Summer 'Dos

I had the kids home Friday and decided it was time for summer haircuts. Drew has never had a real haircut {my sister and I have snipped her rat tail a couple of times} because her hair has been so thin and short, but it has finally gotten long enough where I thought it could use a trim, and Trent's hair isn't curly but it's...something...so it needed to be cut too to keep it under control.

Trent before

The best picture I could get of Miss Sassy Pants...but see? Stringy!

The backs for both kids

Drew was up first. She didn't know what to think of the chair, but once she got a sucker, she was good to go!

The after! A little more even with some baby layers.

The T Bug was up and decided he wanted a mohawk. He hasn't had one since he was 2, and I think that was one of his absolute cutest looks, so I was all for it!.

No turning back!

Throwing shade, ha!

All done! I didn't think he could get cuter, but he up and did it!

And then as a reward for success, ICE CREAM!

I think we knocked the summer hairdos out of the park!

Forty is a Big Number

So in reality 40 isn't that big of a number. But it is when you're talking about years of marriage! Today my parents celebrated that milestone, and I couldn't be happier for them.

Not only are they wonderful parents and grandparents, they are wonderful spouses to each other. They are such an example of what I hope Brent and I are growing toward.

They are best friends who still hold hands and enjoy each other's company. They support each other and {for the most part} know when to nag and when to let it be. In 1 word, they are a TEAM.

I've seen them argue, but I've also seen them make-up. I've seen my mom nag my dad 1 too many times, but I've also seen them dance in the kitchen because one of their favorite songs came on the radio. I've seen them go through loss, and I've seen them embrace yet another grandchild. I've seen their love for each other grow through it all.

I hope after 40 years Brent and I are as happy as they are!

Happy anniversary, you two crazy kids!
