Several months ago I used a flat iron on my hair for the first time. (Actually, it was probably close to two years ago). I saw mom and Sara at Ladies Bible Study that morning and Sara complimented the style, but I told her to wait and see what Mom said, I KNEW mom would hate it! (I was laughing, I really don't care about my mother's opinion of my clothes/hair since we have VERY different taste!) Well, mom comes over, I asked if she liked my hair and she goes, "Uh, no, not really". Haha! I laughed and told Sara "I told you so" and thought it was funny.
Fast forward to this past Sunday. My cousin is staying with us for a few weeks and has an awesome hair straightener that I am in love with and threaten to hide so she can't take it back to school with her. I used it Sunday and while I didn't like that way I had styled my hair for church (my bangs were pulled back, not the best look for me but I didn't care) I pulled my hair into a ponytail after we got home and it was really cute. (I had used bobby pins on my bangs and had that bump thingy- it was quite fecthing if I say so myself!- Brittany even said I looked like Nastia Liukin, the gymnast who won the gold in the All Around for the US. I think that is a stretch, but I'll take the compliment :p) Mom and Dad came over for lunch and as we were sitting down to eat, she looks at me and says (using squinted eyes and a voice that you would use on a kid who obviously did something wrong but funny and you caught them but aren't really mad, you know?) "Did you use a straight iron on your hair today?" to which I responded "Yes" and her reply was, "I thought so, I've never seen your hair so straight". That was it. No "it looks nice", or anything like that. You should have seen the look on her face! It was priceless! She might as well have said, "I hate it!!!" It was so amusing to me, Brittany and I had a nice laugh after she left. Poor Mom. Too bad she has a daughter who wears her hair a way she can't stand. *Sigh* Heehee. She's just so readable and predictable and is a never-ending source of "entertainment" shall we say? I think I might do it again this week when we all go to Granite for Rachel's baptism. Wouldn't mom just love that!!! :p

Ha ha ha! I'll make sure I wear black (the color of death, according to Mom) on Sunday. She can hate your heair & my outfit. Is it wrong to torture her so? Nahhhh!
I've been rocking that Nastia look too- mostly because my bangs are grown out and I don't have time for a haircut! haha
