Happy November

Wow....hello and goodbye October! It seems like the months are FLYING! I know some may beg to differ, but here in the Henry household it seemed to pass quickly. Which is great because it means we only have about 8 more months left in Hawaii. Such a bitter/sweet feeling...
I hope you had a great time Trick or Treating last night! Halloween is really one of my favorite holidays. I just love seeing the little ones dressed up as some of their favorite people! My daughter, Ilah, went as a Pirate Lass (that was the name of the costume, I'm going with tween pirate) and little Brayden went as Jake, from Jake and the Neverland Pirates (one of his favorite cartoons).  They had a blast collecting candy with some of their neighborhood friends.  We didn't stay out too long which made me a little sad because my daughter, who is 10, was ready to come back home and pass out candy...which means she's growing up :(  I convinced her to go to a few more houses because we really don't get many trick or treaters in our neighborhood (suprisingly, it's a little secluded for military housing).  Of course, when we did get home and only a few had come by, she wanted to go back out, but I had already settled in and we ended up ordering pizza.  Little man had a blast! He did great in his wagon daddy pulled him in.  He was so curious and amazed at what was going on around him! I was happy to see some people passing out toddler friendly treats, so B got his little Goldfish crackers and fruit snacks and was happy.  Overall, great night!
 
I am so excited November is here! I am so ready for Thanksgiving and all the yumminess it brings.  I've already purchased our turkey (pre-cooked thank you very much) and have my menu already planned out.   Well, I believe that's all for today.  I really am going to start making the blog more of a priority :) I am very thankful for the 1 follower I have right now ;)  but I'd love for you to follow me too and if you I have a blog, I'd love to follow you back! Well, I'm off to Target....50% off Halloween...heck yes!!
