Pictures, Pictures, Pictures

Ok, I know it's been FOREVER since I posted. I'm sorry. I'm just busy and blogging is one of the last things on my mind. I'll try to get better. But I did want to at least post a few pictures for everyone. I changed my look. I was getting so sick and tired of my hair. So I cut it off and dyed it. I left home one day with long blonde hair and came home with short red hair. That's right, I dyed my hair red! I'm so freakin excited. I've always loved red heads and always wanted to be one myself....and now I am! The pictures really don't do it justice. It look so amazing. It's actually more red than you see in the pictures. The coloring didn't take right the first time we tried it (which is when the pictures were taken). So I got it re-colored. My hair dresser is one of my new friends, so she did the second color for free. And the time (the cut, the color, and an eyebrow waxing) were super cheap. It's great to have connections!

So, as you can see, it's longer in the front and then stacked in the back. And it really is redder than this in actuality. Let me know what you think about my new look!

Other news, Mary came to visit me. Her and my dad drove up and spent a week here. It was great! I loved having Mary here. She got to meet all my friends and see the zoo and see the town and everything. I miss her really bad now though. I wish she hadn't had to leave! While she was here though, we were our typical crazy selves. It was great!

One of my friends here went on vacation for two weeks, so Mary and I went to pick her up from the airport. We were early and didn't want to sit at the airport and wait. So we decided to make a Wal-Mart run (I had a few legit things to pick up). While we were there we got this huge bag of mixed candy (I think it was like 6 pounds or something). It was so much fun!
You can kind of see how much more red my hair is in these two pictures.
I don't have time to go into my schedule stuff for this new semester. But I promise to find time at some point this week to write about it. This semester is going to be insanely busy though. It'll be a very long post, so prepare yourselves! I do want to leave you with a comforting thought. I'm making so many amazing friends here in Gville. I call them my family now. Cause that's what they are. I was so scared when I moved here cause I didn't know a single soul. Now I know so many people. I have a whole family here. It's amazing. I love them so much!! Words don't even begin to describe the relationship I have with these people or how much they do for me. I hope that's a comfort to some of you, knowing I'm in good hands here. So here's a few pictures of some of the amazing people in my life now. Enjoy! Love to all!

In the middle of the summer I took a tour of some of my women friends through the zoo. It was so much fun! Definitely by far the best tour I've ever had! It was a huge tour group. And this is only a small fraction of my new family! I'm so blessed to have such amazing women in my life! And such an amazing new family!
