Hair and mouse shoes. Random.

Let's start out with the hair. These are Maddie's new bangs :) She needed these! A few days before Christmas Aunt Jessica was over and Mad was runnin around with some crazy hair in her face and eyes. So Aunt Jessica to the rescue. Thank goodness.
That's better huh boo?

So cute! She looks older :(
Slow down from that growin up baby girl.
Thanks Jessica!

Hmmm, what's this? Now to the mouse shoes part. On Christmas Eve Preston had an announcement. He said to put this day down in the record books as the day he is throwing away these awful shoes! K these aren't just the occasional shoes you wear while you paint. Although as you can see, he did that in them too. These shoes were worn nearly everyday for I don't know how many years. To work everyday, to mow the lawn, a trip to the store, etc. Preston does have other shoes. Nice shoes. But no, we had to wear these out until they had no wear in them. This is so classic Preston. I don't want to embarrass him here. He needs to admit he is frugal to the core! I love him but it tends to drive me crazy!
That is why it was a big announcement.
I have been trying to get him to throw these out for YEARS!
Oh, why "mouse shoes" you say? I think they look like the shoes the little mice wear in the Disney animated classic Cinderella. So, I have been referring to them as that for some time. Two words for you. GOOD RIDDANCE.

p.s. On the left shoe just next to the paint spot in the middle, there is a darker area. One day Preston came up with a "fun" little pass time. I was supposed to guess what made that dark area. Answer: It is where the foot shifter on the 4 wheeler rubs. Hmmm. We are weird people. Just fyi, I guessed it.

I thot her hair looked different yesterday but I didn't know what it was. She is so cute and funny.
The shoes are very sad and they might be the worst shoes I have seen :-)
As for the hair thing Carrie, maybe we need to ask our professional. Maybe we need some really stong prenatals, or some gelatain, or some shock treatments. Maybe they could bring the shocking wand out of the hazardous waste bin.
Sorry I am a dork.

Ohhhh....Maddie has bangs now too! I love em! I have thought about giving bangs to Jozie but with her wicked cowlick it just seemed wrong to me :)
Happy B-day QT!

Preston frugal? Hummm...wonder where he got that from? Not from me!
It's weird we came from the same womb....I'm not frugal at all, and I love it!
