We believe...in letters!

Having another 1st at our house this year. Alex has decided that she doesn't want to visit Santa. She has decided that a letter is the way to go. I am not surprised since she is constantly writing in her "journals." However, I am a little disappointed. I thought seeing Santa lasted a few more years. I had visions of the dress she would wear and everything. Oh well - guess it is just another example of my baby growing up.

BTW - this was going to be our Christmas card picture before I decided that I was sending New Year's cards. The "believe" is actually spray painted on a wall in Bricktown. I thought it was perfect for Christmas!

No major thrisis for this Thursday...aren't you glad that you don't have to read a rant today?

Thrisis Thursday

It has been a while since I have felt my last "thrisis."

With my birthday money, I got some hair extensions. I did this for two reasons...it made my hair a little longer and it added color to hide the *gray* without coloring. They lasted ONE week to the day before they started sliding out. Went back for repair work, she said it was common to "shed" some after having them put in. (they are attached by beads, not glue) One week later and it began again. So on Tuesday night I had Billie get the pliers and remove what were left. Money well spent, huh?

Last night I did a box color...it is so-so. Billie says you can't see the gray...that it looks blonde. I am sure that is true, but I KNOW IT IS THERE!

We are working on getting our Christmas decorations up also. I decided that since we never get any Christmas cards, I am going to send New Years cards this year. BUT only to those who send me a Christmas card. I always spend quite a bit of money and time doing them...and never get many in return. So, if you would like a card from the McGinnis Family...our address is:

Billie, Candace & Alexandra McGinnis
1918 Oakhollow Dr.
Norman, OK 73071

Blog ya later! (Aren't you thinking bitch, bitch, bitch right now?)
