The parentals received official word yesterday of their second call to serve in the Mississippi Jackson Mission. Through a pretty roundabout (some would say miraculous) means, they found out about the opportunity to go back to their first mission, and tackle the responsibilities of Car Czar and Media Mama all over again. They prayed about it, and decided to go ahead, and put their papers in again. We are very proud and pleased for them, and know they will be a blessing to the folks in Mississippi, as well as to our family.
For probably the last 10 years or so, I've had pretty much the same hairstyle. For the most part, it's been long, all one length, and I would eventually put it up in a ponytail almost every day, because I couldn't stand having it in my face. It drove me crazy, but I didn't know what to do with it, and at the same time, I liked that I could basically get up and go every day without a lot of effort. For the past several months now, I've been threatening to do something different and drastic, and finally, yesterday, I did. At the recommendation of Angel, I made an appointment with her stylist. It took several weeks to get in, but finally, the day arrived. Angel went with me, for moral support, and to be the photographer. I went in with some basic ideas, but after some consultation and looking at photos with Francine, this is what I ended up with. First, the "before" shot: In process: And finally, the finished product: I can't remember the last time
