For all those who have wondered what happened to the Henkels, well I am not sure how it all started but gradually I just stopped doing most things on the internet (ie. facebook, my email etc. ) and as you can see the blog fell way behind and then I just felt overwhelmed at how much I had to catch up on and well I guess I took a haitus! Anywho I am going to try to relive some of the things we have done over the past months. I am just going to start at the most recent and work backwards, so do not be alarmed if you see summer pictures in a few weeks, i truly have that far to go back to! I decided I would someday like to print off my blog to have as a sort of memory book of my kids and I realized I really need to get a move on if I am going to make that work! SO here's to giving it another try! Ha ha!
My little buddies today, they were actually being nice to each other for about a whole minute! :)
Plus I felt like I needed to document Ella's hair that I cut and straightened cause she just looked so different!
Our Halloween festivities ended up being a 3 night affair. The first night we went to this thing called, "Boo at the Zoo" where businesses had boothes and handed out candy and they had a whole bunch of lights put up around the zoo with some crafts and games the kids could do. It was pretty fun but there was a lot of people there which made it a little bit of a process to do anything. The kids loved it though.
The next night we had our Halloween shoot! Ella had a blast dressing up as Belle and hopes to be able to wear her Belle costume for the rest of her life. Jack on the other hand was completely against putting on that Tigger costume until we bribed him that he would get candy...then he was appeased for awhile, no matter what he hated the hood part though! :)
As you can see he is trying to start pulling off the hood the second after I put it on him.
The little princess on cloud nine, getting to put make-up on and be all beautified!
The angry little T-i-double ga-er!
Pretty much they are always saying cheese in every picture, which makes for funny faces in pictures, why do they tell you to do that?
We then went to a carnival at the elementary school where Ella met up with her friend Etienne and couldn't help having a blast being all girly and dressed up together!
Eating away as usual.
The fun little carriage ride we got to go on, the kids LOVED it.
This was pretty much the face I got from both my kids the whole night( mom open this plllleeeeasse!)... how can one just stop at one candy?
My sister Mallorie also joined us on this blessed occasion. It was great to have her along!
Then on Saturday night we went to my sister & bro in law's ward's trunk or treat/dinner and then ventured on to go trick or treating. I didn't end up taking any pics of this but my kids thoroughly enjoyed every night of the festivities because they got to dress up (Ella's fav.) and they got candy (both their favs.) It was good times and we have a whole bucket full of candy to show for it and it has been my worst enemy ever since we brought it home! :) Happy Halloween!
