Mae's New Favorite Show

This is a guest post by my sweet Mae with a little help from a blog-blocked Mama.  22 days into NaBloPoMo and I'm running out of inspiration.  Enter an energetic 8 year old who's been home all day and drained me of all of my energy to blog.  Kids do that. 

"I have a new favorite TV show I love to watch on Friday nights. It's on after dinner, but before bedtime.  It stars 3 men acting funny and my favorite character is Curly.  It is in black and white."

Can you guess the show?

A Hair Raising Experience

First off, let's get one thing understood. This was not my idea. My kids know how I feel about Bump-its so when Grandma Dee asked Mae what she wanted for her Birthday, Mae conned Grandma Dee into buying a set because she knew I had no interest in buying her the unusual hair accessory.

Since acquiring Bump-its we have enacted a no bump-its at school rule (Our rule, not the school's.) so that leaves weekends and Holidays for my kids to heighten their hair. Saturday was our first round of family Thanksgiving so the girls of course wanted me to install these crazy things for them. Aaaaand since I already had the hair spray and teasing comb out, I decided to try one as well, you know just for fun. Mae used the regular Bump-it and Binny used the mini Bump-it, so I was left with the Hollywood Bump-it. Making me feel more ridiculous than Hollywood, I decided to take it out before dinner, but before I could do so, the girls insisted we all take a photo together with our big happy hair. All in the name of fun!
