We went to church with Jake's family today, Adeline wore the Christmas dress from Grams and Gramps. One Happy little family!
While in Colstrip, Adeline met her new best friend Sophia! Sophie is Janalee's roomate who stayed here with us. She is from Brazil! I wish we could take her home with us, Adeline just adored her!

Jake seemed to think it was funny to tackle me every time he got a chance! here we are two snow angels in love!
Josh tied up a car hood to the side by side, and had us flying and holding on for dear life! Aren't we a bunch of red necks! It was so much fun though!
Merry Christmas everyone!
Yesterday we celebrated our Christmas as a family. We are heading out to Colstrip on Christmas day to see Jake's family. We wanted Adeline to be able to actually play with her toys before we head out! She got a pink Kawasaki four wheeler, and she LOVED it! We had a really great christmas and read the Christmas story out of our SUPER old German bible and wrote our little letters to Jesus, then sang Silent Night. It was so fun to watch Adeline's face as she opened her presents and see her eyes just pop with excitement! We are really looking forward to actually be with some family, since we have been married we haven't been able to do that with any holiday! Hopefully the roads will be nice, so we can make it there in decent time!! We love you all, and wish you and yours a very happy holiday!
Love,
The Clarks
Adeline has such a sweet tooth, Halloween really messed her up! After her lunch, I give her a piece of candy. She loves suckers, this one was especially sour!
As soon as we had enough snow accumulated, we headed outside! Addie loved it when we were pushing and pulling her around! She could have done it all day
Before Adeline goes down for the night, we read her a couple of books. We are thrilled that she loves books! I just thought this was a cute picture. With Jake working full time now, he doesn't really get to spend a whole lot of one on one time with his little dude! So, this melted my heart to see him read to her!Adeline absolutely LOVES her baths! As soon as she hears the water running in the bathroom, she comes runnin'--even if it's one of us just taking a quick shower! She will throw such a fit, that we usually just let her join us! She has snuck in when Jake was taking a shower in her clothes before! What a goof!
Now that Adeline is in nursery, she gets to do all sorts of fun stuff! Lucky! A couple of Sundays ago, I got my first colored picture that she colored in nursery! I loved it so much that it is now happily displayed on our fridge door! Being a mom is grand!
Here we are at the Alerus center waiting to go trick or treating....we figure we will let Addie entertain us while we wait!
This was my first time going through the Bismarck temple and going with the youth! We only had 3 girls, so we just drove up together and had a blast! From left to right: Myself (obvisously!), Maiah, Andrea, and Ashley
One of the games we did, was the "Yucky Stuff"! We had some spaghetti noodles, and tapioca in covered dishes and the kids had to stick their hands in and try not to gag while trying to figure out what the heck is in them!!!
Here are some of our crazy girls! They are a riot!
Addie loves Heather, she is the Beehive advisor! 
We went trick or treating first at the Alerus center, where the businesses in town decorate their own little area and hand out candy and hand outs of all sorts! Adeline couldn't wait to see what goodies she got!
Adeline got a lot of cheers for dressing up as a Vikings Cheerleader! Everyone here LOVES the Vikings, too bad they're not playing very well this season!!
Dad just got off work, and we headed out! He had to go show Addie off to everyone at work!
We had our ward (church) trunk or treat on Wed. The youth were in charge of the games. I was supposed to be Pippy long stocking, but most people thought I was the "Wendy's" girl. Oh well!
Here is Addie and her little buddy from church Maggie!
Congrats to my brother Dan and his wife Katie! They welcomed Adrianna this last Thursday and is absolutely beautiful!
Is there some kind of crazy drug out there that can be administed to Adeline so she will stop growing? I want her to stay a cute chubby little baby forever! Anyone out there that can help me?!!!
Aunt Kensie and Addie posing for the camera! Addie misses her crazy aunt Kensie!
Addie loves her Oma and Opa, she is just too tired to smile! We miss them already!
Here we are watching a movie in Nampa with the Kidds. Oma, Opa, and Mike
Wow, her teeth are growing like weeds! Adeline just had her 12th tooth pop through! What a trooper! SHe is looking pretty funny with her teeth all growing everywhere! She'd be a perfect jack-o-lantern for halloween!
We have made it back to the upper mid-west! We had a blast but are always relieved to get home and relax! Jake got his diploma finally, now it has really hit him! It's cool to see that he got a special stamp on his diploma for graduating in the top 2nd in his class! I am so freakin proud of him! Adeline is also happy to be home, she has been in a great mood ever since arriving home! She has been super affectionate and cuddly (can you believe that!?) we are NOT complaining about that at all!
She is so stinkin cute, and I love being her mom! I also love being married to Jake, he is just too awesome!
Jacey (Jessica's daughter) and I just cheesin' it up at dad's clinic!
Someone has a new love.........Fourwheeling. And I mean Adeline has a new love!
Colstrip has a little spray park/ pool where Adeline and Jacey had a blast. While we were there, Jacey asked if we could pretend that Addie was her baby sister! How cute is that?!!
While Jake was out with the boys, Adeline and I went to Castle Rock lake.....it's about 5 minutes away if that
Here we are at Castle Rock
