Halloween and a Haircut

Here's a picture of Kadie's new haircut. Her hair was getting kind of shaggy and I wanted to get it cut a few months ago. She was excited to get it cut, but the first salon we went to had intelligence issues when it comes to actually serving customers and we weren't able to get it cut. After that I took her somewhere else and got her seated in the chair, but she started to cry and I couldn't get her to stop so we just went home. We were finally able to accomplish the deed by taking her to the house of a friend and getting it cut in her home. She initially cried quite a bit, but I was willing to stick it out in a home rather than a business. (I also threatened that we would shave her head to look like daddy's if she wouldn't let the lady cut it. Nice mom, huh?) After the woman started cutting her hair, she did fine and now her hair is a little easier to do since it isn't as long.

This year for Halloween the girls wanted to be fairies.
Here's are close-ups of fairy #1:

...and fairy #2:

The fairies together:

We had to improvise a little since both sets of wings were originally for Kadie's costume. Taylor decided at the last minute that she didn't want to wear a princess dress and wanted to be a fairy as well, so we shared the wings and found another skirt. Here's Kadie getting ready to trick-or-treat at a library event.

We took both the girls to a Halloween party at our church where they had dinner, games, and trick-or-treating. After trick-or-treating, they turned on music and let everyone dance in the middle. The girls had a blast dancing and jumping around and it was adorable! They both certainly have some moves!

Happy Halloween!
