Mackenzie's "new do"

So, Saturday afternoon/early evening I was working on report cards when I got a call from my friend up the street. Mackenzie was playing at their house with her friend Abraham. As soon as I said hello my friend Cara says, "I have something funny to tell you, but you might be really mad." Ok....I'm thinking maybe Kenzie had an accident on their carpet or broke something, but no, it was more drastic. She decided to trim Abraham's hair, some of his stuffed animals, and CUT her own hair! Cara said she went upstairs to check on them and there was a trail of blond hair. (Abraham is blond also but of course being a boy his cut isn't as obvious.)

So, here is a before picture. I just took this Friday afternoon. Notice how long Kenzie's hair is.

Now here is the new cut!



The rest of the story is that I rushed her over to my neighbor, Sarah who is a really fantastic, professional hair stylist. Her and her family were getting ready to go out for dinner and a movie but being the awesome friend that she is, she took the time to fix our little emergency. She had to go pretty short and layer it because both sides had been cut above the chin and there are actually a couple of chunks on the top of her head that are only about an inch long.

I told Bob the only choices were short or going with a mullet! We all decided short was the better option!

I think the short cut is growing on me, and Sarah did a great job cutting it into a cute style, but I do miss her long locks. :) I guess its only hair. It will grow back and it could have been worse!
