LoTs of LoVe for LoCkS of LoVe!

Adah and Madelyn have been talking about cutting their hair short.

There was a young woman in our last ward that was diagnosed with a brain tumor around a year and a half ago (Hi "D.H."! We love you!). The girls ask about her often and when she had lost her hair during treatment, the girls loved that people donated hair so she would have a wig to wear.

So, when we talked about how long Adah and Madelyn's hair was, they wanted to donate it. So, off we went to a high class salon (Ok, it was Great Clips, but they were great!). They did the Locks of Love thing and gave the girls cute hair cuts!

When I went up to the counter to pay for the cuts, they said it was free because of the donation! Wow! I had no idea! I was prepared to pay for the cut and then pay to mail the hair! They did it all!

(don't worry, I did notice the little piece of Adah's hair that is longer, and it has been taken care of :/)

The girls loved doing it and on the way home talked about how good they felt doing this service. I told them it took a year to grow their hair this long, so we'll cut their hair again next July and they can donate again. ;)

Since I am blogging, here are a couple of pictures of our latest adventure...blueberry picking!

Here are our hard workers. We ended up with 6 buckets/34 lbs!

Here are our big blueberry eaters...er, pickers. They ate so much they got tired and needed a nap in the car while we finished up!

Mmmmm...blueberry pancakes with blueberry syrup!
