all for a good cause.

Delanie and I have a whole lot of hair on our heads, "why?" you may ask.

For all of you who didn't know, Miss Lanie and myself, we have been growing out our hair so that we can donate it to Locks of Love.

(Locks of Love is a agency that makes wigs for people/children who have cancer. They make the wigs out of hair that people are willing to donate)

Here is the before: We are each about to cut off 10 inches of hair.

Lanie is so excited to finally cut her hair. She is nothing but smiles.
Lanie has wanted to do this for a long time and kept making sure that I was still going to cut mine.

I on the other hand, had mixed feelings. I know that I needed to cut my hair to help out others, but I really didn't want to cut that much hair off, I was starting to feel nervous, BUT Lanie made sure that I was to do it.

Look at all the extra hair that we couldn't donate, this was hair that was cut off in addition. Gross.

Wried creepy thought: when hair is on our head or even others heads for that matter, we can comb it, braid it, or even play with it, BUT the second it gets cut off...yuck! It becomes nasty and I don't want it near me.

Here is the after picture of both of us with our new hair cuts.

Sassy and Cute.
I have to be honest, I love Lanie's new cut, BUT I really love mine. I know, I know. I had mixed feelings, BUT I love that it now has a style to it. It is healthy and has an awesome shine again.

Plus, knowing that Lanie and I did this together was kinda a fun mommy/daughter experience, BUT the best thing about this whole thing, is knowing that Lanie and I were able to help others in need.

This was a great reminder that we need to be grateful for everything and remember to not take anything for granted...even the hair on our head, for there are some people who would give anything for some.

We did this all in the name of a good cause, but had a good time as well.

It was a win win day!
