Swimming, Anyone?

Our pool is finished and we have been enjoying it (after school and homework) for a couple of weeks now. The Dad's barbecue is done too, so we have also been enjoying some great summertime meals. But it's not just chicken and burgers - he makes some mean grilled veggies... scrumptious! So now the countdown is underway: 8 more school days and we're officially plunging into summer! After that, we expect to be wrinkly, puckered and thoroughly waterlogged all day long.

Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow

Check out the girls in the 'before and after' photos. (Cutiepie is staying true to the idea that in the 'before' photo you should look unhappy.) They decided to donate their hair to Locks of Love. The girls both had the required ten-inch minimum length, so this time they could donate together. (Short Stuff has donated her hair once before.) Bye-bye, hippie hair... Hello, short and sassy!
