What a whirlwind of a month. Or has it been more? I have lost count. I can't believe it's already almost the end of another school year. It's mothers day this weekend and I am forever grateful for a mother who helped me learn and grow and to be who I am now. I only hope that someday I can be as awesome as she is. I wanted to share some photos of what's been happening around here lately. </div>

Again. It's been a busy Christmas season. I was in mad woman mode to get all I could done before the baby was born. And I am happy to report (even if it is late) that I did get it all done. And not a minute too soon since I was putting up my christmas tree 2 days before and wrapping presents the day before she was born, 2 weeks early!! Then came Christmas all too fast and it all feels rather hazy and foggy. However, that could largely be due to sleep deprivation. ;) now quick or I may never publish this post (it has taken me a few days to publish it already..don't ask) on to the pics:<br><br></p></p><p class='bloggerplus_text_section' align='left' style='clear:both;'><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSg9rQUd-xU8yGaZS8nUFzcHQmboKM6BXki5cvfUOYjxPnstBlqAdsOJtSGu1ZOCSnb0Xy7Us_6fPJyQXNbIgx3lbeiTeFiPr1kkrqaoaXAufLOqT2W5eLy3VYrwhg479roVSb7VUapg/s640/blogger-image-818383378.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSg9rQUd-xU8yGaZS8nUFzcHQmboKM6BXki5cvfUOYjxPnstBlqAdsOJtSGu1ZOCSnb0Xy7Us_6fPJyQXNbIgx3lbeiTeFiPr1kkrqaoaXAufLOqT2W5eLy3VYrwhg479roVSb7VUapg/s640/blogger-image-818383378.jpg"></a></div><br>The girls got an easel for Christmas!</p><p class='bloggerplus_image_section'><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' align='center' style='clear:both;'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmWBema7JGQld-GpzhGAixsvPafvwGdd3Y11ttREE4WNC23mWyiYMVb_LYGaAlE6sKxXEuHyYCKMreiPtp_YnrFT_pF_pR17JnYHpeTL_VbiizGC63o0XL3hEFgxuD6H5xweL_Bo9geQ/'></div></p><p class='bloggerplus_image_section'><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' align='center' style='clear:both;'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMc8AXbV4Y7LG5gheUz2XLX9ZgUgnUSGWlDo_NQIngm_FAW6tVMFMBkT1AaNu4hzigUuSuGJX7hcBCm9pn4ri4fVCk3DQuaVs2t7NeN7KKfqojMfK6voIB4D-YwQIA_m7j8XsET3lBMw/'></div></p><p class='bloggerplus_image_section'><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' align='center' style='clear:both;'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhqBigAM2tRM8cFEUvhYMgJgSgXYKf70rrws4k67taWx7Nx037396YgVGgSnfBuJxRzZWMwPIriqPdrM5mXoQWn_iX_4sX8fWKRptzGUnCrsyqvkWYBEZUR0YslqEIcp0aukLCcWtO8zQ/'></div></p><p class='bloggerplus_image_section'><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' align='center' style='clear:both;'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqa2bwNdM0yH0C4OHiPztVcl9mufVtcFJwczZDB-DIIkekzmgUByXBOJehSTWAuPFakbnQFu_NMucwBMenEKXUPlOkKB34bZ6rGd-LWTeRCpQo4O2yYtW_ErNwuZBngaZDv6uafRHjlQ/'></div></p><p class='bloggerplus_image_section'><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' align='center' style='clear:both;'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhujhNLR7Zin87FuKWQPVCgo5UlUTQjKflbojwgvfhHhpKKU_fABCnHKKHUjuXvtYeCrkcUMEBrt7FwjAl5208dV_f8DZWRSiuAk2UAUs7z4fPYbYfRfYNzxxIOq644Vd2mHRp-DqhDCg/'></div></p><p class='bloggerplus_text_section' align='center' style='clear:both;'>New arrival: Kate Denise Hellewell<br>Born: November 23, 2011 at 2:55pm<br>Weighing: 6lbs 10oz and 18 inches </p><p class='bloggerplus_image_section'><div class='bloggerplus_image_section' align='center' style='clear:both;'><img src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiucidYO6__j-naJu3gUd7WMNg22P_EzrSmuo0AUDPMp8QCed2nx0kTJwbrJYfvG9I9Vf1WQCPBDy79-weEUrhjBKB1PlFCFdjxQhW69stuGqyDeer9orEVo1whuX1v8NEIdnlwdbIh0g/'></div></p><p class='bloggerplus_text_section' align='center' style='clear:both;'>Hanging out with aunt Jamie!

