Crazy Hair Day

This past week has been spirit week at the ol' Canyon View Elementary, and our very own Lindsay Lou has participated whole heatedly.

Yesterday was, I'm sure you've already guessed, Crazy Hair Day Day Day day day..... Thanks echo announcer guy.

My inspiration you ask? It's no surprise that I am having Spring fever pretty darn bad. I'm about to drive up the street to Home Depot and walk through their flower isle whilst I play bird songs or Vivaldi on my iPod. I would sport a pair of my longed for capri pants and sip on a fast food cup of lemonade. Ahhh.... Anyways, Lindsay's hair was turned into a little flower patch. The buns, of course are the flowers. The parts of the buns that fell out and refused to stay under their bobby pins? Leaves. (just go with it) The stems or vines of the flowers were the twists of hair connecting to the little knobby buns. Throw in some butterfly clips and a purple flower headband, voila!

She was very happy with the results and had quite a few complements, which I had her repeat to me a few times. I'm a sucker for praise, I'm not gonna lie! I was amazed that it stayed all day honestly.

A quick update on Jeff's job, he LOVES it. I haven't seen him be this happy to go to work in years. He loves it and it will do great things for this family. :)

I love it! I was actually thinking about you too! I hope things are looking up in your life (it certainly sounds like it!). I love the hair! My daughter wouldn't let me do the crazy hair to her when she was younger. Now it is straight and boring every day. Atleast she is allowing you to "play". Wishing you many more happy "sunny" days!

You found my new posts!! Yeah. And a big thanks on all of your comments. I'm gonna email you my response to your comments. :)

I wish we had crazy hair day. That sounds fun. We have go western day. My boys had fun with it this year, but I would much rather play dress up with a daughter. You did a great job.

Very cute!! She's lucky to have such a creative mom!!

Your creativity amazes me. We usually just put the hair up into as many hair holders that will stay in and call it good. But a "themed" crazy hair. What a great idea.
