A Day in the Life: December 2010

First Haircut!

Well, we did it! Mackenzie had her hair cut for the first time! Before anyone gets anxious, if I hadn't mentioned it, you wouldn't even know it. I think we took off maybe an inch. It cleaned up the bottom a little but was by no means drastic. Mackenzie was excited to go once I assured her that it would not hurt. :o)

We get to a kids salon called Lollilocks. It's a super cute place and a pretty fun experience. It was a little sunny standing in the front of the door!

Getting her brushed out without a single tear or complaint. How come that never happens at home? And yes, she's sitting on a pink elephant!

Serious face

She got to pick her "mini-hairstyle" once her hair was cut. She was so proud of it.

Poser...but a cute poser!!

Sophie the Wonder Giraffe

So, I had never heard of Sophie. But thanks to some Facebook posts by my cousin Brook and a mention to my sister, we are now the proud owners of what pretty much amounts to a chew toy. Yep. If you step on it, it squeeks like something the dog would chew on. And Taylor loves it! The thing is pretty cute and it's easy to grab and...chew on.

So Much To Be Thankful For

Thanksgiving this year was a little different but not really. We started out the day celebrating Mackenzie's birthday, then we did turkey day, and then we had birthday cupcakes. Not your typical Thanksgiving. But it was great! Byron's mom and dad were here and we celebrated the day with our good friends', the McIntyre's. Don's mom and dad were also here and we had a wonderful time with lots of food and fellowship!

It wouldn't be a McIntyre turkey if it wasn't fried!!
