Spring Break for Mommy

Charity and I got to sneak away for a fun weekend together in sunny St. George. We are both in love with the sunny city and are always plotting how we are going to move there together some day. With or without Mike and Troy. Just kidding. Although we actually did propose the idea once. It wasn't received very well.

Funny story:When I lived in St. George I had a friend, Bart, who lived in the same apartment complex. Occasionally he would have BBQ's at his mom's vacation home. Years later when I became friends with Charity we put it together that Bart was her Uncle. (I know it is confusing. He is much younger than his siblings and she is the oldest in her family so they are a year apart.) Anyway, the place I stayed this weekend was the SAME place I used to hang out over 10 years ago!!! I am going to have to find some of the old pics. It was funny how familiar the place was and how much I remembered it. I still keep in touch with Bart but I never thought his niece would end up being one of my best friends! Small world. Come to think of it, I think I probably did gymnastics on the lawn back then too. My how I have matured. :)

A DAY AT THE SALON

Everything has been so crazy the last few weeks that certain things have been neglected. One of those things was my sons' hair. We finally drove them down to Capelli's to have Charity cut it. While we were there, Mike got some sexy highlights for fun. I feel bad for the salon because we were there for a couple of hours and our boys were all over the place.
A cute girl named Brandy cut Tracy's hair and Tracy wasted no time playing up the dramatics. He kept complaining about how bad his hair was itching after the haircut that she gave him a good rinse. We laugh because Charity has cut his hair so many times he knows she won't give in, but this girl totally pampered him and he loved every minute of it.
Everett didn't complain about itching, but he also didn't want to stay in the chair. Char'd ended up chasing him around the salon trying to get the final touches.

Oakley came to visit Tracy and that is when the real fun began. These pedicure stools became their "scooters" while Everett chilled under the dryer.
