Thank You Notes: CUBS + Halloween

I love Fridays, I love thank you notes, and I love Jimmy Fallon’s Thank You Notes, so, naturally, Friday here on my blog means:

THANK YOU NOTES + JIMMY FALLON

😀 OH JIMMY!

Thank You Notes

I was running a little behind this week, so I hope you don’t mind if I write a few thank you notes…

Thank you, Erika! Did you see the amazing fall box Erika sent me? I think you’ll understand why I’m so thankful for my box.

Thank you, Halloween!!

As much as I love Halloween, this year I dropped the ball. I was putting together costumes the weekend/day of Halloween.

This was me a few hours ago with my do-I-really-only-have-two-days-to-throw-together-costumes-face. ????? Let’s just say we had an interesting fantastic voyage to pull together a few things + candy. Anyone else out there as last minute as me?!?

We carved our pumpkins later than usually. But thankfully we got it done.

We had minimal Halloween decor outside, but it was Halloween headquarters inside. I already took it down for other celebrations. 🙂

I played dress up in between putting together my son’s costume.

I’m not sure if anyone (besides @lesdogggg) was as sad as us to see the 2016 Olympics come to an end. We were excited to see our girl @alyraisman receive the medals she deserves?. And who doesn’t love watching the Raisman’s reactions? I ?them! #slayallday #USA ??? #Momswithcameras

Did I mention, I love Halloween? 🙂

Thank you, weather, for raining on our trick-or-treat parade. We got about 8 houses down and BOOM the rain came down and it came down hard. My poor boy, his face paint and green hairspray started to run down his little face. He wasn’t too happy about it. I told him one day he would laugh about it and it’ll be a fun Halloween memory. Thankfully, the rain didn’t stop him from hitting up a few houses on our way back home. 🙂

My little Beast Boy. <3

Here comes some side eye…

Thank you, old man, for crushing our we did it party! Did you ever go to the good neighborhood to trick-or-treat when you were younger? I did, and then I ended up living in that neighborhood. 🙂 Anyways, when my husband and I saw a car filled with kids stop off in our neighborhood to trick-or-treat we were so proud. We gave each other high fives because WE DID IT. We’re in the good neighborhood. Then three houses down we had our proud bubble popped. An older gentleman asked us where we were from. Maybe he thought we drove up to his good neighborhood with the good candy, but I was shocked that he wanted to know what street we lived on. WTH!! Serious?

Thank you, flex day, for being a productive day for us. My husband got off early, so we took time to vote, birthday shop, and enjoy lunch together. 🙂

Cheers to fulfilling our civic responsibility, a green cup filled with chestnut praline latte ?, and a day date. ?❤️? ——————————————— Now we wait. ??? Have you voted yet? I won’t get on my soapbox. ::: ?reluctantly puts box away::: Happy Friday! ???
