Fun night with Marla!

The last time Marla and I had a girls night out was last November,so it was really good getting together one of my closest friends!We always have a very fun time-and she is very special to me-she is a great encourager and lifts me up when i need it most!!!
We first went out to eat,then shopping for a summer outfit,then went to her house to catch up!We got a hostess to take our picture and this hostess wanted in our picture-we didn't mind at all!!
So this is where the night gets really funny!!! We sit around and I am talking about cutting my bangs-I hear those famous last words,"Oh,I can cut your bangs,I have done that before!!!" So of course-what do I say,"COOL,lets do it!!!"---OK,flash back right now,when you were in high school and your best friend cuts your hair,perms it,or colors it-and it is a disaster(I know everybody has that memory!!!!)---OK-back to my story..........so we are in her bathroom and she gets the dull scissors out,combs my hair-all the while looking like she knows what she is doing--begins to carefully cut my hair--after she cuts,the hair drops to the floor and my bangs go way short--I turn to the mirror and we both started laughing soo hard--I am a cross of Urkle and Katy Perry! I am crying with my make-up running down my face because I am laughing so hard!! All the time Marla is saying "OH MY GOODNESS YOU ARE GOING TO HATE ME!!" I would never hate her-and even though it needs bit of a shaping--it really didnt turn out too bad!!!
So I took a picture of it and I'm really ok with it---thanks Marla for doing this-I got a haircut and wonderful memories I will never forget to boost!!!
