This is why we call it Clark Clan CHAOS...

This story is for Ana's posterity: On our way to Utah last weekend, we stopped to use the bathroom. (FYI, for anyone that doesn't know Ana, she has a super sensitive gag/puke reflex to anything gross. I'm talking SUPER sensitive!). So we were in the bathroom and Ana noticed some poop in one of the toilets... she immediately puked all over the floor and herself. So as I'm trying to clean it all up, I send her over the the sink to wash her hands so that she won't smell the puke. I finally get it cleaned up, go over to the sink, and there's more puke on the floor in front of the sink! She apparently had turned around and looked at me cleaning up the first puke, and she puked again. So after cleaning that up too, we get out of the bathroom and back to the car, where I find that Hayden has peed his pants waiting for us to get back. So I take his pants off and put them on the floor of the car while I help him get his PJ's on. In the meantime, Ana is trying to put a Pull-up on in the seat next to him, she sees the pee pants, smells the pee, and immediately pukes again into the Pull-up that she is trying to put on. NO JOKE! Puke number 3! I was able to yank her out of the car before anything else happened, and thank goodness none of it ended up in the car or we may have had more puking further down the road. This was by far the worst puke incident in the history of our little family. Hope you all got a good laugh. Lesson learned: Never take Ana into a public restroom ever again!

Tricks or Treats...

Halloween festivities would be nothing without the real deal...Trick-or-Treating!
We had one sweet baby lion cub...

A sparkling fairy...

And a super ferocious piranha...

The costumes all turned out great, but I don't think any kid enjoyed their costume more than Hayden - he LOVED pretending he was a piranha...



Despite the snow, the weather was pretty darn good. It was a successful Hallow's Eve. Here are a few more of the evening's highlights...
