The Last of 2009

This is how Grandpa and Grandma tend when mom and dad go out on a date. I don't know what they were watching but it was good!


Nate showed us his new head of hair -- I don't think Luke is too sure of it.


Jenna Rebecca Sorensen is now living with us along with her mom and dad and brothers. It is fun to have an infant in our home again. She is a sweetheart.



New Years Eve Clint made a big pot of Low Country Boil--Potatoes, Sausage, Corn, Shrimp, and Crab boiled with special seasonings and then drained and poured out on the table. This is something he had on his mission and we were grateful he was willing to share. SUPER YUMMY

A Visit to a Ranch

Today we visited a Texas ranch that was built originally as a movie set. We saw lots of animals. The kids got to ride a horse and they sat on a longhorn steer. Grandpa and Grandma were too old and heavy to sit on the steer but we had our picture taken with him.

Grandpa and Grandma had to go to jail.

And so did the whole Clement family.

In Texas With Nate

We went to the Nature Center in Austin where the kids buried Luke
at the Dinosaur Dig.

Luke,Kaelyn, Ian and Annika built a fairy house.

Our New Little Dolly

Jenna Sorensen, born Sunday, December 20. She was a bit early but mom and baby are both doing fine. She was a nice surprise.

Christmas Came Early

Knowing how much Becca LOVES? the Twilight books, Katherine custom made some very special shirts for Becca and Clint for Christmas. Andy had a layover in Salt Lake following a business trip to Idaho so he was able to hand deliver their presents. He then had to explain the joke. I am not sure these shirts will ever be worn in public but they are awfully cute!

Clint's shirt has a picture of Jacob with the caption that reads "He's always in the way". Becca's shirt has Edward with the caption "A Girl Can Always Dream".

Becca is hoping Jenna will also be a "Twilight" fan

Caleb just wanted part of the action.

Olivia and Heather Came to Town

It was fun to get to spend a little time with Olivia and her mom. Look at those big blue eyes!
