Fantasy Up do.

We had a project this week to do a "Fantasy Up Do". By "fantasy" he meant the most far out thing you could think of to do with hair. My partner and I decided to try to do a carousel. Apparently our idea was a little more complicated than I'd originally thought it would be, but we got it to work. 
We make the carousel part out of a rotating cake stand, the motor to a Thomas the Tank engine train, Christmas ornaments, and the spool from curling ribbon. 





We wrapped the hair around some foam and a funnel to give it the shape and then painted it. Now granted, it DID NOT turn out like Tiffany and I had planned, but it was still cool that it spun and you could totally tell what it was supposed to be.
 Here are my 2 favorite entries.
 I'm pretty sure that this one will win, cause it's perfectly made. The girl that did this one is the head Wigmaster at the Shakespearian Festival. She's AMAZING!!! It's Repunzel's tower... perverts! Ha!

It was a super fun project!

Go T-Birds

The girls danced at the SUU basketball game last night. As Chris was sitting waiting for me to return from dropping them off, a lady asked Preston if he'd like to present the game ball to the refs before tip off. He was so excited. They gave him a  t-shirt, which he's STOKED to wear to school tomorrow! HA! He's suddenly the biggest fan of basketball and Gandolfo's (they sponsored the ball presentation thingy and gave him the t-shirt)  
The girls did an awesome job! Sometimes the littler (a.k.a. smaller) girls get lost in the crowd and I think my girls like it when they have smaller performances so that they get their teachers undivided attention.

Abby!

My sister Andrea had her first baby on Saturday Morning at 11:04 am. 
Little Miss Abilgail Laine Adams
 6 pounds 5 oz 
19 1/2 inches long 


 Boy, I'm baby hungry.... but then I remind myself that they turn into this:
Ha!  She may not be tiny any more, but I wouldn't trade her for anything in the world!

Makeover

I had to do a makeover on someone for a project at school. Brittany was nice enough to drive all the way down from Salt Lake to let me do it on her. For the record: she DOES NOT normally go out like this! She had to arrive with no makeup, un-styled hair and grungy clothes for the "before picture"
I LOVE the new look and she was such a good sport to let me experiment on her! It was fun hanging out with her for a few hours too. I don't think we've ever really gotten to hang out that long! Thanks Brit! 


 A few days later, Preston was with me while I finished a few things at school. He found the washer and was FASCINATED!!! All of us got quite a kick out of him watching the washing machine. Obviously, we don't have a front load washer. We need to get this kid out a little more HA!

Friendly fun!

Yeah, Yeah I know... it's been a while! Sorry! The kids got new rollerblades for Christmas so a few weeks ago, I took the kids skating for a play date. They had a blast!
