PUPPIES!!!!

O.K. sorry it’s taken so long to get this post several have been asking about them so here they are. We had puppies on Friday night. Tibbie had acted kind of funny all day just hanging out in her kennel, that evening we went to the game and I ran home and checked on her during the game. After the game we made popcorn and everyone started watching a movie. I went in and got on the computer, Tebbie came in and I looked down, there was a puppy still in the sac at my feet and Tibbie was looking at me like what is this and what am I supposed to do with it. It was kind of scary at first. But anyways we got 4 little puppies ALL GIRLS ROBERT SAY'S, HE JUST CAN’T WIN!!!! So it definitely is a house full of girls.

Tibbie 3 weeks left..

Today Tibbie kept bring a puppy in the kitchen and setting it on the floor. I think it was so I would pick them up, take and put them back in the kennel cuz she didn't want to be in there alone.
One just hanging out with Syd.

Tibbie is such a good Mom.

Holiday Happenings

Wow, I can't believe the holidays are over. I look forward to them for so long and then BAM there here and gone. It has been sooo fun to have Kaycie home for the break and we get to keep her for a little longer. CSI doesn't start back up till the 19Th. ( although she's working and thinks maybe this adult thing isn't all it cracked up to be.)

Living in Soda you either have to love the snow or find things you love to do in the snow. So we had lots of snow fun...Kaycie and her Dad on the slope while we went night skiing. (Although the girls all board now.)

Quincie, Sydnie& Kaycie

Sydnie and Robert on top of Sherman on one of the snow machine trips. It was a beautiful Day. If you enlarge the Picture and look right above Syd's head you can (hopefully) see the Tetons they were gorgeous.

Sue with Nic and Steff's amazing beautiful Baby girl Kendyl. The day of her blessing, thanks for shareing. We love you guys.

Merry Christmas

This is silly but we are silly..

Remember were not professionals but we stayed at a holiday Inn last night.

Roberts first Ride

Robert and Bob on top.

Robert went on his first snow machine ride of the year. He went with Wade, Stove Bob & Wes. They went to Grays River WY. Beautiful day though we need more snow. Sue is sooo excited that snow machine season is finally her. YA YA. "Polaris Rules" (or that's what Stove Bob says.)

Sister, Mom, Cousin, Grandma Party

CLARK COVEN!

State Champs

I know its been a while since we’ve posted, but we are in mourning. We always have a hard time at the end of the cross country season. It takes a couple of weeks to readjust. This one was an exceptionally tough one. As most everyone knows the Soda Spring Cross Country Teams did Great at State the boys earned third and The girls brought home the State Championship trophy . That’s three in a row. (Setting a Soda record, of the first three consecutive State Championships.) Quincie earned a 11 th place medal. All though she was disappointed in her performance. Her foot had been really bothering her more than just her tendon problems. When we fond out that she was running on a stress fracture. At that point there was nothing to do but run on it and tough it out. And if anyone can run though pain that’s our Quinie. Which was part of her disappointment but she fought though it and finish the best she could. So because of the fractured foot basketball is out. The hardest thing shes had to let go of. BUT WOW!! What great support we had at State Thanks everyone.

Kaycie & Quincie before the race.

Tanner Hawkins (Cousin, Nephew) ran at state and PR way to go Tanner your awesome.

Visits

We Had a fun weekend our cousins from Park City came up to visits us it was so fun to have them here for a couple of days.

Kaycie came home from college for a few day. We were so excited. Sydnie could hardly sand it till she got here. She kept looking out the window, when she finally arrive she was full of lots of hugs & Kisses. Kaycie is doing good and it's fun to see her growing. We Love and Miss her Always..

On to State.

Soda Girls Win Districts!!!

Yesterday was districts. The Cardinals did Great. The girls took home the 1st place trophy placing 1 through 9. Quincie came in 2nd. Good Job Quinie. While the boy took second. So now on to State next week in Boise. Our cousin Tanner in Weiser. Took 4th so we can wait to see Tanner run in Boise.

Top 10.

Cross Country

We are well under way with the Cross Country season. It has been very exciting. Quincie is doing quite well this year. And has brought home some new hard ware. On Thursday we head to Districts in Aberdeen. The Cardinal Cross Country dominates on the girls side. And the boys have been doing well, they need to run GREAT on Thursday. But I have no doubts That they can do it. I'll keep you posted.

Look At that pack of Red not to bad, Huh!

Sydnie had a fun Cross Country season hers has finished witch is always hard to see it come to an end.

Syd racing at Sandy Downs. By the time she crossed the finish line her shoes weighed more than she did. She is fun to coach and Sue is so glad to be one of the Coaches of such a wonderful group of kid. Why to go Syd your awesome.

Slipping away

As we're watching the colors change on the mountains around us. And feel fall in the air, we were reflecting back on the summer and the fun things that we did.

We hiked to the top of Angles Landing. Wow! kind of scary. (if your Robert) If it is some thing you've done, you know what I mean. If not it is some thing you should do.

On the 4Th of July the Clark clan ran in the 5k. A pretty good looking bunch don't you think. They took 2 1st, 1 2ND, and one 3rd, Not too bad. Thanks for running with us it was a lot of fun. So plan on doing it next year.

Roberts high light for summer 08, was bare foot water skiing. It was really cool. We loved watching him do this. Best of all was the stop. 41 to 0 mph in a split second.


Hiking below the Tetons we tasted our first watermelon snow. It really does taste like watermelon. We hiked 18 miles, it was so pretty, we are so thankful for this wonderful land we live in. We went with the Sieperts and Myers, It was a day we will always remember.

Back to School

On Tuesday Kaycie was off to school at CSI. Sue and the girls took her up and got her all settle in. Their were a few tears, but we are all excited for her. Her room looks real cute and she seems to have some fun roommates. Kaycie we love you and well miss you around the House.

Then on Wednesday Quincie and Syd were off to school. This is the hardest day of the year for their Mom. Always a few tears on this day. They are growing up to fast. (note Sue's pretty sunflowers.)

Bear Lake

Yesterday we went to Bear Lake with Tonya and her two cuties. It was a beautiful day. The water was warm, and the sand felt good between your toes. Thanks, Tonya for inviting us to share the day. It was GREAT!

Ragnar Relay

Kaycie and Quincie after finishing the Ragnar. It took the team 25 hr. 14min. Out of 548 finishing teams they placed 62. Good job ladies.

Syd, on her way to Cheer camp.
What A Cute Cheer leader.

Getting Started

We are blog stokers!! So we thought it would be a good idea to start our own.

Wow, where did the summer go. In June Kaycie & Quincie ran the Regnar Relay. 181 miles with the high school team. what an amazing thing to be part of. Robert ran up the back side of the ragnar with Kaycie, 3.6 mile with a 9% grade.

We had lots of camps, girls camp Basketball, cross country, cardette, and cheer camp. Kaycie will be leaving for college either this Friday or Monday. But Syd thinks thats going to be ok because she gets her room.
