HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANDREA

June 2 was a great day in the Life of the Clement Family. That is the day that Andrea Marie came into our life. That's her third from the left in the group shot. In the top photo, she is 12 years old and has just hiked 7 miles to Jenny Lake @ 9,100 feet. She is proudly displaying her first Brook trout of the trip. When she started to walk she moved her hips from side to side a lot and Daddy called her Boom Boom. Later different siblings called her Boom, Boomer, The Boomeriah, The Boomster, and some just call her Drea. She gets along with everyone and loves her nieces and nephews dearly. She has a very easy disposition and is usually very happy and smiling. Our girl is wicked smart and is very athletic. When our girl gets out in the sun in the summer she looks like she should "Habla Espanol", if you know what I mean. She jogs, plays tennis, racquetball, and other sports. She went tubing down the Chattahoochee River on her birthday with friends. She called it "Shooting the Hooch". She tries to let the boys win at sports, but her competitive drive just won't let her. So she beats them all handily. She has her B.S. in Psychology and lives in the great state of Georgia. Like the song says "We got Georgia on our mind". We love her and miss her very much. "Boomer come to the West coast". She's coming home this summer in August and we can't wait. We love you Boom. HAPPY BIRTHDAY DREA!!!
