Whirlwind Weekend

I am shocked from the swiftness of this weekend and the happy surprise that came along with it. Saturday we took my nephew Jack to his soccer game and while we were there we received the exciting and scary news that my new nephew had arrived 6.5 weeks early. All is well. Mom and baby are doing good. Here's a photo of the sweet little guy.

 

Joseph Clark Jr. 5.12 lbs 18 1/4" long

We didn't get to see him until Sunday as we had a work event that night. That night we attended the Central Institute for Deaf Auction held at the Four Seasons Downtown. It was a beautiful event. My favorite part, other than teasing Mike about making bids on expensive items, was when the students paraded into the ballroom and got on stage to sing "By the Sea". I love listening to them and seeing their overly animated gestures. Such cuties! Here's a photo from the event (overlooking downtown St. Louis and the river)

Also, Mike was very excited that Butler University beat VCU in the Final Four. On to the National Championship!

Go Bulldogs!
