Making The Cut

You might remember a few days ago I posted about not liking my hair so much. I really enjoyed reading everyone’s comments and suggestions too, you all are the best! I thought about, and decided it was time to call my buddy Kat.

My hair was about shoulder length, and completely dye and product-free. I had been growing it out in hopes that I could donate it to Locks of Love. I donated my hair a few years ago, and I was really happy to be able to do it again.

So I called up my favorite shop, and they said that they could work me in during the afternoon. I was so excited, I couldn’t wait!

I had James get rid of my favorite scrunchie, and I brushed out all of my tangles one last time.

I made it to the Courtland a little early. I love to wait in the peace and quiet of the Day Spa. It is so lovely there. I met up with Kat, and she had some great ideas for a super-cool cut.

And here she is with my hair for Locks of Love.

She really does an awesome job, and I love love love my new hair-cut!

Short and Sassy (just like me)

Now if I could only make my hair look like this every day.

Thanks again Kat! You are the best.

The Pumpkin Patch

022

A week ago I took the kiddos to the Fall Festival and Pumpkin Patch. The weather was beautiful, and the pumpkin patch proceeds went to a great cause. You could buy tickets for rides, food, and pumpkins and all of the proceeds went to Relay for Life. It was a fun day with the kiddos.

Thade had already had a class field-trip to the Pumpkin Patch, so he knew all of the cool places to check out.

The Little Miss was happy and enjoying the windy weather.

0051

Thade helped Agnes find the perfect pumpkin.

Dylan found one too, but at this point he was over the pumpkins, he wanted to ride the train.

013

The train was so fun, the boys had to ride  it twice .

020

There was a petting zoo with the biggest bunny I have ever seen.

There were lots of pretty Mums for sale. Agnes wanted one so bad, I think she just wanted to eat it though.

035

The boy’s each had spiders painted on their cheeks.

It was a lovely way to spend a windy Fall day.

Crashy Crash Crash

Yesterday, I thought I killed my laptop. It crashed, and I sobbed. I tried to get it back up and running, but it was no use, it just wasn’t going to happen. I texted my hubby, and once he was off work he got  to work on my laptop. He worked on it for a good hour, and he fixed it! I’m a way happy camper now.

It is still acting up a bit, darn Vista, so I’m heading out to buy some flash drives so I can save all of the pictures, just in case. Maybe I had better start looking for another laptop, and add it to my Christmas wish list.

To The Park

Every once in a while Dylan won’t want to go home after we drop off  Thade. Last week we had one of those days, so I decided to take the little kiddos to the park to play.

The morning light was beautiful.

The park was so quiet too.

I can’t wait for Fall, I love the park in the Autumn.

059

The ducks were at another lake, so we didn’t get to see them this time.

0032

Dylan was really excited to be at the park.

Agnes was having some troubles with allergies, but she enjoyed watching Dylan climb and run around.

047

Before we knew it, it was time to head back home.

Hopefully we’ll see some cooler temps and more trips to the park.
