We are thrilled that 2014 is upon us and the coldest month of the year is ALMOST over. We have so much to look forward to in 2014 with many exciting milestones ahead of us.
In March, Camp Clark is headed to the Eastern Caribbean for a 7-Night cruise on the brand new Norwegian cruise ship, The Getaway, along with Grandma Good. We can hardly stand the anticipation, especially since it has been SO miserably cold. In May, Dave and I celebrate our 10-year wedding anniversary and hope to sneak in a quick adult-only getaway. Some wonderful friends have offered to take in our children for a few nights so we can escape together and enjoy some alone time. In July, we are headed to ND for the 4th and then off to SD for a weeklong summer vacation in the Black Hills area (in lieau of Leech Lake). Mid-July, somebody turns 50 years old and let's just say there is going to be lots to celebrate (50 is the new 40, don't you know?)! In fact, in October, I am joining a group of dear high school friends to celebrate our 50th birthdays in, where else, Vegas! A mini getaway with my lifelong friends whom I adore and always enjoy sharing time with. In early December, the children hit the double digits and turn 10 years old. Tears will flow heavily that day, you can be assured!!! Phone calls, cards, and joining me for a few shots of tequila are welcome to help me cope with the sadness of that day :) Seriously, it will be a milestone birthday and we will be thrilled to share in the joy with our 3 gifts from Above. Just think, only 8 more years and we will be empty nesters :( Kleenex please!
Then, a few weeks later, drum roll please..........another certain somebody in this camp turns 50 years old. That's right, Mr. David Jon Clark joins the 50's club. Since Dave is not one to celebrate, it will probably be a quiet night at home by the fire with warm milk and cookies. Yeah right! We all know Dave MUCH better than that :) Something tells me we just may have to host a party.
You see....lots to look forward to indeed! May God bless each and every one of you and your loved ones in 2014 and grant you health, hope, love, peace, joy and comfort, in good times and challenging times. He is always there for us and we can rest assured He has our backs. Below are just a few photos from January to share with you of basketball, dance and The Toots.