Sometimes I seriously wonder if I fell asleep and woke up 2 weeks later. Its that bad. Slow down!! Well this summer has been fun and filled. My sister and brother came home from college at the end of July and we have been spending as much time with them as we can. I had my ultrasound during July and found out we are having a....SURPRISE. :) Actually that's totally my fault because I decided I wanted to try going the whole time without knowing what we were having. Call me crazy.. Its ok, several have. Even I would have a few years ago. But for some reason I wanted a surprise and you know what? Its really quite exciting. next we went to Idaho Falls to visit Eric's family. It was a long trip down and back home, but it sure was fun to visit family and play LOTS of games! :) Lastly, Shanna started preschool. I have mixed feeling about this. Shes my baby. I can't believe it. She really is enjoying it though!

It was so much fun. Nice warm weather, beaches, pools, lots of fun activities and of course lots of spanish and good mexican food. Every day was packed with lots of activities. Monday was hanging out at the beach and parasailing, oh and I did get stung by a jellyfish. Tuesday was boat rides, snorkeling, and kayaking. Wednesday was zip lining. Thursday was deep sea fishing, Friday was playing on the beach and relaxing, and Saturday was packing and flying home. What I loved most was going outside no matter the time and feeling warm and the breeze was warm. It was just something I was really missing since summer hasn't really come to Washington yet. We were really glad that Eric spoke spanish because we were able to communicate and on Sunday when we went to church Eric translated it for us every now and then so we could get the gist of what was being said. Even though the chapel floors were tile and there were no pews, and everything being said from the pulpit was spanish, it was definitely the same church I go to here in Washington. That's what I love about the gospel. No matter where you go, the spirit is still the same, and the principles taught are still the same. It was a neat experience. We really enjoyed our time there and I have a bazillion pictures to show you, hope it's not too many! I could have added millions more. <br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/show_photo.php?p=11/07/01/3882.jpg'><img src='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/photos/11/07/01/s_3882.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /> The view from our patio.<br /><br /><center><a href='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/show_photo.php?p=11/07/01/3883.jpg'><img src='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/photos/11/07/01/s_3883.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /><br /><center><a href='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/show_photo.php?p=11/07/01/3884.jpg'><img src='http://photo.blogpressapp.com/photos/11/07/01/s_3884.jpg' border='0' width='281' height='210' style='margin:5px'></a></center><br /><br /> That's me parasailing!!

I really enjoy it! I just don't know where the time goes. What have we been up to? Well, the girls are growing and loving life. They have started to play together, which has been so funny to watch! I posted a video of it at the end of this post, so watch it if you have time to! Lindey still doesn't say much other than hi. But she does know quite a few signs and lately has been babbling and moving her lips the way she sees us move our lips when we talk. I think shes close! Shanna can write her name, which she is very proud of! :) She started gymnastics at the beginning of this month and has really loved it! Eric has been doing a few things around the house and I for some reason haven't mentioned yet that I started working at a rehabilitation facility as a certified nursing assistant at the beginning of October. I work Tuesday and Wednesday evenings from 2:30 to 11 and Eric comes home from work at 2 on those days and watches the girls. I am really liking it, but there you have it..The reason I have been so non existent in the blogging world as of late. Now enough jabbering! :) Here are a few pics...<br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRIlVrzuhgxHlsmFHZ0Wtcx8l-crA1iwZCvXraspfhVGpLiN4tZ0zIRtxN3bR1oZNS7pO5-53Bj8ep7tQ815I03o1HlQdaGEVPtRkIjIm80kJQ33KgU6HfDq1xVokGpqvlJtZEGNQBtA/s1600/DSC02110.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhRIlVrzuhgxHlsmFHZ0Wtcx8l-crA1iwZCvXraspfhVGpLiN4tZ0zIRtxN3bR1oZNS7pO5-53Bj8ep7tQ815I03o1HlQdaGEVPtRkIjIm80kJQ33KgU6HfDq1xVokGpqvlJtZEGNQBtA/s320/DSC02110.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5573315154428812914" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> The girls were playing dress up.

