0 way back when

Photobucket

One of my favorite things about coming home so far
has been watching old family videos and looking at all the pictures
we've kept over the years.
{ie: the one above of Caytlyn and I in the MOST perfect matching outfits i've ever seen}

Husband has been thoroughly entertained throughout the week as siblings, I and many many old videos have relived our young antics and embarrassing moments.
They are the best.

The other day, we got to meet my sister
Caytlyn's boyfriend, Jordan for the first time.
Seriously, great guy.
Anyways, all of us, having the impecable taste that we do,
showed up that night wearing our festive Christmas plaid.
{we decided that American Eagle should hire us for their next commerial...we make quite the advertisement}
Wonder what everyone will wear for next weeks's double date?

2 everyone was freaking out...so I changed it OKAAAY??









Whelp... I did it.

Yesterday, after extensive thought, consideration, and some serious husband convincing, I went into the salon and told them to strip me of my dark locks and take me back to my roots. Yep, THOSE roots. The reddish, brownish, kind of 'goldish-but-not-really' roots, {make up your mind ladies} that I've been avoiding for years.
This all being in the name of healthy and {eventually} long locks. That is, if I can stay away from her. {you see, i went to a beauty college to save a little dough. apparently, they're a little scissor happy there} I practically had to threaten my stylist with a VOGUE beating unless she removed her clippers from the back of my neck. {yes, the chopping was that close to happening...husband would have died}

But you know, even though I've been a dark devotee for so long...after watching years and years {and years} worth of dark dye lift out of my hair and run down the drain...I felt slightly liberated, {a little bit naked} but mostly just liberated. So it's all good now. With my locks still intact, and back to their natural and indecisive reddish, brownish and not-really-goldish hue, I look forward to months and months of 'no touch-up' bliss.

and bonus, husband really likes it.

8 design stuff

this post is purely for my own sake. just so I can look back a year
from now and decide whether I think my mag. design skills are weak-sauce or not.
at this point, it's feeling a little like the former.
any feedback?
