Two Little Hensons

For He is good…His love endures forever!  I am SO incredibly thankful for my wonderful husband, our beautiful children, our awesome parents, our lovely sisters and two brother-in-laws, our grandparents, many aunts, uncles, and cousins, and our fantastic friends.  I thank my God every time I remember you.  I know I can’t imagine the amount of love God has for us, but I get a glimpse of it every day.  Aren’t they perfect?

Our Sunday School class has a monthly get together.  In September we played ultimate frisbee (well, Devin played and the kids and I watched).  In October we had a Halloween party at the Harman’s (we unfortunately couldn’t make it).  Tonight we had our November social…Minute to Win It.  Elizabeth and Catherine did a great job planning.  We had to throw water bottles and make them land standing, put an Oreo on our foreheads and make it get in our mouths without using our hands, stack 3 full cans of Sprite and 3 empty cans of Sprite in separate hands, then switch hands without putting them down (this was all going ok until someone…who will remain nameless…dropped a can of Sprite.  We had a HUGE mess!  It was actually REALLY funny to see everyone run! 🙂 ) The other two games were tossing pencils into the air from the back of your hand and catching them and stacking 5 apples on top of each other and making them stand for 3 seconds.  We had 60 seconds to complete each task.  Here are some pictures from the night. 🙂

I know…I know…I’ve got a lot of catching up to do but we’ll start with this:  Our babies are 20 months old.  I mean really?  Twenty Months?  They are growing up so quickly!  They are talking more and becoming more independent.  They are learning their colors…pink, blue, green(geen), and yellow(wellow), learning to count (one, two, three, go!), and so much more.  I love looking at their beautiful blue eyes and soft blonde hair every day.  Our days are so busy, so sometimes I just want to sit and look at them.  They give the best big hugs and kisses.  I can’t wait to see what the next 20 months have in store.  🙂

We’ve had several Halloween festivities the past week.  We went to Boo at the Zoo with the Broadwells and Whittingtons last Sunday(side note…it is REALLY busy on the weekends), we went to a special Halloween storytime at the library last Wednesday, we went to Bryson’s 2nd birthday party Saturday, then we trick-or-treated around our neighborhood yesterday.  Our little Dora and Diego were amazingly adorable.  They can’t say “trick-or-treat” but they would walk up with their pumpkins and say “please.”  🙂

Bryson’s birthday (a little info…Bryson’s and Recie’s moms are both NICU nurses with Mrs. Elizabeth.  We met them when AC and Charlie were in the hospital.  Our kiddos are about 4-6 months apart.)

Hugging her friend Recie. The little ones dressed up.  Recie was a cow and AC was Dora.

Here’s my little Diego playing with this toy on the refrigerator with Mr. Josh.  I think they played with it for 15 minutes or more!The birthday boy and his guests…Dora, Deigo, cow, kitty, and well…he was going to be Elmo but changed his mind. 🙂 They had so much fun playing with the balloons and Bryson’s new toys!!

Just for fun…here is a picture of our little pumpkins last year.  Amazing how quickly they grow…isn’t it?
