"I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully tailored clothes...and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp...I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really there, and that I really lived."

~Marjorie Hinckley



"Our lives are frittered away by detail; simplify, simplify." Henry David Thoreau



"Besides the noble art of getting things done, there is a nobler art of leaving things undone. The wisdom of life consists in the elimination of nonessentials." Lin Yutang

Locks of Love

Yep! I did it....said goodbye to my long hair!
Kylie and I donated about 14 inches each to Locks of Love....for girls under 21 who are going through cancer treatments and lose their hair, Locks of Love provides wigs for them to wear through donations like ours. Here's before...

and here's after....

It took some getting used to, but I have to admit...I am loving it :)....and I think Kylie is, too. It's a nice change of pace. I have to wonder, though, if I will ever have long hair like that again...hmmm...time will tell. Here's our hair all packaged up ready to mail....hoping some little girl enjoys having it!

Just a reminder....YOU ARE AWESOME!!!
