Birthday party for Savanna

So we had an early birthday party for Savanna on Saturday with some family and a few friends. It was fun though Savanna was not in the best of spirits. She seemed to be not feeling well this weekend but appears better now. She wouldn't eat very much Saturday night and had a bit of a fever. We don't know if she caught a little bug or if those symptoms are just from teething. Anyway, as you can see from the pictures she looks very grumpy! It was sad too because she wouldn't eat any of her cake as we all stood watching her and she usually will eat anything! Oh well! You can't always predict babies' moods! Here are some pictures of the festivities.

Bethany said...: I have learned that when I have a certain expectation around a baby or child doing something, I am usually disappointed. :) That being said, it looks likes it was a great party, and Savanna knows you love her!

Thanks for sharing the pictures, it's great to get a glimpse of Provo again.; December 17, 2008 at 11:19 AM

How We Met

We met when both of us lived in the same apartment complex and were attending the same singles ward. We became acquainted as friends when one of Ashley's roomates was interested in one of TC's roommates and always wanted to hang out at their apartment. Ashley came along for moral support. Ashley has to admit that her initial impression of TC was not the greatest. She was wondering why he was trying to act like such a "tough guy" by shaving his head and going by TC. One day she asked him why he didn't grow his hair out to which he replied that he could not and she also learned that he goes by TC to distinguish himself from his father who is named Thomas Clark and his grandfather who is Thomas Clarence. TC relates that when he first met Ashley he thought she was cute and was contemplating asking her out or another girl in the ward. He did think Ashley was slightly immature because she was engaging in often frivolous activities such as throwing water balloons out her apartment window at people walking by and wrestling with guys in the apartment lounge. (She has grown up since then, TC says!) TC decided to give it a go and ask Ashley out after he came home from a trip visiting his sister, April, in Arizona. His roommates related that Ashley had expressed an interest in him. (Actually Ashley's roommate was trying to hook her up with TC and told his roommates Ashley wanted to go out with him. Ashley did not entirely object.) So TC called Ashley and asked her to go with a group to Pirates of the Caribbean. Their first official single date was to Wendy's (Way to go, TC, lol) TC and Ashley dated exclusively for about a year before becoming engaged in December of 2004 and were then married on April 23rd, 2005 and it has been bliss ever since!
