another sign summer is coming

Hunter and I took our long, nappy heads to the hair dresser today. Hunter's hair is so thick and grows so quickly that when it's long we can't do anything with it. My hair was in the world of the eternal ponytail. Aside from the family photo shoot above, I pretty much throw it into a wet ponytail after a shower each day. Not anymore! My awesome hairdresser had strict orders to CHOP IT OFF!!!



We're ready, now where's summer again???

    You look amazing. Such a cute cut. Brendan looks older too. You are such a sassy mama. Thanks for the picture, you did that fast.

    LOVE your haircut! Funny; we just scheduled our appts. for tomorrow with a friend who cuts our hair. Bennett's hair is just like Brendan's, and right now, it's a mess.

    I'm in my brother's wedding in four weeks, and then my hair is getting chopped off, too. This is the longest it's been in years and I can't handle it. Thanks for the inspiration!

    You both have the blessing, no I mean curse, of our thick, frizzy but not quite curly enough hair. I have once again grown my hair to have the forever pony tail and it is very easy to manage day to day. That is a great haircut, and you and Brendan look GREAT.
    Love,
    Mom

    I found your blog via a comment you left at Embracing My Cup. I love your family pic and your new haircut is so cute.

    I'll be back to read more. Have a great day.

About Me

My photo
Messy and wonderful perfectly describes my life as a wife and mom of five. I'm passionate about advocating for orphans by telling their stories and encouraging adoption and orphan care. My schedule is messy and wonderful as I am charged with four sons and one daughter. We love living in our little mountain ski town. We do a little camping, a little skiing, a little hunting, and a lot of laughing and loving. Life is dirty and loud around here but we wouldn't want it any other way. Okay, maybe a little less dirty!
