Madison's choir banquet was last night. She didn't get home until almost 11 and then she got up for seminary at 5. My poor, poor baby. Our entire household will breathe a collective sigh of relief when school gets out in a week and a half. Right now we are pretty much treading water.
My Maddie has tons of beautiful, curly hair. I think most of the time she is at peace with her curls, but there are moments when she bemoans their propensity to expand (particularly in a very humid climate). So, on the rare occasion when she straightens her hair, we all sit up and take notice. Rebecca took on the lengthy task last night. I was upstairs in the gameroom hanging up pictures and picking up, and I slowed down my work so that I could listen to the chatter. Madison was sitting on a chair in front of a mirror in Rebecca's room. Rebecca worked patiently, piece by piece, smoothing and re-smoothing long ringlets, and all the while telling about different people and teachers at her school. They were like two old ladies at a small-town hair salon dishing out the latest gossip. So cute.
Now if I can just teach Rebecca how to round-brush my hair we'll be all set.
She looks beautiful. Enjoy these days, they will shortly be gone. Seminary is over yippeeeeeeeeeeee!! Have a great week-end.

That story is so cute. She looks stunning..wow! The dress is adorable too. When I saw this pic on FB I couldn't figure out what was different until I finally realized her hair was straight! Can only imagine how much time and effort that took! My question is---did it hold in the humidity? Love you Maddie!

All three of your girls are absolutely beautiful naturally, but with the straight hair, eye make up, and clothes they are knockouts. They must have one or two "Judy Genes" in their DNA.
