Clark insisted on wearing a tie for this picture. In fact, he just brought me the tie and asked to wear it right now as I'm typing. Dad did a good job on the Brutus pumpkin, don't you think? Clark liked it. 

Trick-or-treating for the first time. Changing into his clown costume was proving to be too traumatic, so we just went out in the pumpkin hoodie that he loves. 

Picking out our pumpkins at the church pumpkin patch.  

On the swings, of course. 

Monday was gorgeous, so we took advantage of what could be our last nice day for the year at the park. 

The Dellinger/Metz/Raike clan were there to see the Browns win! Pictured are Adam, Grandpa Ralph Dellinger (hence Clark's middle name), MB, Jason & Abbey Raike (Adam's sister). Adam's aunt, Vick, was also there, but she was taking the picture. 

Checking out his loot. 

Nice candy drool. With those curls, Clark had to be a clown for Halloween. 

The very scary clown family at AC's Trunk-or-Treat. 

It's more fun to play with the toys while sitting in the toy box with them apparently. This is Clark making his Dad proud with a big, "O." He does "O-H-I," but usually forgets the second "O." Clark also now thinks the alphabet goes "a-b-c-d-e-f-g-H-I-O."
