Saturday Afternoon Golf with the Clarks

The boys strategize their next hole.
Dawn appears to have lost sight of her ball.....again.

Jen looking the part of the preppy golfer.

Scott's "what the hell do you call that hit" look.
Notice the tall boy Bud Light in Jen's hand - that's how we golf! The look on their faces is in response to Eli slamming on the brakes before they hit our cart.

Scott shows us how it's done....

The Clarks have a little swordfight.

Taking on Vegas

Notice how Fred is trying to get Erik and Barb's attention to show off his winnings. You know it must be something good by the look of disbelief on Deanna's face!
See that solid line of 7's?? Yeah, big money for Fred - thus the little smirk he is wearing on his face! From $600 here to $200 there to $50 'on his way to the room'..dad is definitely one of the luckiest guys I know.
All we won were Mardi Gras beads.... The two losers of the evening. No big wins for us...then again, I think we each only gambled $10.

The Grand Canyon & Joshua Tree Forest

Yes, we did it. We did the Sky Walk and stood 4,000 feet above the canyon with nothing but clear glass beneath us! It was AMAZING!!! In a crazy, scary and surreal sort of way....
The name Joshua tree was given by a group of Latter Day Saints who crossed the Mojave Desert in the mid-19th century. The tree's unique shape reminded them of a Biblical story in which Joshua reaches his hands up to the sky to stop the sun by God's command. Bet you never knew that! :)
On the way to the Grand Canyon...all three girls on the bus in the very back seat....TROUBLE!! :-)
Don't do it dad!! Don't Jump!! It's a LONG way down!
Posing for a picture by a Joshua Tree.
A beautiful couple with a beautiful backdrop.
Goofing around with mom.
Smile, we're on what used to be the bottom of the ocean!
A view of the Grand Canyon West Rim (Guano Point). It really puts life into perspective about how small we really are. LOL
Dad taking it all in....
