the hair saga and other things

i have too much hair.  it's too abundant and too thick for stuff like this to really work,  but it turned out okay. there was a fun curl to it and ended up working fine.

the back had hardly any curl to it.

there was some decent curl in the front, but it was uneven.  ah well.

the valentines dinner was spectacular.  an older couple that dave met through his friday morning book/bible study have a tradition of inviting a handful of couples over for a valentines dinner to celebrate love.  they pick new couples every year.  we were thrilled to get picked!

we had yummy food and wine, told our love stories and then they spoke blessings over us and gave us each a journal to write love notes in and leave for our spouses to find.  it was a very special evening.

and then sunday, avery and i met up with ellen, laura and their girls for some swim time.

 it seems as if avery has recovered from this.

you should have seen avery's face when i woke her up from her nap and told her we were meeting micah and amiah at the y to swim.  priceless!

hey! i think your hair looks pretty great!
keep practicing and i bet you'll figure out how to even out the curl and even aybe loosen some of it up so that it just waves like that looser side!
just a kinda beachy messy look...
that my 2 cents :)
thanks for sharing this.
and keep practicing it! it took a couple times for me to really get it.

I know everyone wants what they don't have but I'm super jealous of your hair that is "too adundant and too thick"! I'd kill for some of that :)
