Haircut Time


We kept Blaire's hair in a cute little bob for a long time.
It looked so cute on her and we loved it.
  


Then she got glasses at age 4.  We decided to grow
it out because it kept getting snagged on her frames.



She prefers to wear it down rather than in pony tails.
My problem with that is it is messy all the
time and she refuses to wear headbands.

I told her we had to go short again if she wanted to wear it down.
She jumped right on that and we took her in for a cut last night.


She LOVES it.  And it enhances her spunky personality.

What a week....

It has been a very interesting 7 days. Duncan and I went to a Pastors Conference last Fri/Sat.  We had a great time away - enjoying time with our Senior Pastor Terry Tharp as well as James & Liz Newman (Worship Pastor).

 

We came back home to pick up our kids from our friends' house and barely got in the door at our place before we realized that Blaire had a fever.  Thankfully it only last 24 hours, but the cough stuck around much longer.  Graeme was next... coming down with a fever on Monday night.  His cough was much deeper in his chest, but also much more productive than Blaire's.  Paige had tummy issues and a mild fever last night. 

Duncan and I have been feeling a bit run-down.  Especially today.  Paige had us up till 2am. 

We've been trying to stay healthy - especially because Duncan has a big event going on this Saturday with all the other youth groups in town - expecting a lot of teens to come hear the bands and the speaker at Rock the Corn.
