LABOR DAY OLYMPICS 2008

Every year Jimmy's mom has the "Labor Day Olympics". She comes up with fun events we all play in her backyard. They are a combination of amusement park games and made up ones that the kids, and adults, love to play. This year was exciting because of the actual Olympics having just finished up. Cameron thinks that the Labor Day Olympics are held by everyone so he was eager to invite anybody he knew to this annual event. Before you think that these games are just for kids, you don't know the Clark family. This is serious business with more that just gold medals to be won.

The olympics are kicked off with an actual opening ceremony, minus the fireworks and thousands of people. The olympic anthem plays while the kids march and wave to their many fans (parents). Cameron was the torch bearer.


One of the new events this year involved blowing a surf board down a rain gutter full of water. This one was harder than it looked.

This event involved trying to keep flying water balloons out of the bucket. While members of both teams were throwing the balloons these two heavy hitters made it difficult for anyone to score.

Cameron getting his gold medal. Jimmy is still wondering why he did not get one. Maybe next year.

Kaitlyn received a medal too, but was much more interested in the bag of candy that was provided.

Thanks to Grandma Heidi for another great year.

HOMESTEAD 2008

Thanks to Jenni's parents we had another fun weekend up at the Homestead. We helped them celebrate 30 years of marriage. Congrats to them and thanks for such a great time.

TEMPLE SQUARE

We have been to this exhibit before and had so much fun that we went back. The exhibit is designed to help the kids know that they are children of God. There are a lot of fun activities for the kids to do and we would recommend it to all. We finished the night by getting ice cream. For those of you that know us you know that we were a little bit cautious with Cameron and him getting dirty. We tried with Kaitlyn to be the same way but gave up on her shortly after birth. Her personality is a little bit more independent.
