Bayleann's new look!!!

Ok I know two posts in one day...can ya handle it :o)

Anyway Bayleann wants to share some exciting news with the world.....remember how she had a FULL and I mean FULL head of hair....

this is from her dance recital in may 11'

now our little peanut looks like this......

About a week ago she was looking a  picture of my mom and she asked about her hair...well in that picture mom is wearing a wig (at the time she was going through chemo).  She thought about this alittle and said "Is it real"  meaning real hair and I said yes it is....they have a company that gets donations from people that cut their hair so they can make wigs for people who are sick...

Well about an hour later she said "Mommy can I do that with my hair?" I said of course but that means you would have to cut quite a bit off.  She said ok and went to get the scissors....I almost started to cry (ok I did alittle!)

I told her mom can't cut it but we can go to the salon and have it done. So yesterday we went to our friend Heidi and she got a new do! Bayleann told Heidi exactly what she wanted-

She cut off 15 INCHES-she hasn't had a hair cut since she was two!

Off with the tail!

she's dancin with Heidi when she's blow drying her head! What a putz!

Her donation of hair to Lock of Love!

The back...

And the tail!

Happy Father's Day

I know it was last Sunday but I'm just getting around to getting the pictures on here...Want to wish my wonderful husband a Happy Father's Day!
The kids woke him up with their cards and hugs-n-kisses then we made a special breakfast and ate outside on our new patio set.  It was an awsome morning!  It was actually our first meal on our new furniture -
We had gone to a garage sale out in the boonee's a week ago and while Andy & the kids waited patiently in the truck (yes that day we drove the truck for some reason-glad we did!) I was loading up on clothes for Bayleann (they had tons of great clothes cheap just her size! JACKPOT!) and there was this table and chairs that was marked $45.00 and I thought hey that's a good deal....well got Andy to come look at it and he's just shrugged his shoulders & didn't really care. So I went to pay and said we'll take the table/chairs and the lady said ok $30.00! I almost did a happy dance in her garage! So we bought the set put it on the deck and the next morning Andy was the first one to sit & eat something out there.....even though he complained when he had to load the thing!

Giving Dad some love!

Austin didn't want pictures...he wanted food!

Andy's Snow Goose Hunt-March 2011

So I said earlier that I was going to post some of the pictures from the snow goose hunt Andy got to go on this past spring....haven't done it and Andy is getting impatient! :o) Love you dear! So here are the pics from that hunt....He went out to Ipswich South Dakota in March & hunted with a cool group of guys-they had a good time.  This is something that was on Andy's "bucket" list- and I'm sure he'll be going back there next year again.

I was impressed he got one of the other guys to take a picture of
the kill for the day...He's a pretty proud man!

The guys split up the kill & these are the geese Andy came home with.

Austin told Dad that he's going with next year!

This guy is going to be flying from our ceiling soon-lucky bird!

This guy too-couldn't let the first one get lonely now could we!

The kids helpin Dad clean them...one thing that is cool about snow geese their feathers are SOOOOO soft and fluffy.  I would have loved to keep them and make a pillow or something.

Hard at it!

What hams.

Giving the dead goose some love :)

Happy Birthday Mom!

Happy Birthday to our favorite angel! There isn't a day that goes by that we don't miss you! You are forever in our hearts!

We love you Mom! We love you Grandma Judy!
