Before and after pictures of Jess on hi-light day Yay!! Looking forward to a long weekend! I was able to get off of work early, pick up the kids and get started on our weekend a little sooner than expected. Glenn got off early, grilled some chicken and then we all swam in the pool for awhile. Today, Jessica went to get her hi-lights done at Judi's and they turned our really natural looking............just what I wanted. I figure that the time in the pool this summer will lighten them up a bit more so I didn't want to get anything drastic looking done.

Tomorrow marks the one year anniversary of the day when I first started noticing that something was wrong with me before I was diagnosed with Leukemia. I am thinking about posting some kind of rememberance story about everything I went through back then. I just have to figure out how I will go about doing that within this same bl

Well, I'm a little late with this post, but the Birthday Luau party was a blast! I think all of the girls had a great time. I counted 15 little girls, 6 older girls, and 15 adults..........that's quite a large group! Jess and her friends, along with Brianna and Cailin really helped watch the younger girls so that I could tend to everything else. The grilled chicken and beef skewers and fruit kabobs were a hit with everyone. Alyssa got a lot of nice gifts as well as quite a few gift cards that seem to be burning a hole in her pocket. I guess I know what we'll be doing this weekend. :0) Speaking of this weekend, Jess will be getting her hi-lights on Saturday morning. I'll have to post some before and after pictures of her new hair style. Nothing much planned for the Memorial Weekend..........I think we'll play it by ear and see if it takes us anywhere!
