Christmas surprise!

Thank you Lacie for posting!!!  I have been waiting to see him after gummie bear stage. 
We had the most wonderful and relaxing Christmas break, and our Christmas blessings were phenomenal!  As soon as I get the camera back from walmart, I will post the pictures of our Christmas Playhouse.  For those of you that don't know, Salisbury Homes has a program/giveaway each year, and someone nominated our family to receive one of the two playhouses.  Somehow, we were selected 'as deserving' of it, and on Friday, 2 days before Christmas, Aunt Kathy, Uncle Kevin, Dustin, Holly, and their two girls, Camden, a guy named Logan, a few other people from Salisbury that I didn't know, and a giant crane showed up and lifted a huge playhouse into our front yard.  Little Ben asked if they could sleep in it before it was even on the ground!  The kids were so excited!  Me and Ben too, I have to admit.  It is as tall as my 15 passenger van, has 5 windows, a little door, and power!!!  It has a front light and an inside light and an outlet inside.  It is bright purple with yellow trim.  After they set it in place and the kids were running in and out of it, they loaded it with presents!  My kids were so amazed!  They just kept coming!  We got some of the nicest things!  My husband looked so nice on Christmas Morning.  He got an entire dress outfit: a shirt with real cuff link things, a beautiful tie, super nice slacks, dress socks, a belt and black dress shoes...it was SO nice!!!  I seriously got the cutest boots I have ever seen!  Kayla agreed and let me know that she would wear them for me.  I got a beautiful flowy blue dress, a really pretty/sparkly headband, a silky shirt, jeggings (ya, I'm old and didn't even know there was such a thing lol), and more stuff that I was pampered with.  My kids all got similarly pampered.  I know Logan was so thrilled!  She got sparkles!!!  Skirt, shirts, boots...all sparkly!  She was in heaven and tries to wear some of it everyday.  Carter got duct tape...it was the only thing he freaked out about as he opened it.  I think his exact words were..."I love Santa!"  Morgan got music, perfume, a pair of head phones (not ear buds that hurt her ears) and things that I-think-I'm-a-teenager-even-though-officially-not-yet daughters love.  All my kids got at least 2 pair of shoes this year too.  The boys got cool stuff like footballs, Legos, things like that...plus clothes that they always need. So we have big plans for our playhouse.  We are going to start by covering the windows with Plexiglas to keep the weather out...then the kids just might move into it. lol

Clark Family Update

So I decided I am horrible at taking pictures but this is what I got.
This was about a month ago when we found out we are having a little boy. We got the thumbs up from our little Wesley!

We had a fantastic Christmas with Kami and Phil's family here with us. I didn't take any pictures of all of us. This is Tyson on our little ice rink we made out of our basketball court. We got the kids ice skates and lessons and our friend got them sticks. They are super excited. Tyson found it a lot harder then it looks.



This is Jake and Tyson fighting with there new swords and shields from Tylia's family. They had a blast.

And...this is Wesley last week sucking his thumb. I had a super fun ultrasound. He was very active. After he sucked his thumb for a bit, he also sucked on his toes. It was pretty cute. My mom got to come with me to my appointment and that was fun for me.


I loved having my family here over the last several weeks. Jake left again on Saturday so my house is very lonely.


I just had to post my kids in there Sunday clothes today. They looked so nice.


Thanks for sharing your family info Ty, I absolutely love reading it. Wish everyone else updated too!
