Children's Museum Trip

The Wednesday before Katie's wedding we took a trip to the Children's Museum with Grandma Susie, Great Grandma Sandy, and Aunt Sara.   We all had a great time...including Clark who got his 2nd black eye (see previous post for the 1st black eye).  Clark figured both eyelids should be matching for the wedding ;)

Katie is now a Jewell

My sister - Clark's Aunt Katie - got married on August 6th......we were all a part of the wedding.  Matt was an usher, I was the Matron of Honor, and Clark was the cutest ring bearer ever.

Here's a first for you......

Clark got his first black eye a week before Katie's wedding........lovely!!!  He had a freak accident with a toy at daycare.  He was a trooper....swollen only a little bit and then it went purple and finally yellow and was almost gone for the wedding.  

July................wow you went fast!

July seems to have flown by for us at the Hoard house.............
