It's a bit different since they are both boys, but I love the idea of a theme. I tried it out with pirates this year and it was SO MUCH FUN! Thanks for visiting, Becky!

So cute to see all the kids' costumes! I especially miss when my older two were very young and close in age so I used to dress them up in all kinds of fun "pair" costumes---Miss Tuffet and the Spider, Robin Hood & Maid Marian, I had such a blast putting their costumes together! :D Little Miss Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09350490261395026094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3244224993534617084.post-46916380111949586052016-11-01T08:28:15.112-04:002016-11-01T08:28:15.112-04:00I think the teens would definitely appreciate it m...I think the teens would definitely appreciate it more. If you do change your mind and read it, let me know your thoughts! I think you'll really enjoy This Adventure Ends, especially since you liked First & Then! I look forward to your thoughts. Your library always has the best activities! I hope you have a great November as well. Thanks for visiting, Christina!

It's frustrating, because I think the topic of immigration is a fantastic one for a novel. If you read it, please let me know what you think! Thanks for visiting, Joy!

Maybe the teens at the library will appreciate it more. <br /><br />I hope to read The Tea Planter's Wife this month and I will definitely be picking up This Adventure Ends. I'm glad you loved it. <br /><br />We had a Halloween Boo Bash at the library yesterday and I was amazed to see some new people, especially teens and tweens that I don't normally see at the library as well as little kids. They really seemed to enjoy trick or treating and the other activities going on. I hope your son enjoyed his Halloween. We had some little pirates at the library too :) Have a great November!Christina Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756342293865115352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3244224993534617084.post-67440882535276637392016-10-31T22:13:37.979-04:002016-10-31T22:13:37.979-04:00I've had issues with Melissa dela Cruz's w...I've had issues with Melissa dela Cruz's writing as well, so her books aren't really the ones I'm chomping at the bits to read. Though, I'm really curious about her latest considering the story is about a Filipino immigrant. <br /><br />You still had a great month, Christina! I wish you all the best in November. :)Joy https://www.blogger.com/profile/08176549392514186645noreply@blogger.com
