Ashley's 1st Haircut and some fun in the SUN!

Well, I know it's probably long overdue but Ashley finally "wanted" to get her hair cut. Last weekend, out of nowhere she asked if she could. I told her that we'd give it a week and if she still wanted to cut it we would go get it done. Well, all throughout the week that's what she wanted. Yesterday, John and I took the girls out for the day and our first stop was to Kids Kuts. We walk in and Ashley quickly realizes what kind of work is done there. You can see the mood change instantly. She went from happy to lucky to petrified in an instant. I asked her if she was ready to get her hair done and she said "NO, not today!"Luckily, her stylist was great and between her and myself we managed to get her to the chair. :) She was terrified about the whole process all the way through getting her hair washed until she was asked what flavor shampoo she wanted. After that simple question was asked, again her mood changed completely. Now she was interested and happy about this thing we call getting our hair done. In the end, she did amazingly well and looks beautiful. I do miss her long locks but this new short do is going to save us so many headaches and battles with the brush and she does look adorable if I do say so myself. Afterwards, we had a nice lunch at one of our favorite restaurants and then headed off to the zoo. Did I mention that the weather is in the 70's today and yesterday? Oh, it feels like heaven! We had a great day out. Enjoy the pictures.
