Motorcycle

One last present. We could not fit this in the car when we went to Utah so we had to give it to him when we got home. He was so excited he just kept saying Bike and making the sound(he is making that noise in the picture above). I kept asking if he wanted to get off and I got I think 30 No's and Nope's. I'm glad he likes it.



I'm trying to upload this video. I will try again later!


Package

We got home that evening and there was a large package for Rorke. Rorke's cousin Bryson lives in Arizona and he sent Rorke his gift. Rorke was having so much fun with the Tonka trucks he just wanted them out of the box. Thanks Bryson!

Dinner

Our last night was dinner with the Clark side. Well some of us. My Grandma and Grandpa Drummond and then Mike and Diane and their families. We had a great time visiting at Robintino's in Bountiful. We did a lot of talking and eating. Rorke and Peyton were hamming it up. Eating up almost all the bread and ranch. They were playing across the table from each other. They were playing catch with Rorke's bottle. Rorke now says Peyton and Elena oh and Tanner. I guess i should say that he says..."Peyta, Anena, and Nanna. It was nice to see Adam who I haven't seen in about 8 years. Wow how time passes. It was fabulous to see everyone. Then the next day we left for home. On the way home Rorke said Where did Elena go? It was so cute he kept saying it so we called Elena on the way home.

Games

We spent a lot of time playing of course hand and foot. Rorke had to play occasionally.


His favorite game however is the Wii. He would have the controller on his wrist and would do the bowling actions. It was adorable.


Monday we got to go to the Clearfield Aquatic Center. Rorke loved it so much. It is really an awesome place. Rorke went to down two different slides. Once with my Mom and the other times was on the kiddie slide. He was loving the sprinkler shooting things. I wish I could up load the video but it wont let me. rorke would try and drink the water like the drinking fountain and then he would step on the spout and wonder where the water went. It was so funny!


Day after



Oops. I messed up the picture order.
So the next day it snowed a lot and Rorke got to help Tanner and Gunnar shovel the drive way. He was so happy he got to go outside and he loved shoveling. Even if it was just a dustpan. What a cutie~ Then we went to visit Grandma & Grandpa Drummond. We had a nice visit and it was good to see them. Then it was off to Grandma Zweifel's. It was really fun. We got to play pool and visit for awhile. But Rorke's favorite part...



of course was pushing and riding on Grandma's walker. He was having so much fun. My dad would run him up and down the hall ways and Rorke would make car noises. It was so cute.
Rorke even got his time playing pool!

Christmas

Christmas was fabulous. Lots of presents. Here is what Santa brought for Rorke.
He was very content opening the one present and just having that one. I think he was annoyed I would take something away and give him a new one. He would set it back down and pick up what he already had. I guess I should have saved a lot of money and just got the one book. haha

Thanks Xander for the cute train bath toys and the car write on toy.


Thanks Grandma & Grandpa for the cute Elephant. Rorke loves it so much and he gives it kisses. Thanks for the book and the tool set! Love you guys!

Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was really fun. Adrian and I took a nice long run from her house to walmart. We started in Clearfield, ran to West Point and then to Clinton (to walmart) then we turned around and went back. It was a long run a 10k. My very first one and I was so proud of us. It was hard but such an accomplishment for me. We were really happy that we did it and that it was over. Then we went to lunch with most of the family to Ligori's. That was really fun and good food once again. I should mention that all the food at my Mom's was really good too. We ate really well the whole weekend! We then went to my Mom's house and opened our present from the siblings then from my parents. My parents gave us a awesome picture of the temple. I will take a picture and post it later. We love it so much and are grateful for such awesome parents. Then the parents opened the gift from the kids and we got to open our ornaments. The were awesome too. Then off to bed because Santa came that night!

We did a picture for my Mom and Dad for Christmas with all the grandkids. The kids did an amazing job. It was all in black and white and for some reason it is half color on here but I have no idea why. The kids are super cute. If you can't tell it spells CLARK.





Rorke is always trying to be on the phone. He will take anyones that he can find. It is so cute because he will walk around saying really loud...Hello, Hi. then a bunch of random gibberish. But it is so cute. He will say Hello, Hi so many times I love it.

Bowling

Thursday was off to the bowling alley fat cats in Ogden. I had never been there. It is quite a place with good pizza and ice cream cookie sundaes oh and I can't forget the breadsticks yum, also there are arcades and games.
The kids of course wanted to ride on the rides and Rorke did not want to get off. I think he rode 6 times.





So much fun. I hope we get to do it again!

The next morning we were off to Utah. The roads were awful but we got there and were safe. We saw 9 cars off the side of the road that were in accidents, 2 were roll overs. I felt really bad for them. We had a ton of fun in Utah as you will see. Monday night I spent with Rachel we went to our usual El Matador. She is looking very pregnant now. I have not seen her since July and she was not far along then. She has about 2 weeks left now. It was fun to see her and I hope all goes well with the birth of her baby girl. Tuesday it was off to dinner with Ryan, Jessie and Byron. We have a yearly Christmas dinner and it is always fun and humorous. The waiter was a little odd but we made it fun. I miss you guys! That is all of us above. Adrian and I were able to run together (for the first time ever I think) almost every other day. It was fun running with her even though she is in better shape and can run faster than me.

Start of Christmas Vacation



The start of our Christmas Vacation was a stop at the Stierle's Home. We were able to spend the night with them. We had some good food at the famous "Poncho's". I finally got to eat there. Then we had some laughs (at Grandma Stierle's expense mostly). Sorry you fell. I hope you are feeling better. Then we got to open some presents. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa I know Rorke liked his book, dragon and his race cars and ramp. Also thanks for the yearly ornament. After all that fun Paul, Kim, Kambree and Londyn came for a quick visit and Rorke was able to give Kambree her gift. Thanks for the visit all!

Scarfs




So we had the missionaries over for dinner and one of them had a scarf and Rorke was playing with it the whole night. When she left he was not happy that she took her scarf. So we got a couple out and Rorke was having a fabulous time. I should have taken more pictures.

Racing Day!

There is BreAnn and I running our first 5K together. It was a little cold and alot snowy but I am so glad we got to do it. It was so much fun and we have been training for it for about 15 weeks. It has been so much fun and I am so grateful to BreAnn for pushing me when I needed it. We did it in 26 min and 27 seconds which was awesome and we were really excited but then when we were all done they said it was not a true 5k because of the snow the route had to be changed so they said it was just under a 5K. Bummer. So my first 5k is just under a 5k. Oh well it was so much fun and I can't wait for the next one. Maybe this one will really be a 5k. I am so grateful for Gunnar and Rorke coming out to support us. Gunnar took the picture of us running. The great thing is that we didn't come in last. They guy that came in first ran it in 14 min. That is just crazy!
Here we are just about ready for the race!

My number!

THanksgiving/sledding

We got to go sledding with the cousins and had a blast. Rorke really loved it. I was suprised. He was so comfortable I thought he could just fall asleep. He had a fun time. I don't think he wanted to get out. It was fun being with the cousins!






Rorke had a good time (we all did) at thanksgiving. It was so nice to have all the family here this time and that we were able to spend time together. Kambree and Rorke are a fun pair and that they are so close in age is so fun!

Park






Random







Church and shoes

Here he is once again in my shoes. This kid is a shoe fanatic!

Cute and ready for church!

Giraffe

He loved seeing himself. He was laughing and kept looking at himself!




































He really liked to have his custume on. I think he thought it was a jacket and so he knew he would be going out side. He got to trick or treat at 4 houses and that was plenty.
