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. ;)

What decade is it??


I never thought I'd see the day when my husband would sport a 3 inch fro, and my son a 2 inch fro.

Apparently last night while I was at a youth conference fireside Jovin got a hold of my hair brush and both him and Cory brushed their hair out... nice huh?
