Here's one for you
Since I am horrible at blogging but I should say something I just thought I would tell you that I decided I do NOT like Ramen Noodles. Yuck! I just made them for lunch and I couldn't finish them. They are gross.... So that's it for now. When a few of the hectic and busy things in my life subside just a little I will blog an actual real post.

Pretty Bab...ies
There have been a lot of changes lately but the most exciting change is that Micaela and Phil are moving back to Salt Lake with their 3 lovely chillins. I'm so excited because I just adore these little ones. Another exciting change is that Micaela's sister in Law Abby just got married. This brings us to the reason of this post. New Hair! Yay!
Ok disclaimer, yes I do hair. Yes I know how to cut children's hair but in this case I thought it would be alright for the girls to go to Cookie Cutters instead of me cutting their hair. Cookie Cutters is an awesome place set up just for children's haircuts. It's quite brilliant actually! They have cute little stations, each equipped with children friendly items, including but not limited to: Salon chairs designed to look like airplanes/cars etc... Playstation, and DVDs to watch so they stay focused. Here's the deal with cutting kids hair, It's hard! Children are all born with a short attention span (sometimes even as adults it's still the case) therefore, cutting their hair can be a nightmare. Have you ever tried to cut bangs on a child and they move their head and all of a sudden you've cut off way more than planned? Well I have! It's frustrating and then you feel bad. The most clever thing I could come up with when cutting a child's hair was to put my monster cape on them, point out a monster for them to look at and have them count to 10. Yeah it worked a little but they got bored fast. So anyway, my point being, I fully support my sister's decision to take the little ones to Cookie Cutters for their first haircuts. Plus, then I got to take pictures, woo hoo!

The concert was In the Venue and we arrived a little late unfortunately but thanks to some kind people we were able to get a great spot on the top balcony.
The show was opened by an awesome Band From Sweden named "Loney Dear" and they were very good! Toby and I later got CDs and got to chat for a bit with the lead Singer.
Andrew Bird is mesmorizing to watch. He's so talented and has a very unique and awesome style.
Great Stuff!
So here's some Loney Dear as well FYE
