May Hair try

The girls have been seeking new hairstyles so pinterest is one of their favorite places to look. Oldest saw this cute style and ACTUALLY WANTED MY HELP to do it! (can you tell that doesn’t happen often anymore? At least not with her hair, normally she’s a flat iron fiend ) It turned out that this double bun style is ridiculously EASY to do not to mention how elegant it looks finished Oldest decided to wear this with a sparkly headband, so pretty

Youngest always likes for me to do different and uniques hairstyles, it’s been her “thing” lately. Last week we saw this tutorial to create a bow woven braid. Not going to lie, this one took a little while for me to get the hang of, but once it clicked it wasn’t that hard to do, the pictures below are after the first try ever and I only did one small part of her head. We did this on both sides of her head (which was totally cute) before school one morning and that was a challenge for the simple fact that it takes serious time to weave. Both girls looked super cute with their updo’s! (I’m so glad I have girls )

P52-catching up :) weeks 20 and 21

It has been crazy busy around here as the school year winds downSo busy in fact, I ran out of time to post my P52 pictures! [Although I did actually take them the correct week so I'm giving myself points anyways ] So here we go:

Week 20-Reflection

The whole famly is relaxing on the sofa, literally! My children still try to sit on me on the loveseat, old habits I guess from toddlerhood ! We’re reflecting in the TV that was off so we could all read, or at least read different articles over eachother’s shoulders while we talked about it!

Week 21: Hands …doing what they do after a long (but definitely shorter than last week) swim meet

DH grabbed the computer, the girls a soda and their yearbooks to chat about all their friends My hands were of course on my camera, tricky to shoot that though

Hopefully with the school year finally wrapping up I can try to work on the creativity part of this challenge

Summer’s coming!

This weekend kicked off the summer swim season for my kids..the pup had to go to the dogbone pool to get her swim time in..she loves it just as much as the girls

P52 Week 19 “Office…er Supplies”

The theme for my Project 52 is “Office Supplies”. I had a hard time getting my head around this one, maybe because although I love new highlighters, awesome post its, etc. I just couldn’t think of a creative way to make an image out of them…so instead of focusing on my own office supplies I decided to focus on my husband’s office..er supplies:

P52 Week 18 Symmetry

This weeks theme is “symmetry” which was posing a challenge for me..until today when I was at the National History Day competition in Austin..symmetry in abundance!

We had a nice time and the students were super excited and proud of themselves

 

April How I view… “Friendship”

This months theme is “Friendship” for ”The Way I view..” project 12 started on Clickin Moms . April is probably one of the most stressful months in my career due to all of the state testing that happens… work friends help me through that. It is also the time of year when the girls’ events get crazy and we start transitioning from one sport to another ….end of school activities overlap with everything else…it gets a bit crazy here! Due to all of the things going on friendship in April goes to the many amazing friends I have, my darling pup who loves me despite the craziness..and my family who I can always count on despite being miles away!

Family…..

 (and my growing understanding of  the “zone” exposure system-this is SOOC )!

My girls were ready to go shopping, they donned thier scarves and thought the pup should also have one of her own ..how’s that for bestest friends lol!

Thanks for checking out how I viewed friendship..follow the circle to see how Dawne sees friendship this month!
