Life Isn't Measured by the Number of Breaths You Take, but by the Moments that Take Your Breath Away

Date Night with the Kiddies


I took my cutie kids on a date to the Barton Creek Mall. I had heard they just opened a Lego Store, and we certainly couldn't leave that stone unturned. Check out this awesomeness!

Uh huh, made completely out of Legos.



We made our own custom Lego people. Michael's, Elle's then Hunter's all nicely packaged for the trip home. I was surprised they all independently chose the same shirt and pants pieces. 


Now who would have thought JC Penney's could be such a hot date spot? We ran into this shelf of super cool knit hats and gloves. We certainly couldn't pass up a photo op like that.  






Now this is an innovative look - earmuffs AND a cap. That's maximizing the fashion statement and the warmth. Good work little diva Elle. 



Double hat action. Very nice son. Do you think there is any symbolism in him choosing a raccoon cap to go over a little monster cap? No?


Now we're just getting silly!



To finish the night off right, we deiced to get Elle's delicate flop of a hairdo trimmed into her dream do. Check out the play-by-play. 

First of all, look at this before shot. My poor ratty princess. If anyone EVER needed a haircut . . .


Time to wet down her wild frock.



Pinning up for the first cut.


AND . . . snip, snip, snip




She even got her hair styled. She was so very pleased and proud to get her hair cut like her big sister Huntie's.  Little Ellie couldn't stop smiling. 


direct quote: "I look like someone else!!!"



Thank you brave hairstylist Malory. You made a little three-year-old soul very happy indeed.

Elle said, "This is the haircut I always wanted!!"
