Clark and I are now both Utah State Alumni! Clark technically graduated in December 2011 but walked in May 2012. He received a dual major in Entrepreneurship and Economics, so he has two diplomas which makes him extra smart! It took me all these years to finally know how to spell Entrepreneurship correctly. Helping Clark type all of his papers and helping with projects I have the spelling down. I could spell it in my sleep. He really worked so hard these last few years and towards the end I think he really started to love his major! They did all sorts of cool projects during his last year with new innovations and you could tell that was right up his alley. Now if only he could get a job actually doing what he loves. I'm glad to say he does have a job now (thank goodness, I won't have to write anymore depressing blog posts!). He is working for Morgan Pavement in Clearfield. The owner Todd Morgan is good friends with the Pierson's so he said he would give Clark a job if he wanted one. They wanted to be able to give him an office job, but there weren't any openings yet so Clark is working on the patch crew and if anything inside opens up, they will move him. It's nice because he can learn about all the different areas of paving and if he does move to an office job he will know all about the company. He works LONG hours and his in the heat all day and his skin is now the color brown (he is starting to look like the "tanning mom" ha ha), but he seems to like it so far. The other day they worked from 3am-4pm and yesterday he worked from 5am-7pm. I could never work those long hours. He already has 40 hours this week. But overtime will be nice! Henry and I have moved down to Kaysville so that we can see our husband/dad more than just on the weekends. Clark started working a couple weeks ago and we stayed in Logan and Clark stayed down in Kaysville at his parents during the week. It was no fun driving down to stay with him for a few days and then driving back up to Logan. So we are now staying in Kaysville with his Parents until we can get a house. It will be nice for us to save up some money for a couple months. But it will be even better when we actually have a place of our own. From living at Cambridge Court being on site managers, to living with my Grandma, and now living with his parents, we haven't had our own place for a long time. We are very appreciative of those family members that have let us live with them though, it has helped us greatly! It will just be nice to have our own home. We will miss Logan since that is where we first started dating and that has been our home for the past 5 years. We will still visit since I have my family up there.
Now for the part that everyone wants.... photos

We had an after party at my Grandma's house. Clark's sisters bought him a pinata because it was Cinco De Mayo. The little kids all had a few turns hitting it and then it was Clark's turn. He destroyed it in one hit.

We live in Clearfield and there are a couple houses in our neighborhood for sale. Let me know if you want to check them out! There are lots of young families and lots of little kids!
I had to laugh at Jack in the photo of Clark hitting the pinata, just from the little story you told me about him! Congratulations to Clark!
