Emily and Allison ordering "Shades of Blue" dresses. Emily is wearing the style ordered (Alli is trying on a different one for sizing). Note the cute split in the side of the skirt with netting and more beading and embellishments (if you can see it). The dresses will be a lovely, deep blue. And the entire group of 14 girls are going to not just add straps but sleeves also. Well, a few of the Moms are going to add sleeves, including yours truly.
I also "got" to take the girls shopping for supplies for the Youth Ward activity tonight and the Laurel camp out. Do they really need to eat? Prescription shopping. At least this time I didn't break a nail polish bottle all over Walgreen's floor. I also took Mom to WalMart and Jo Ann, searching for an elusive yarn texture. We also went to the doctor's office for vaccination boosters (whooping cough is on the rise). And the girls didn't cry! We stopped to pick up Grandma, who was getting a perm, and took the opportunity for one of the girls to donate to Locks of Love, again! Two feet in four years. Wow. Dumb question, from behind can you tell who got her hair cut...?
Yes, it was my Emily. Look at all that natural wave. She's thrilled because all she has to do is use a little product and let dry. Oh, she has to put forth effort to scrunch it as it dries. I think she looks adorable! And just in time for Senior Pictures. Because she was a good girl for the doctor and the hairdresser Emily earned a cherry Slurpee. I now can recommend the Crystal Light Apple Mango flavor. And Alli likes watermelon. And Helen is happy with Diet Coke. And I'm happy to, finally, be home.

Her hair looks great!
Oh My!! First of all what pretty dresses and the sleeves will make them even more so. The hair! Michael guessed it was Em before he even saw the picture. I wish you could have seen how big his eyes got when he saw it!! Emily, it is a hard thing to lose so much hair but what a good cause! I am proud of you for being so generous with that amazingly thick mane you have been blessed with!!
What a busy day for the Mama! Put your feet up and sigh!
Loves to you!
Wow! They both look so beatiful and grown up! Ah! I love the hair cut on Em, and Ali's long maine is GORGEOUS! I remember having hair like that... I think I want it back!
Wow, cute girls, cute dresses, cute hair, what more could you ask for?? I'm always so impressed when I hear about girls who have donated their hair to Locks of Love or something similar. Savanna told me some months ago that she wanted to do that, however now that her hair is getting almost long enough, I wonder if she'll beable to go through with it...actually I wonder if her mom can go through with it. Good for you for being supportive of your daughter's sacrifice. P.S. I haven't heard anything about Michael and BB, is he liking it OK?
Emily and Allison... you are both beautiful girls! I wish we saw more of each other. You both look cute in those dresses! I hope all is well with the family! We love you!!

LOVE the haircut, Emily! Someone is going to be awfully lucky to get your beautiful donated hair.
Hi Gena, Has Chris (Elder Faria) mentioned anything about knowing this family who just lost their son in Heber City week before last? They live in Maine and were vacationing in Utah at the time their son died. He was 16, went to Falmouth H.S. I have a very distant connection to the family and just wondered if Chris knew them from his mission.
