A goal has been accomplished and today we celebrated! Clark has now visited all 50 states! He accomplished the goal with a week long fishing trip to Alaska!
Tim had the idea that we should have a party when he came home. He told Romney and she took off with it. They planned food and decorations and a symbolic gift. Romney gave everyone food assignments and made sure it all happened! Here is a quick overview!
Romney came over while we were at church and decorated...All American style!
Clark was surprised! Here is his first view of the decorations...
Jocelyn gave him leis and hugs!
And he posed for "official" pictures....and Instagrams!
While some people finished cooking, he told fish stories to the rest of the family!
Then we had the celebration dinner...Texas Toast, Hawaiian pineapple, Florida oranges, California
strawberries, (Green River) Utah watermelon, Kentucky fried chicken, Idaho potatoes, Wisconsin
cauliflower soup and Nebraska corn on the cob! All the food was labeled with flags and there was
a lot of it! And for dessert we had a choice of Washington apple pie and Klondike ice cream bars!!
And finally, we gave him a framed map of the United States made out of pictures of license plates!
It can hang in his office and be a conversation piece of all the places he has travelled!
After dinner, Clark and Adam were comparing how many countries they have each visited...
Adam 12 and Clark 10...
That is a party for another day!!
