Now that our little Peppermint has gotten bangs and a hair treatment – we are going to try something I have never done before, RIT dye. Getting started I inquired with 2 awesome customizers and asked about dying her hair. Both of them recommended RIT dye. So, I got this really pretty Royal Blue liquid dye. One of the great things about this hobby – so many people are willing to help ♥ Getting started I just followed (what I perceived) to be the correct directions on the bottle. I got a pot of water that I filled a little …

…but I actually love my husband. And this is never more obvious to me than the one time a month he leaves for his weekend Reserve Duty in Charleston. From the moment he leaves on Friday night, I am on edge missing him.   You would think after 6 years of marriage, I’d love the “me time” – and I do love cleaning up without his size 13 shoes in the way. And there’s something almost nostalgic about preparing a special meal on Sunday in the slow cooker for his return. But, from the moment he is away, until he …
