Hair Cutting Party..

Samuel 16:7

Man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart..


Friday,Oct 29th..

It was time to cut my hair,,so we decided a party would be the only way to go. That day was also the same day we found out the place on my face that we thought was a staph. infection, turned out to be shingles. It looked like I had the crap beat out of me, but I wasn't contagious, the girls both had the pox vaccine, so we were good the party was on...:)





I thought Regan would have a hard time with it because she loved to rub my hair on her face and play with it, but turns it hasn't bothered her bit.:)





















Kristin had the hard job of cutting it off.. I only cried a little bit, then kicked myself in the ass and got on with it..:)











Reese enjoyed helping ,, it really hasn't effected her either.. God is so good to take care of things like this..


















Of course Regan got hungry in the middle of it all.. and even with 15 people there,, only momma would do..:)










There it is... hopefully some nice kid will enjoy being a redhead. ( Locks of Love)






LET THE HEAD RUBS BEGIN!!!









( Kristin Ehmen, Me, Laureen Bagett, Liz Vos)




We had a YUMMY cake!!




( Kristin,Me,Julie)


Me and My wonderful hubby,,who was right beside me the whole time,, reminding me how beautiful I was,and that it would grow back in time..


(Me & Ju-Ju)

It was a good night..a night filled with wonderful friends, who have helped us so much through all of this,, I can't imagine doing this alone..
And now after it has been all said and done..the no hair thing is not a big deal at all....it's honestly kinda nice.. I can get ready from shower to make-up in 20 min... then decide what to put on.. hat? wig?? scarf?? DONE!! Easy!!
I think if it were more socially acceptable more people would..:)
Thank you to everyone who was there,, you know I LOVE YA!!

Congratulations on taking control.

One day very soon this will all be a distant, unbelievable memory and the new, older, even stronger you will look back in disbelief and with pride.

Sending healing, happy vibes,
