A Sunday afternoon with my babies.

I was excited first for Kala, cause I thought she was getting pretty close.  Then, I read Diana's and thought, nope... she's closer!  And Joleen and Elizabeth were both also onto something with the whole Diane Keaton hair thing!!  Anyway, I have a surprise for every one of you who participated!  Just read on, and I will explain at the end.  

Now, had I never posted the previous post, this is what I would've said....

 Last Sunday, I met my friend Cindy at ElChico's.  I took the three little girly girls, and they were pretty impressed with the tableside guacamole preparation.

 I didn't realize there were only a couple of places in the entire town who has tableside guac.  Apparently, it is somewhat of a rarity?!

Mallison called and wanted to come see us and tell us byebye as she would be heading back down south to Baton Rouge.  Because we were at the restaurant, she agreed to come there to say our goodbyes.

 I gave "points" to the girls while in the restaurant and told them they could earn a treat from the dollar store.  So, when we left ElChico's, we swung by the Dollar Tree and each one of them picked up a prize.  Ellie got that fake long hair with the braid on top.  Madi chose a pack of Mardi Gras masks.

 I just about couldn't believe it when Ellie was trying them both on, paired with the bow that Gabs got for Christmas, and which just happened to be in the back of the car.  She looked just like that chick from Hunger Games.  Cracked me up!

 I told all  the girls to come take a selfie together, and suggested we all make "mean faces".  Gabs didn't really get that concept!  Note Ellie still has on her hair braid and extensions.  ANd for the record, a purple mask leaves a seriously dark magenta colored stain on your face if you wear it and run and sweat.  I didn't think it was going to come off.

 But it did.

Did I mention I got a button machine for Christmas?  And Ellie Sue went through my photos I'd printed off and made, ooooohhh, something like 10 buttons... one for everyone we know, I think!!

 This one is going to Mary Allison.  I meant to give it to her to take it back to her dorm to remember her good ol' Stepmom!

And finally, did anyone watch the Golden Globes awards?  I think that is what it was?!  Well, I've been thinking about getting my hair cut lately.  I sent a text to Polly, my hair girl, and asked her to look at my Pin board called "my style" on Pinterest.  She looked at it and sent me three favorites.  I really liked them all.  But then.... there was Diane Keaton.

 ANd I thought, that's IT!  I can tuck the long layers behind my ears.  I could still get it into a ponytail.  The primary goal is to decrease the amount of time required to get ready!  I hate having to dry my hair and especially the fact that I have to straighten it every day or otherwise wear it in a ponytail or bun! My hair has a good bit of natural curl.  But, when it is as long as it is now, it won't really curl up.  So, there is no option but to straighten it.  And that is too time consuming!  Dilemma!

Stay tuned to see what I choose!  Or maybe what Polly chooses for me.  That's how I roll!  She chooses my color for me every time!!
