The new "do"

Here's a picture taken on Saturday of me with the new hairdo. I stopped wearing head coverings around mid-October as my hair came back enough for me to feel comfortable going "au natural". My hair came back more gray than I anticipated. I knew I was grey, I just had no idea I was THAT gray! I've been colouring, high-lighting and low-lighting my hair for so long now, I really didn't know what my natural colour was. So, it turns out the new shade is "salt and pepper"!


This picture was taken on the occassion of my 40th birthday party. My birthday was actually last Thursday. Despite the upheaval and sadness of last week, we decided to hold the party anyways - and I'm so glad we did. I had a wonderful time.... I should as it was all MY friends there!















Here are some other pictures of the big event:

Kurtis with most of the balloons. The decorating committee (aka my mother-in-law, my brother-in-law and his girlfriend) went a bit balloon crazy, but the boys sure loved it!
