Bye Bye Goldilocks

Well it happened! Rhaegan has been asking for a while now if she could get her hair cut. And when I say "cut" I mean chopped off. She's of course gotten trims here and there, but now it was time for the real deal. I had to work on the day my mom decided to take her so I gave specific instructions on the length and off she went. Below the collarbone was my only request.

As you can see my request was ignored. My mom tried to convince her to keep it longer but Rhaegan wanted it short. She actually wanted it even shorter than this but luckily my mom stayed strong.

When she came to work to show me I didn't even recognize her. That can not be my little Rhaegan was my first thought. I'm not going to lie, I was a little emotional about it at first. Now that I've had a week or so to get use to it, it has definitely grown on me. I actually love it and have to realize it's Rhaegan's hair not mine. If she loves it then that's all that matters (and she LOVES it).

Day two and three...

So here are the pictures from the rest of our Halloween. Sorry they are over a week late. Friday was Rhaegan's Halloween party at school which she was looking forward to for over a week. Below is a picture of her class all decked out int their adorable costumes. Their teacher, Mrs. Murray is such a fun lady. The kids just adore her.
Then Saturday was our "trick or treating" day. It was pretty chilly out so we drove around the neighborhoods collecting candy. Luckily Marlee's costume was super warm. Rhaegan, as you can see, was so excited about being allowed to wear makeup. She wore it proudly and acted like a typical preteen. Now I know the Bengals are not doing very well this year but being a Cincinnati fan we had to go with the Tiger costume for our little animal.
Luckily Krista was in town for Halloween and was able to come with us to all of our activities. She also brought along her wonderful camera and photography skills and captured some amazing pictures for us. For more pictures by Krista check out her blog, http://adamowfamily.blogspot.com


It was a great Halloween and I am really enjoying the candy stash we have now. Fortunately it's in our bedroom so we can keep an eye on how much our girls consume (they are candy monsters).
