Hair: woven piggy knots


AHHH....once again, so sorry for the poor quality of pict....I'm without a camera!








Hair: Twist Crown

So, Yeah....totally getting addicted to the whole hair thing! Love doing cute "do's" for Ashlyn!!!
I actually sat at the ball field and did a little girl's hair tonight at Kolby's ballgame! It's fun trying to come up w/ new and creative "do's"! And, yeah....she sleeps in them I add a little more water and goo---and she wears them for MORE THAN ONE DAY!!! I did this Sat, and I refurbished it and she wore it to church Sunday too!!





Whaalllaa! My new bathroom Walls!!







It took about 1 hour...THAT'S IT! And, these picts don't even almost do it justice...so much better in person! It's so warm and model home-ish! It WAS very sterile and blah......I put a rubber glove on, then a jersey cotton glove over that was all of $1.50 and mixed 1 part Truffle paint to 3 parts glaze and I dipped my glove in the paint and rubbed on the glaze....it was the fastest and easiest paint project ever! Now I have to run out to Hobby Lobby tomorrow and get a shelf and a couple of picts!














Quickest Bathroom Make-over EVER!! Before Picts

So, my camera died at the St. Louis Zoo--it sat in my bag in some liquid that spilled...still not sure what it was! Then my phone died too....so, I'm having to rely on my mom's camera--which isn't the most recent camera w/ the 1" viewer...all of that to say--sorry for the quality of picts....I couldn't tell they were that bad when I took them....but we moved in 5 years ago and our 1/2 bath had a cool wrinkly tissue paper technique on the walls, but it look horribly boring and bland...so, I have been wanting to glaze over them...so, Mom and I did it today! She's visiting for 3 weeks and this was a project I wanted to complete during her visit!

As Rare as a $2

So I came downstairs and this is what I found.....WOW...this gives me hope that they may be close and love each other when they grow up....and they may even like each other....no, really! This NEVER happens....Kaden doesn't like anyone close...especially his sister! They were all cuddled up on the couch watching cartoons....gotta love Kameron's lovely bed head!

Kam's Orange Baseball Fun

Kam is so sad that he can't play ball...but he was sure having fun w/ oranges at Kaden's game.....he was very creative.....that's what we call it, right? So we have 3-4 baseball games a week...and I gave the kids the lecture that they were not going to get something at the concession stand every time we are at a game....we could spend $20/ night if we let them...so I packed me a baseball bag full of wipes, bug spray, spoons, capri sun's, fruit cups, oranges---b/c kameron eats them like candy, and I went to Rural King and bought big bags of candy, and off we go!! So....I guess he was bored watching Kaden's game! Oh, at our games...the kids get paid to play....they each get $1 after they play...to go spend at the concession stand....so, 3 of the 4 get something a week there.....and we fold and get Kam something too...so, they aren't doing without!!














Baseball fun-Kaden

OK, so I'm so not a self proclaimed photographer...or even close....and apparently I'm too lazy to get my butt up and get a picture that's not through the fence...oh well....so, here's Kaden batting...and catching...that's right folks...catching....Kaden catching??? It was hilarious....he's so not into extra voluntary exertion....he didn't get up 'til the batter had reached first!! Kelly kept telling him he had to get up each time! He would get the bat out of the way of the runner's though! We asked him if he liked it...he said, NO! NO SURPRISE there! It was hilarious! He never complained though! WAY TO GO KADEN!





A Twist on Piggy Knots


Loved this....she loved it too!
Shoot, I forgot to take a pict of her Sunday do....it was the twist (like the one here)...didn't do the back one....then pulled it all into a side pony messy bun...added a flower...she looked like a tropical princess!!








Hair do attempt 2


ok....I think this is almost easier than a french braid....you do it w/ 2 instead of 3 and you do NOT take from each side you take all the way across each time....does that make sense...you twist each strand toward her face....take the bottom one and put it on top.....and twist as you go.. adding to the bottom twist each time!..I love the twist french braid!

Hair-Do's




Like I said before, I'm new to the whole blogging thing....who would have thought that they would have HAIR blogs for little girls hair-do's.....I LOVE DOING HAIR!! I did my hair for my wedding, as well as several of the girls hair in my wedding....I've done hair and make up for weddings....I love doing my daughter's hair for her dance recitals....I love these new do's I tried....so here's my first attempt! It's so easy!
