot celebrating her nine month mark, in her already exciting first year of life. I can't believe she will be ONE at the end of December! Love you Q!! PS stop growing please :)

Clarks Bought A House!

Big, big step in the Clark household.  We actually set down some roots here in El Paso!  We could not be more excited about our new home.  We absolutely LOVE it and it is perfect for our family of five.

When we first started the process of buying a home in the middle of June I thought it would take FOREVER to find the home that would fit for us.  I was pretty particular on a few things I wanted and needed for our everyday life.  After only a few weeks of looking online and going out with our realtor a couple Saturdays, we found our little hidden gem.  We moved into our house on Preston's 30th bday! July 31st :) We have been traveling quite a bit since then so we are excited to be home and enjoying our new digs for a while.

This beauty is a 4 bed 2 bath ranch.  I really wanted a ranch style home instead of a 2-story.  After living in a town home where I was going up and down constantly and with the kids being up and down; I wanted something easier to manage as far as keeping track of all the littles :)

I also told our realtor that we would be ok with a cosmetic fixer upper and this definitely is.  We are currently in the process of finishing up a few big changes but once we are done I will do a before and after blog.  We have been so excited and thrilled with the changes that we have made so far.

Owning a house has been a dream! To be honest I feel more like an adult now then when we had our kids, haha.  Even though decorating gives me a little anxiety it has been a lot of fun knowing that it is our home that I get to decorate now.  I am super slow in this area because I have a hard time envisioning just what I want.  There will be many hours spent on Pinterest I am sure :) So far we have a clock and a picture of Christ on the wall, haha.  It's a start right?!

An El Paso sunset from our front yard.  Gorgeous!!

Our home is in a quiet a neighborhood and sits on a cul-de-sac.  We have incredible neighbors that smile and say hi whenever you see them.  At times you can here a train going by which is just like home for me :)

We look forward to spending a few years here and love our little ranch we get to call home.
