Christmas cookies 2007

Well tis the season, at least thats what they say, but this holiday has seemed (this year especially) kinda a downer, missing my mom has made this harder than I thought. Well I decided to do something fun with the kids and thought they would like it too. So I bought a cookie decorating kit and set it the dinning room and went at it.

The kids went gangbusters and I have to admit it did put me in a great mood. For a little while I did forget that we had a tough year and made me really proud of my kids for not fighting over these sprinkles or those sprinkles etc. etc. etc. Though Xmas shopping and decorating have become my least favorite things I will look back at these pictures and be happy for my kids and always think of their beautiful faces.

What not to do when your a MOM

So my cousin thinks I should get blogging, Well here goes, My first time I will have to tell you I thought it would be fun to dye my daughters hair. Well it said Fusha on the package and boy was it ever hot pink. We decided that two stripes on the sides(big stripes) and all her hair underneath would be cute. And boy was it.

It was so much fun and we all loved it!! Well not everyone loved it. Her school had a fit, called me at work told me basically she was not allowed back to school until her hair was washed out. "Washed out" hmm, pretty sure permanent meant just that but what are you gonna do she still had a month left at school and being kicked out was just plain stupid. So when in Rome........

That right re-dye it!!!! Well how can you change that color you might ask? Well by making her hair BLACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I feel that I should defend my self I really didnt think that it was going to be such a big deal. It just goes to show you that even moms screw up. Thank goodness shes back to being my beautiful little girl!
