Lighter


I've been wanting a change for my look for a while now. I've always wanted to go blonde but have been too scared to try. Cory has been trying to tell me to try something a little bit different with my hair and maybe just add highlights to my color. Well I got adventurous the other day and when I went and got my hair done I asked for highlights. So the lady is washing the dye out of my hair and kind of gasps... which totally freaked me out! I of course start to thing the worst case possible... My hair fell out and I'm bald now. She reassured me that my hair was still on my head but it went a little bit lighter than I wanted.
I started to breathe again and thought, "okay so a little bit lighter would be okay. No big deal." She put the towel on my hair to dry it off and spun the chair around to face the mirror so I could see what it looked like. All I saw was blonde. I was totally speechless and those of you who know me... that's hard to do. She told me that the color would be even lighter as it dried. I almost started to panic, this was one of my fears, to be blonde and look really stupid. So she continued to dry and style my hair and the more I saw it I liked it.
I was a little bit worried about what Cory and the boys would think of it though. Cory really seems to like it, Jovin and Pierce didn't really have a problem, but Mayer wouldn't come to me at first. Cory says it was because he was groggy, but I think it was the hair.
I'm still not used to being so blonde. Whenever I go by a mirror and catch a glimpse of myself I have to do a double take cause it is so different. I LOVE it though. ;)

Halloween 2008

Well it has yet again taken me a LONG time to post something... At least something with pictures.

So for Halloween Jovin wanted to be Diego from Nickelodeon's Go, Diego Go. Mayer was Darth Vader (he wouldn't wear the hat), Pierce was a cow, Cory was a Ninjaneer, and I went as Major Margaret Houlihan. (Sorry no pic's of that I didn't look that good.)

Pierce as a cow... he didn't like the costume.
