Clark Kids Night #12

I remember going to Vince's when we were little kids . They had the same bread sticks and butter back then. I remember fighting over the candle so I could melt the butter on my bread stick. I remember being so mad when someones butter dripped off their bread stick and put the flame out. It was ALWAYS Beau! So many memories at this restaurant.

Clark Kids Night #11

We planned our night out and then realized..last minute...that Ian wasn't going to be able to join until about 9:00PM . We decided to go ahead and go out to eat, catch a movie, then meet up with him later. We started out night at Applebee's.We had an awesome server but Beau said he was only going to leave her a $1.00 tip. He apparently thought it was pretty funny...Romi convinced him to leave more but she wanted him to show her he wasn't only leaving a lousy buck. So he left two lousy bucks.

Seeeee? We had a total fiasco at the theater. About half an hour into the movie the sound completely goes off. The movie is running but we can't hear anything. I get up to go tell someone and 15 minutes later we decide to leave. They can't rewind it and we have already missed a ton of the movie. Long, long, long story short...after speaking with multiple rude managers and employee's we finally get our $10 back and a coupon for another movie.

Stupid Regal. I'm sticking with Century from now on.

The good thing was we were able to meet up with Ian...back at Applebee's for dessert. (Don't worry we went to a different one.)

Hey Romi and Beau? How is your dessert?I thought Ian and I actually looked like we may be related in this picture. Romi and Beau let me know I was wrong. What do you think?

I could never explain to you how happy I am to have these guys in my life. They are

THE BEST...EVER!!

Love you!

Clark Kids Night #10

Time again for our night out (minus one important person...come home Rocky).

Beau picked Applebee's. I LOVE Applebee's. The service is usually horrible but last night it was good. We were pleased.We had a little over an hour before our movie started so we walked around Target and shopped for Valentine cards and cases, upon cases, of baby wipes.

We had so much time to burn that we went through the entire movie section and reviewed all of the movie that we had seen.

Romi and I got in trouble (from Beau) for not seeing every single Will Ferrell movie. Sorry I missed Semi-Pro... I didn't know anyone saw that movie.

and Ian got made fun of (by Beau) for seeing

Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood

(and almost tearing up).

After Target Ian got Miss Fields cookies for the movies and Romi got ice cream. Beau and I had a 5 calorie piece of gum..whoo hoo. I told Romi they weren't going to let her in the theater with her ice cream cone. She said, "watch me". And that is exactly what I did. I watched her walk right in with her cone...whatever. Right before we entered the movie theater there was a couple of guys in front of us entering the same movie. One of them belched really loud and Beau said, "Way to go guy" as he himself (Beau) started entering the women's bathroom (he was only a step away). I wasn't going to tell him that he was going into the wrong bathroom but Romi felt he might get hit so she let him know that he was going in the wrong door. All Ian said was,

"Way to go guy".

Hilarious!! We were laughing so hard!

We had so much fun. Thank you for a great night!

Clark Kids Night #9

With Rocky in town we decided to have another sibling night. We made our way to Acme Bowl in Tukwila. We had to wait 30 minutes for a lane to open up so we played a few games in the arcade while we waited.

Romi and Ian played air hockey...Rocky and Beau played basketball and Rocky tried the Wheel of Fortune... (for the life of me I can't remember what this game is called...help me out.)

Nice form Romi.

Ian and I played Guitar Hero.

I really thought I was going to win but I didn't he totally beat me. I don't ROCK as much as I thought.We had so much fun and were almost sad when our lane was ready.

Beau got the first strike of the evening.

Way to go Romi.

Ian looking pleased with himself and me looking...well...not so pleased...

We played 5 games total and we split up in teams each time. The first game the girls won and the second game Romi and Ian beat me, Rocky and Beau.

Rocky and Beau were getting serious...

Romi, Beau and Rocky won the third game.

Afer a while we started getting tired and I think we lost track.Our last game we each tried for our own individual best score. I started the first game of the night with a score of 122 (I beat everybody) but I got worse and worse as the night progressed. My last game was awful (I don't even know what happened). Romi and Ian were competing for all around high scorer. You can tell from the picture below who won...

Romi was #1 We tried to get a picture with all 5 of us. First we cut off Beau's head...then we cut off my face... Finally we broke down and asked someone to take our picture.

I love these beautiful people.

I feel so lucky to have such remarkable brothers and sisters. I know them better now then I ever did and I can't begin to tell you how wonderful they are. We are all so different but somehow the same. I can't explain it.

Thank you mom and dad for giving me my best friends.

Clark Kids (Poker) Night #8

This was our first "official" Clark Kids night with ALL of our brothers and sisters. We were so excited to finally have Rocky with us.We had to teach her the basics of poker but she caught on quick and

(don't even ask)

won her first hand. As you can see...she was thrilled to win so many chips.

Rocky is hilarious and so much fun. She definitely made our night. We wish she was with us every time we got together. It makes me so sad that she lives so far away. Move back Rocky!!

First to leave the table was, Beau, in 5th place...We found him like this in the living room.

He was in my Snuggie and watching UFC.

I don't think he minded.

Next out was Rocky...in 4th place.

She wasn't to happy about it.

Then it was Ian...in 3rd place.It came down to me and Romi. By then we were getting tired.

In the end, Romi came in 2nd.And I came in first. (Thank yo u very much)We always have such a great time. However, this time was awesome. It meant so much to us to have Rocky there. She is the oldest and without her it just isn't the same.

She truly does "complete us".

I love you guys.
