mom + daughter weekend

Well I am really tired from running around this weekend, but mom and I did a ton of stuff.  After throwing up all Thursday mom picked me up at my apartment and took me home.  Friday, feeling much better, I was excited for my  hair appointment.  Okay, so friends you should know that I don't "do" short hair.  I feel so strange, naked, and ugly with a short look.  However, my ends were getting really, really bad.  I wanted highlights too, so off we went to the salon.

I don't think this photo is very good, but there are some nice layers and highlights in there.  I think in about a month when it's a touch longer I'll like it better.  For the meantime I'll just have to feel naked.

Friday evening we had reservations at Salut, which is in my favorite part of town.  Because of my previous throwing up situation I did not feel like getting their famous chocolate fondue, but I did enjoy the oysters.  Yum!

Then Saturday aside from working like crazy people on moving furniture around we did make several shopping runs.  I scored big at Old Navy with two pairs of capri pants for work (yeah, I got the daycare job) and a new jean jacket (have been looking for one for ever).  Then on to Target for a new polo shirt and a new church dress (see below post for details).

Today we tried out the family ward, and a family with six kids all close in age sat in front of us.  Woah, it was so loud!  I could not believe it.  Needless to say I am happy to go back to my singles ward.  LOL.

Yes, the difference between the quiet of a singles ward to the chaos of a family ward is pretty drastic :). My children are very loud, even when they are happy, and i feel like I am constantly taking them out because I don't want them to disturb everyone. it is so nice when they get old enough to play quietly. But yes, enjoy the quiet while you have it :).

Even with just one with me today, she was rather loud. I asked her to stop hollaring (we were shopping), and she proclaimed, " I ain't no holla-back girl"...I know I listen to the radio when she is in the car, but I had no idea she was paying attention to the words!!

It is oddly quiet when both are napping, and I love it!

I love that because you were sick you didn't eat chocolate but you did eat oysters! That's hilarious to me. :) Cute dress! And aren't family wards insanely loud when you're used to the nice, quiet singles wards?? :) Oh cute hair by the way!
