July 7th is getting close!

this is the invite I am getting ready to print up...gotta check on a few details but should be going out soon!

Lori and Mike are hosting our next Clark get together!
It should be lots of fun, food, music, laughter, pictures…well, you get the idea!

Mike and Lori are providing the pig, the rest is up to everyone else.
Drinks, side dishes and desserts will make this meal complete.
Having you and your family there will make the day complete.

No two people - no mere father and mother - as I have often said, are enough to provide emotional security for a child. He needs to feel himself one in a world of kinfolk, persons of variety in age and temperament, and yet allied to himself by an indissoluble bond which he cannot break if he could, for nature has welded him into it before he was born.

I was reminded today that things…things are not the most important, people are – family and friends. We have so much to learn from each other…so much history and future to share. We are a great family, so much love and so much laughter. We can’t take back yesterday but we can plan for tomorrow. What better way to spend a Saturday than rekindling family ties, laughing at a memory or making new ones. I know every person can’t come to every function, but let’s try to start making our extended families a priority.

We are going to try to plan these things every 3 months or so. If you want to host one at your house or have an idea…we can work out the details at Lori’s.
WHAT: Pig Pickin’
WHEN: July 7th, 2007 starting at 2 going until the pig is gone

Call Hope at (828) 334-6990 for any questions or if you CAN’T come so she can guilt you into it JUST KIDDING. We all want to see you there though.
LAST thing…if you have pictures you want to share, bring them, I am going to scan them and will share with everyone. Plus I will be snapping away while I am there too.
