Dare to be Different

I don't know what possessed me, but I decided to wear my pioneer dress to church today. I know that next week it will be destroyed on the trek; so I thought I'd at least wear it one time while it still looks nice. Of course, I forgot that we were singing in Sacrament Meeting. So...I had to walk to the front in this get-up. After the meeting, when I was approached by numerous members (all with smiles on their faces), I quickly told them I was "going Mennonite." We had a trek meeting after church today and someone mentioned that we were walking 5-7 miles a day. Hey...I was told it was 5 miles total!! One saving thought...there is supposed to be portapotties stationed at each campsite. I can only pray!!

My first blog

I'm not sure how this blog thing works, but here goes. Looks as good a place as any to record the comings and goings of our family. So what's up with the Clements Crew....today, Saturday is pretty much a kick-back day. That's not happened in while. We're all adjusting to the new kitties in the family. Daniel found these two wild kitties at NC State. We've had them since they were 5 weeks old. It's been so fun to watch their growth. They've gone from hissy, shy babies to sweet little maniacs. There's nothing they won't get into. My first job of the day was to clean poo-poo paws. Someone decided to dig a little too much in the litter box. I know....too much information! The girls are named Belle and Lucy. Belle is the smaller of the two, but the leader! The bigger one, Lucy, is a little slow to warm up to people, but she does love to cuddle.

Today I plan on finishing two skirts for the pioneer trek next week. Not sure I can go yet, but I'm hopeful. Hang in there with me on this blog thing...it will be more interesting as time goes on and I figure out out to make the site more exciting!
