What do you think of the girls' new hair cuts? Ok, so you can't see Olivia's very well, but isn't Emma's cute? I took them to a salon today to "fix" their hair...you might notice Emma's pigtails are a little uneven in yesterday's pictures...I've been able to do Olivia's hair well enough to hide hers...read on...
Funny story, okay, maybe not so funny...I did cry a little. I came home from work on Friday and the girls both had cute little braids in their hair that Grami had done for them that morning. Throughout the night they kept talking about cleaning up the hair for me...I pretty much ignored it. While cleaning the kitchen after dinner I realized I was missing my kitchen scissors...but no one seemed to know where they were. Then it was bath time. I went to take out Emma's braids and found myself with full long strands of hair in my hand! Then I realized her hair was super short, like all the way to her scalp short, in the left front...I freaked! That was the worst of Emma's besides the little area in the back that had been cut just above her shoulders. Olivia had cut a lot more...she has sort of a mullet thing going on right now. We had to cut Emma's to match the cut she made in the back and we are now parting her hair to the left only to cover up the big bald spot until it grows. It did turn out cute though. The hairdresser said the only way to make Olivia's look better was to cut it really short...Olivia would not allow it though so it was cut just below her shoulders. We need to keep it in an updo until it grows out. I guess it's not the end of the world...hair grows! But these two will never touch scissors again...that's for sure!
I did finally get the story of why they cut their hair. I guess while Marc was mowing our fields the girls had gotten into some cocklebur and they were stuck in their hair. Marc just told them to go take a shower...but that didn't work. Emma said Olivia was crying so hard because they wouldn't come out of their hair so Emma decided the best solution was to cut them out! When I asked why they didn't just wait until I got home they said they knew it would take a long time for me to get there and they wanted them out. Emma actually said "Mommy, I just couldn't stand to see Olivia cry anymore!" I'm just so glad this happened AFTER the wedding!

Super cute hair cuts! Sorry about the scissors - I was worried when I first started reading it had something to do with my braids! It is fun to change up our styles every now and then. I remember when Marc cut his own hair...
