Not a Disastrous Haircut

My friend Jen started her job today at a salon. I was her first customer and this is my new haircut:

Christmas Tree and Disaster Haircut

First of all, Shannon and Lindsay got to me and so I talked to Brandon and we are now getting a Christmas tree! It will probably just be a Charlie Brown one but at least it is something. We also looked at the prices for ornaments, lights, and a tree stand and it isn't as expensive as we thought it would be. So there you go, I am not going to be a Bah-Humbug.

Anyways.....

For a while now Brandon has needed a haircut. For the past year we have had our friend Jen cut our hair but she has recently graduated from cosmetology school and she has a job but for some reason hasn't received her license yet. We wanted to just wait until she got it because we knew if we just asked her to come over she wouldn't let us pay and we feel like we should pay.

Anyways, Brandon does have a hair cutting set and the other day I jokingly said, "Oh I will just cut it!" He thought this was a great idea and convinced me I should try and if it goes wrong we would just call Jen.

Here are pictures of Brandon before the haircut. Just so readers are aware for some reason one side of his hair in the back grows quicker than the other. That is why it looks weird:

To make a long story short because I feel like I am writing I novel....I can NOT cut hair. This is what I did:

So we called Jen and asked her to come fix it. She laughed when she saw what I did which I don't mind because I thought it was funny. She then did the best she could at fixing it. I don't know if these pictures are really doing anything and really showing the difference between the disaster and how Jen fixed it but I promise there is a huge difference! Jen really made it look as good as it could:

Moral of the Story: Dana should never cut hair again. 

This Just In.....

We have been married for six months!!!!


That is all.

Early Christmas Gifts

Like I said in my last post the other day Brandon and I went to St. George. While we were down there we decided to splurge and buy ourselves early Christmas gifts. We decided we had the money for a couple of things we have wanted for a while and we actually wouldn't be breaking the bank in order to get our gifts. Brandon got an iPad and I got a Kindle. Yes, mine is not as cool but for me it is like having a personal library with no due dates because you can download a lot of books for free.

When we decided that we would count these as our gifts we decided there isn't much of a point of us getting a Christmas tree this year. Yes, trees aren't too expensive but we would need to get ornaments, a stand, and a skirt. It just doesn't really seem worth it for us. Instead we are being creative and there is of course a Christmas tree app on his iPad. We played with it and made a Christmas tree.

We are going to set this out on Christmas day and be nerds. Until then though....HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Sister Wilson

Warning: This post will probably only be interesting to my sisters and parents.

Yesterday Brandon and I went to St. George and we were walking when someone called, "Shannon!" This kind of confused me but since there weren't a lot of people by I looked around. This older woman who looked familiar was looking at me and started mumbling trying to remember something and then says, "Bell! Are you Shannon?" I told her I was actually Dana and then I asked who she was because she looked familiar she then told me she was Sister Wilson! We caught up for a minute and then we went our separate ways.

Honestly, I think the weirdest part of it is her thinking I looked like Shannon. I really don't think I look like any of my sisters.

A Giant Roll

I made rolls today and this is how one turned out:

Sorry I have nothing really interesting to say.
