So I happen to have a daughter who doesn't mind having long hair, but also doesn't mind having short hair, either. I know....just lucky:) Anyways, we were planning on getting her hair cut, and thought...hmmm. I wonder if we could go short enough and donate it to a good cause. So we checked it out and there is an organization called "Pantene Beautiful Lengths" that allows you to donate 8 inches (instead of the usual 10 that Locks of Love requires). So we actually ended up with 9 inches cut off, put it in a plastic baggie, and shipped it off with love to someone who will put that hair with others and make a wig for someone who has lost it due to cancer. Amanda felt really good about it, and feels like she has made a difference in someone else's life. It is amazing what little things we can do to make a difference in the world.
We took a picture of her with her hairdresser, Brittany, who also happens to be a good friend of ours.

Super Cute! She is so grown up! Sadie is growing her hair out right now to donate it too. Avery on the other hand just keeps cutting her hair herself!!!
p.s. I want to know where you go to get your blog templates?? I love this one. As well as the one you had before. What has happend to me!!! I am a total junkie!!!
If you go on my other friend Julie and Randy's, she has a place on the right hand side that says "Matie Kays". Click on that and it has different templates all the time that are really easy to do. Oh, and cute mommy picture:)
