Clarks in the news!

Gavin's had his first taste of fame at the tender age of four! :) A couple of weeks ago on the day we went to his school to meet his teacher, a photographer was there taking several pictures of Gavin as he looked around his classroom. A couple of days later, a friend called to let us know that she had seen Gavin in the newspaper! (As a funny side story, I think I just assumed that the photographer was with the school and that they must take pictures of all the new students. I gave him Gavin's name and age, but on the way home, Greg asked who the man was taking pictures and suddenly I was embarrassed to say that I didn't know! I was kind of glad to hear that Gavin's picture was in the paper so I knew forsure who the man taking pictures of my son was!)

PLEASE excuse the awful grammar (and spelling, clearly the Grande Prairie Herald-Tribune can't afford luxuries like perhaps a spell checker??). Oh, and on a photographic note, I really think a newspaper photographer should either set the white balance correctly for the flourescent lights, or adjust it before printing - it's all lime green instead of white!

It was pretty neat to see Gavin in the paper, and we're definitely keeping the clipping for his scrapbook!

How cool is that. After 35 years in the newspaper business, I finally get our grandson in the newspaper. You would think a big outfit like Quebecor, one of the largest publishers in North America could get the color right? Gavin looks so grownup in the picture...and sooo cute.
