Emma's hair is her pride and joy. She loves having long hair and is pretty particular about how it looks. But even she was on board with the fact that we needed to do something to it. So today we went to visit my hairdresser, Toni, and she got about 4 to 5 inches taken off.

At first I didn't think it looked like we had cut off that much, but when we came home and looked at her before pictures we could really tell it was a much needed change.

Her only requirement was that it was going to stay long enough to put in a ponytail--which it is. She loves it and her daddy is happy that he doesn't have quite as much hair to comb every night after bath!

Halloween

I need a weekend of rest from our crazy weekend!

Friday day we had parties at school, Friday evening I had book club, Saturday we had a soccer game, birthday party, and football watching with neighbors; then Sunday we had a full day of Halloween festivities! I need a nap just remembering how busy it was.

Here are a few highlights from the past few days.....

We painted our pumpkins.

These are the treats that I made for the class party.

Tyler's kindergarten class.

She was so beautiful. The highlight for her was wearing lipstick.

Tyler LOVED his face paint.

The neighborhood kiddos--notice the only other girl is a small baby and she doesn't even live in our same neighborhood. I have a feeling Emma will never lack in the date department!

Tyler and his BFF Drew.

Even the moms dressed up-- I was supposed to be Esmeralda from "The Hunchback of Notre Dame"
