Happy Holidays

Here's a sneak peak of the mullet for those of you requesting pictures. I'm learning how to tame it, and it's looking a little better then it did in the beginning. Anyway, hope you enjoy the picture, and we hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!

Not a fan of the layers

Yesterday I swallowed my pride, and for the first time since moving to Louisiana I decided to get my hair done out here. It's always risky for a girl to try a new stylist and this time was no exception. I made my appointment and when I arrived, the first sign of danger was that girl doing my hair had to take 5 for a smoke...ewww!! Anyway, I told her that I'd like a dark chocolate brown color for the, and that I wanted to keep the length and add a few bangs...pretty simple right? Well the color turned out really cute, but somewhere along the line the stylist suggested adding a few long layers to my cut. It sounded harmless so I agreed, but those long layers turned out to be code for really short mullet-like accents around the face. I tried to hold back the tears in the salon but they just came out flowing. When she asked me if I was ok I told her "oh yes, I'm just crying because I haven't seen anyone work the scissors like that in a long time...impressive". Alright, to be honest I didn't really cry, but that's only because I didn't get to make a good enough assessment of the cut until I got home. On a positive note, I suppose my new look is better then the mop I was sporting before. I doubt even a rabid squirrel on the loose up there could have made it look worse then it was. I sure hope these layers grow out fast because I'm not sure how long I can handle this business up front, party in the back look. Yikes!! I'll post pictures soon so you can all laugh at me.

Snow on the Bayou!!!

If you thought the world was rocked during the anthrax scare in 2001 check this out....I wake up this morning and it's SNOWING outside...WTH!! This just doesn't happen in Louisiana. The funniest part about it is that several of the local schools are closed today due to the weather. I think these cats need to come to Utah if they think this is bad. I must say though that this is a bit of a Christmas miracle for me, because I've been wishing and hoping for snow, the only thing is I was wishing and hoping for it when we got to Utah. In my wildest dreams I never imagined it would happen here. Poor Jer bear has to work in this nonsense, and it's his birthday too...sorry sugar! Next time I'll be careful what I wish for.
