new hair for a new year

Out with the old tresses, and in with the new...

We have already done some eventful things for 2010, including the new haircut I got on New Year's Day. I think this is the shortest that my hair has been since I was little. The only time I can remember shorter hair was when was six and I cut my hair myself (and then my hair was subsequently cut four other times to try and make me look presentable).

On the night of the 1st we went to a botanical garden near our house. Every year the garden is decorated with a bunch of Christmas lights, with most of them in the shape of different plants and flowers. It's fun to visit a garden in the middle of winter, even if the flowers aren't real.



How did you celebrate the New Year?

Love the super cute hair. I always wanted and meant to go to the botanical gardens while we were there but never made it. Glad to hear you did.

I love your new haircut. In fact, I love it so much that I sent the picture to the girl who cuts my hair and asked her if she can do something similar for me. I hope you don't mind...

Oh fun, Jenny! We'll be twins! :)

I don't mind at all. I'm sure you'll look cute with a similar cut.
