Clark was singing to Clementine last night. I think he was singing, "Jesus Loves Me" when this picture was made, but the funniest song he sings is his own blended medley of "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" and "The Itsy Bitsy Spider." Somehow he thinks those are one song.


This picture is hilarious because they have the same expression. For Clark, it's his "smile," but Clementine's expression means, "Feed me and put me to bed, please."

The boys at the OTBA 4th of July Festival near our church. It's a great thing that started last year, and half of the proceeds from their silent auction benefitted Central Ohio Work Camp. Thanks! The parade ends at this festival at Orange Middle School with lots of food & entertainment as well as games and booths with all sorts of stuff going on there. It was a mini-carnival. Clark loved it! Maybe next year we'll buy tickets and actually let him ride some stuff. He's still too young to appreciate it all. He's still content just looking at some stuff. Thank goodness because it's a lot cheaper that way!

Tired boys in the afternoon. Like father, like son.

Clementine on her way to her first Westerville 4th Fireworks Show!

Wow - a picture of Adam & Mary Beth together and without kids - those are rare these days! Thanks for capturing the moment, Sam!

What a sweet picture of two really tired kids late at night on the 4th of July!

Clementine's first Indians game! She made her inaugural Cleveland trip on June 16 and got to see the Atlanta Braves reign victorious over the Tribe much to her mother's delight. It was a really boring game, though. She did great - slept the whole way there, the whole way back, and still slept through the night! The weather was great - perfectly mild. She was awake during most of the game and quite content. Glad she liked it, because it was the first of many days spent at the ballpark with this family!

This is actually a 6-9 month sized onesie, but it fit her pretty well. Not that she's that big - it just must be really small. Thanks to the Thompson family for her Indians gear - Adam doesn't want to talk to Toby about the recent difficulty the Indians have experienced vs. the Tigers.

Dad & Clementine chillin' in Johnson Hall at Lipscomb. Life with a newborn for a week in a dorm room - quite the experience.

AC had a castle float in the Orange Township 4th of July parade to advertise our VBS coming up in August. Clark stood in this window the entire parade. (Sorry the pics are out of order - that's how they uploaded and it was easier to keep them this way!)
