A funny thing happened...

So as I had mentioned before I am trying to honor the hair appointments I made for the year. I just don't think it is fair to to my hair dresser to just quit on him cold turkey. I really like Will so I'm just going to make it until the end of the year.

But anyway, as you can see from my last post, I went and got a flat iron yesterday at the salon and the funny thing is I feel weird. I'm not loving the way I look. After 3 weeks of curliness I'm not loving the straight look. If you had told me this a year ago I would have said you were crazy.  So I think I have 5 more appointments to go. I couldn't be happier with this transformation

Best!

A Magical Vacation!

...and this is why I didn't post sooner. After my work trip to New Orleans we packed up the family and went to Disney World! Most people would say it was too soon for a family trip there but we are not most people. We had a wonderful, or should I say magical, time at Disney.

"it's a small world"

Yo Ho Yo Ho!

We're kinda silly

If you are ever planning a trip there October is the time to go. We did Halloween at the Magic Kingdom, bopped over to Universal to see Harry Potter (and get my fill of butterbear!!), and participated in the food and wine festival at Epcot. And as an added bonus scored the free meal plan. That alone made the the trip. We ate at sit down dinners in "France", Teppanyaki in "Japan", awesome sea food dinner at the living seas, tried foods from around the world as our snacks, and the list goes on. My son had a great time going on all the rides and although he may not remember this later I will. The look on his face when we went on "its a small world" made the whole thing worth it. Disney was great for little ones there were a lot of rides that he could go on with us. 

So now, back to business right? How was the hair?? That's what this blog is about, right? Let me tell you, it was wonderful to be so carefree in Florida. Normally all the mist machines and water rides would be giving me anxiety but I was stress free. And that's how a vacation is supposed to be! And if I do say so myself , I looked good. I got compliments too!! One from some random guy at the Food and Wine festival. He said my hair was really pretty and he kept looking at it. I think what struck me about the comment was that it was from a stranger. I know that's silly but he didn't have to say anything. I spent most of the week in twist outs. I was rained on once but that didn't stop the fun. Just afro puffed it that day :) My only issue was with dealing with how dry I felt my hair got in the hotel at night. I remedied that by twisting my hair at night. I came across the same problem in the hotel at New Orleans the week before. I'm not sweating it but it may be something to think about if you're staying in hotel. I wore my satin cap but I was still pretty dry.

Halloween at the Magic Kingdom!

Breakfast with Tigger :)

New Orleans : Part Deux!

Soooo..... I'm a bit late with this post. Life has been a bit busy after I got back from NOLA.  My trip was wonderful! I will definitely be back and bring the fam with me. I fell in love with the Muffeletta at Central Grocer and had my fill at Coops. I also enjoyed Frenchman Street. While on Frenchman I saw Eudora and Deep Soul play at Mojito's. They were great to listen to and let me tell you the lead singer's hair was fierce. I'll be striving for that :)
I went on a swamp tour and my guide caught a alligator. Ahhh New Orleans enchanted me and I'll be back!

Cheers!
