sooo... the weekend.

Well we had a wonderful weekend.

Saturday - I got to spend time with my bff's Ellie (my sis) and Jess (my sista from another motha)
anyway.. we went to get our hair cut - well Ellie didn't get a haircut because she had already cut her hair earlier in the week, but Jess and I did. Can I just say that although Jessica has super curly, kinky, tight curly hair, it is not a science to cut her hair. It is however a task that not everyone is willing to take on.
My sister's hairstylist had NO PROBLEM tackling the ever popular head of hair that has forever been ingraved in our heads as difficult. So with a snip here and a snip there (using a razor blade) Thu- the stylist, was done and Jessica's hair was healthier, shorter and all around more managable than before. She (Jess) could not get over how short it was and kept talking about it. I have always liked short hair, so I don't see what the problem is - side note: it still hits her bra line... so technically it's not short.. but whatev, it's short to her. Her hair was damaged and needed the cut. In anycase, she looks fabulous and I like it.

Mine was already short to begin with, but had lost its look, so she snipped and snipped and then she was done. (see before's/after's on the last post) We got there at 11:20 am and after both cuts and my blowdry, we were outta there at 12:30... PHEW.. that was quick!

So we head over to Red Robin for some grub. I had not been there before and really liked it. It's a little pricier than most, but stil yummy!

After, I headed over to Tiffany's with Jess and her short hair to pick up a bracelet*swoon* that her beau gave her about a month ago. Then she accompanied me to pick up a cake from Sam's for a birthday party that hubby and I were going to later. - so after we picked up the cake, Jess went her way and I went mine.

I went straight home to take a quick nap and then get ready for the party. Hubby was already ready so all I had to do was shower, fix my hair and makeup and we were out! So what is this party you ask? Well a little girl from our church had a birthday but no one knew it so last weekend when they were anouncing the birthdays, her name was not announced. So she went up to the Pastor after the service and told him that it was her birthday too but they forgot to announce it. He was soo touched by this spirited little girl that he did not want her to go on through life thinking that she had been forgotten. So he got a bunch of people from church to donate time, money, and food to do a birthday party (hence why I picked up the cake). So we all got together and threw a surprise birthday party for her. It was such a blessing to be a part of that and to show this little girl how much we really do care for her. It was great!

Then after the party, we hooked up with Jess & Joey for dinner at Kim Son! - well really hubby and I had already eaten at the party, so we just ate dessert.. yum!

Sunday was spent being bummy (as hubby calls it) and then going to church. Much fun!

I hope that you get blessed this week with a bunch of RAK (Random Acts Of Kindness)! :)