Anyway, she really understood the Santa Claus idea and what to do with presents and the excitement that lit up her face was really worth it all! The day after Christmas we went to Ocean Shores with my parents, grandparents and my brothers, sister and sister in law. We did it as one last big fun trip before Bryce and Jamie went back to BYU Idaho for the next 2 semesters..We sure are going to miss them! It was a TON of fun at the beach, however! We took some family photos as well thanks to my grandpa!

I have been having a ton of fun with my girls! Also extremely time consuming... I admire those people out there who have 2 kids and can do things around the house and go to the grocery store (I attempted the grocery store just yesterday and let me tell you, I won't be doing that alone again any time soon!!) Also those women who can just function. I feel like I am barely keeping my head above water!! We really are blessed to have such sweet girls in our home though! They sure bring in a wonderful spirit!<br /></div>Carrissa Hellewellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827315834173360614noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7606489459720793985.post-47768370886165841622009-11-20T16:08:00.000-08:002009-11-20T16:22:05.425-08:00Sisters...<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8AR0t96t-UGvJpks-2L-bEkl3yPxlarblQPmC5kUG-EAh-AVNYddlF6L2NNsXO3Dxk_jRLJaPrhZCQ3Txy_B1QwToxSz6NVuCUALGB6DQqo1G8DpiG4KezHPb9C9QmgXRChj8zmzNUg/s1600/DSC01332.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8AR0t96t-UGvJpks-2L-bEkl3yPxlarblQPmC5kUG-EAh-AVNYddlF6L2NNsXO3Dxk_jRLJaPrhZCQ3Txy_B1QwToxSz6NVuCUALGB6DQqo1G8DpiG4KezHPb9C9QmgXRChj8zmzNUg/s320/DSC01332.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5406343080875358578" border="0" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKyc8wLDQhg550Kzjohogpkc3uuN53-g8NqCUUag8l-uDLdDHUJO9Ye_yJthx2MC30DAdbxjtVkE1Ro1eo_FDm90jUZLEPvhj_HHm6A5o569hIRnRyavL_JQs3sJCqjCEA_VX5o4jXjg/s1600/DSC01330.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKyc8wLDQhg550Kzjohogpkc3uuN53-g8NqCUUag8l-uDLdDHUJO9Ye_yJthx2MC30DAdbxjtVkE1Ro1eo_FDm90jUZLEPvhj_HHm6A5o569hIRnRyavL_JQs3sJCqjCEA_VX5o4jXjg/s320/DSC01330.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5406343072364396434" border="0" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCQhoOJs50oIbEf1QfwG2aUqUjvcmrHVejblYcp6hUCurDkYT7r8nnIXyvA65gzP_9XEWdn4u6EMq9_HTj_HJoGdzhrZPkNG79DAf3JE-Mi_LUTQK9rKbzvPablHghx43CIiVjjDUOjw/s1600/DSC01319.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCQhoOJs50oIbEf1QfwG2aUqUjvcmrHVejblYcp6hUCurDkYT7r8nnIXyvA65gzP_9XEWdn4u6EMq9_HTj_HJoGdzhrZPkNG79DAf3JE-Mi_LUTQK9rKbzvPablHghx43CIiVjjDUOjw/s320/DSC01319.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5406343065206371650" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh49qqPH6SZjFczc4XZY7UXTCR3jZF0DQ4SsI0prBPIf2C_Sm_R7Uk5vhlSr2GvJfpPYWcUgbcYd_qmTUGLjCpG2MLJNQqaNswHMqFqVcs9tiHca2iiJEQNH4JgEPmrm6ka8TyuapHXZA/s1600/DSC01318.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh49qqPH6SZjFczc4XZY7UXTCR3jZF0DQ4SsI0prBPIf2C_Sm_R7Uk5vhlSr2GvJfpPYWcUgbcYd_qmTUGLjCpG2MLJNQqaNswHMqFqVcs9tiHca2iiJEQNH4JgEPmrm6ka8TyuapHXZA/s320/DSC01318.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5406343088365822386" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">Shanna just adores her baby sister...Its always, "Can I hold my baby?" and "Oh no mommy, shes crying, you better feed her!" Also theres, "I just really really love her!" "Look, shes open her eyes!" "Hi baby Lindey, you are so very, really cute!" (this is said in a baby voice) It always cracks me up when she uses a "baby voice" when she has such a high pitched voice already...haha, so cute! She is ALWAYS in her baby sister's face smothering her and loving her and hugging her and...yep if the baby is around its all about her...I am really glad shes taken a liking to Lindey; especially since she has been an only child for almost 3 years with the attention totally on her and now that the attention isn't totally on her, she seems to be doing ok with it! What a relief! It really worried me.<br /></div>Carrissa Hellewellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827315834173360614noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7606489459720793985.post-1094014357533035562009-11-02T22:35:00.000-08:002009-11-02T22:49:27.558-08:00Happy Halloween...<div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEic0wir5QDX3ynZrRmkGGcAj6EjoY1wDmWHJa8ESvwzFVSoJM3a9EUgTnoGLH_qLdgpHik1J18wIU4uJtSmrZ6Dyk9tO4AoCO5_dgggqFVL5vgmdxc3I6xn11sFubowHjzPx2H0WjF8yA/s1600-h/photo3.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEic0wir5QDX3ynZrRmkGGcAj6EjoY1wDmWHJa8ESvwzFVSoJM3a9EUgTnoGLH_qLdgpHik1J18wIU4uJtSmrZ6Dyk9tO4AoCO5_dgggqFVL5vgmdxc3I6xn11sFubowHjzPx2H0WjF8yA/s320/photo3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399763447351919554" border="0" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />Shanna was SO cute as a cow...We had to get her front side..<br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7XtAWgqdWZSCqhdrz1uFMyZMWvQtmIBJF2YW7DeVXUY8IVCI42RfpyylUDqznR2xG1JGfSfgWoRXY16Mdp7Efrks1PrefbmspSB4GcA5z_qEhC_uC-WH3WSYYvFvSCGaRaPh9UCWdzQ/s1600-h/photo4.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7XtAWgqdWZSCqhdrz1uFMyZMWvQtmIBJF2YW7DeVXUY8IVCI42RfpyylUDqznR2xG1JGfSfgWoRXY16Mdp7Efrks1PrefbmspSB4GcA5z_qEhC_uC-WH3WSYYvFvSCGaRaPh9UCWdzQ/s320/photo4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5399763451735954290" border="0" /></a><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />...And her backside.

