Hair

So I am dying here, this hair of mine, is outta control. It's gotton to the point where it does nothing & I LOVE my melt but I kinda feel like a change. So I need some of your opinions :)!

1. Bangs, I have wanted bangs for a long while but I have been to chicken. I think I would start out with some swoop bangs then maybe venture out to full bangs.

2. Blonde, at times I miss my luscious blonde locks, but then I remember then insane upkeep of them.

3. More of a blonde melt, this makes sense, I keep my lovely melt & get my blonde, without lots of upkeep.

4. Chop it off...let's be honest, I'd be CRAZY to do this, so I think this one may get vetoed out right away, but I could use a good 3 inches off.

5. Dark, I have been dark before and I LOVED it, it was so healthy for my hair.


What are your thoughts?

My mind as of today

- My best friend gets home in less than 4 months, 4 MONTHS people. I get so excited every time I think of this.

-I kinda have the best husband ever.

- This whole buying a house thing, is getting pretty old. We are SO ready to move and have our own space again (I really love you parents, I just like my own house). I try to just think of all the money we are saving rather than the whole month we still have to wait to move. Crosby on the other hand, never wants to leave his new backyard, I think he will cry when he realizes he won't be there everyday anymore.

- I fear that Instagram has taken over my addiction to Blogger & Facebook...All you have to do is post a photo and it will explain your whole day, my kinda social media for sure!

- The Dark Knight Rise's....amazing. Seeing it 6 hours BEFORE the midnight showing...amazing. Reminising of one of our first dates seeing The Dark Knight...amazing. Loved the movie & love that boy.

-That dress up there, I could wear every day, maxi dresses/skirts have taken over my closet. Yet somehow I still beg Ben for more.

-Weekend you took far too long to come, sleeping in is on my To Do list this weekend.

Scrapbook

I really gotta take my pictures so my 2012 scrapbook isn't 10 pages haha, here are some from lately.

I use My Memories & LOVE it.

Vegas

Ben was asked to teach at a conference for work a while back and we had originally planned on us driving down and spending time there after. But since we decided to buy a house I decided to just stay here and have him fly with work in hopes of saving more money for our house. We found out right before he left that our closing date was getting pushed back 4 weeks..yes, now we don't close til August and we are dying. BUT we get to save more money for things we need for the house. Anyways, Ben left, I was sad and lonely, then my parents left outta town as well. Leaving me the only person at home, I am not good by myself. So Friday I decided why not, I booked a flight and made my way to Vegas. The conference was at The Red Rock casino and we LOVED IT there. Sadly Ben worked all Saturday so I spent my time at the pool and sleeping. Saturday night we met up with Ben's best friend growing up, Jake, and his wife Kim. Ben was like the happiest guy in the world to see his best friend, it was cute. We aren't all that sure why we don't all live right be each other, we miss them already! It was a perfect mini getaway for me, and 14 hour work days getaway for Ben.
