60s Style!

Emma had Red Ribbon Week at her school last week. This is a week to raise drug awareness, and as part of the fun, they tag each day with its own theme for the kids to dress up. I.e. Monday-"Put a Lid on Drugs", and the kids get to wear their favorite hat. Tuesday-"Team up Against Drugs", and they wear their favorite team shirt. Wednesday was "60 Ways to Say No to Drugs", and they were to dress up in 60s style clothing. We brain stormed a bit and came up with some ideas, and I decided to straighten her hair to add to the look.
I may be regretting that decision! She Loved it! The child could not pass the bathroom without stopping to admire herself. Couldn't concentrate on brushing her teeth, would get distracted doing ANYthing, stopping to swish her long silky locks. It was strange to see her hair like that. She's had curls-lots of curls as a little one-since day 1! But she loved it, and we may do it again every now and then, just for fun. :)

That changes her looks completely!! I would have loved to have her long curly hair when I was younger. It's nice that she can have both!!
She's growing up so fast.

Love you all,
