Bless This Mess

Last weekend Eden got her hair cut!  She donated it to Locks-of-love.

She was so happy to be able to do it.  But her church teachers tried and tried to talk her out of it.  They even came up to me telling me not to let her cut her hair!  I agreed with them that her hair is gorgeous, but I wasn’t going to discourage her from something she wanted to do that would help others.  I was still sad to see all that beautiful blonde hair go.  I mean, just look at it!  When it was curled it was especially gorgeous!!!

We washed her hair that morning and couldn’t style it.  The hair has to be as clean as possible to donate.

Beautiful blonde!

Thankfully the stylist also fixed Eden’s bangs.

Doesn’t she look adorable!

She’s loving the short hair (I think the ‘no tangles’ thing helps a lot).  I can’t wait for her to have long hair again, but until then, we’ll have fun with it short!

Well, here it is, Thursday and I’m just getting around to Monday.

Yesterday I did a guest post on Christie’s blog.  You can find it here.

She’s doing a great week long theme of photography!

And here are some pics of the girls!

Have a great weekend!

Finally!!!  I’m posting Monday Moments on Monday!

Happy Halloween everyone!

Ashley is a Dead Bride.

Amanda is Ariel.

Eden is Sleeping Beauty.

Here are some Halloween skirts I made for the girls.  They’ve gotten so many compliments on these skirts.

I took pictures as I made the skirts so I could do a tutorial on them… is that something you guys want to see?  They’re super easy to make and all it takes to figure it out is a bit of math.  Let me know if you want to see it!

Last week Amanda got Principal’s Pride for the month of October.  She got it for showing Integrity!

She got lots of free food coupons and a certificate.  But the coolest thing she got was a metal eagle pin.

Here she is with her principal!

Have a wonderful and safe Halloween and a great week!
