ya know... DIY

I'm a DIY kinda gal.  I make my own wall-hangings, cut my boys' hair, try to make homemade food as much as possible... I'm all about doing stuff on my own and it saves a buck along the way... so NATURALLY, it only seems LOGICAL for me to pierce my own daughter's ears!  Right?  My sister provided the gun, I went and grabbed some earrings, and we just did it.  Random huh?  They might be slightly, and I mean slightly crooked, but I think they are super cute!  It really is not as hard as it sounds and I highly recommend just doing it at home!  ($10 too!)  I mean, how much training do those Claire's teenagers get anyway?!

This is right after so her right ear is a little red.  It's fine now!

Another DIY I have been doing lately is highlighting my hair.  Again, not as hard as it sounds and I can do it just how I like it.  Well... I decided to get it done professionally this time.  I went to a new girl, and somehow there was a miscommunication on what color I wanted and so I got...

PLATINUM!  Sorry for the lame pic.  Holy cow it was a shocker at first.  I'm going to try to get used to it, otherwise I might need to DIY some lowlights!
