Our Pot of Gold at the end of the Rainbow

HAIR Today.....GONE today!

The EVIDENCE!

The REMORSE! (She was oh so sad!)

The DAMAGE! (Above the ear? Seriously?!?)

So SERIOUS during the HAIRCUT!
(I don't think she ever even flinched!)

The END RESULT!
Well, I am going to do this post because I think it was more tramatic for me than it was for Dave. I'll be honest enough to even add that I shed a few tears. Dave just told me as we were leaving to the salon that if I needed to, I could go get her ears pierced to make her look more like a girl! I must say that it did end up better than I expected! At first, she told me Addie would probably look alot like a boy with a really bad haircut. Then after she started looking closer, she decided that if we did a "comb over" from the other side and always parted it there, it would be ok to keep it shoulder length! THANK YOU! I really do like the cut-I'm just sad that all her naturally curly golden curls are no more! Oh well! It could have been much worse! And she did pick free haircut day at Posh Place-that's my girl!

11 years and counting!!!!

We celebrated our 11th anniversary this last week. (I know-- we're old) It was so fun! We got a great deal on a nice hotel in Chandler and went and spent two nights and just relaxed. We were able to go and do sealings, which we try to do every anniversary, and stock up on our year supply at good ol' Costco. We took a minute in the morning at the hotel and took a few of these pics. I married so well!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MATTY!!!

Our little Matty turned 8 this last month and was baptized. We are so grateful that the Lord blessed us with Matt in our family! Its hard to picture our family without our fun, imaginative, sensitive, loving, happy Matthew in it. We love you Matt!
