It's done! And I love it!

Before I went in today....(I should add I almost hesitated as my hair actually did what I wanted)
The background is dark. I will have to have Russell help me get a better picture later. It's very short and feels really nice!

I am finicky oh so finicky...

I saw a better hair cut. This is the one. Russell likes it too. I like it because it has no bangs - and I am all for that. And it gives my head the body it is lacking up on top. There will be no more choices. :)

Yesterday was a mess up at the hair place. I was told to come at 1 p.m. I showed up and they said...."Your appt was at 11 a.m."????? What? Oh well. They are squeezing me in at 11:30 today. I am excited!

And it has begun...

I was doing really well this morning. I wanted to get pics of the boys for their first day of school. When I remembered - they were on their way down the road to the bus stop. I had to yell for them to stop.

Michael got to wait for a ride to school as his teacher had a meeting with parents and we filled out paperwork. Nephi will get his picture on Monday. His first day of school.

That time of year...

Today is the last day before another school year starts. It felt weird to be making lunches again. The boys are excited about tomorrow. Our oldest is a little nervous/anxious/excited about all the changes that come with Junior High. I can't believe I am old enough to have a kid in 7th grade!

Haircuts...

I don't like the way my hair is cut. The front is cute - but the back won't cooperate. So....I am getting it re-cut on Tuesday. Since I don't have the hair to work with I had the first time around...I will go shorter. This is the haircut of choice this time.

This time I am going to the person who normally cuts my hair. Which I should have done in the first place.

I just love this picture! The beach...it's the place to be!

I think this was in 2004. It was Nephi's first trip to the beach. The boys were all so little! My have they grown.

Meet the Parents...Russell and Candace
It all started for us when Russell left for Cape Town South Africa on a mission. Candace felt inspired to write him - so she did! We wrote for 3 1/2 years. Candace came home from her mission to the Texas Houston East Mission and we dated for 5 months. We married in July 1994 and have been happy ever after!