Little Lindey Dawn is here! She arrived yesterday (Monday) at 4:09 pm. She weighed in at 6lbs 90z. She is 19 inches long and has tons and tons of dark hair! I arrived at the hospital at 11 am to be induced and they started me on pitocin at 12:40ish. My water was broken at 2 or 2:30ish and I had my epidural at 3. At that time I was dialated to a 3. A half an hour later I was dialated to an 8!! I was SO not prepared for that...Shanna took 13 hours! And then 5 minutes after that I was a 10 and the doctor had to run down the hall to get there in time to have me push 4 times and out she came! Recovery is defintiely going to be a ton easier this time and I am grateful for that! Everything is looking fabulous and we are very excited to welcome our new addition to the family. Tell you more about how Shanna is adjusting in later posts! Meanwhile, here are a few pics from yesterday!<br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpPa_YHTo7nvnPJCnddQZbYlWUXhQXYncZd9xX_cDD3-_20Ic_QdT3Jp9y3o_wS8w_eF7xQNWCbRqmdgXbsIuf69E837Cja0-dCDIgfK74TYLyP1PqXXmjXwUARSWXLpl2I55mSZC1lw/s1600-h/photo+%283%29.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 206px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpPa_YHTo7nvnPJCnddQZbYlWUXhQXYncZd9xX_cDD3-_20Ic_QdT3Jp9y3o_wS8w_eF7xQNWCbRqmdgXbsIuf69E837Cja0-dCDIgfK74TYLyP1PqXXmjXwUARSWXLpl2I55mSZC1lw/s320/photo+%283%29.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394797427618214162" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXFOXH7PXjvtusS0XcqS3dIkoJLIiwlkkQg8D03MF_H9aFt4cLwyE1GR1_Uhkln1A-VcQVZOQqg1WxIRM1vKxqPRA8vj0Bd-8gNOkAXZpf-L0nIlCAVg1jh-NZFsWcaxla5WcieKxylA/s1600-h/photo+%287%29.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXFOXH7PXjvtusS0XcqS3dIkoJLIiwlkkQg8D03MF_H9aFt4cLwyE1GR1_Uhkln1A-VcQVZOQqg1WxIRM1vKxqPRA8vj0Bd-8gNOkAXZpf-L0nIlCAVg1jh-NZFsWcaxla5WcieKxylA/s320/photo+%287%29.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394797445894672018" border="0" /></a><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2CK08fzHPpl7LX3x_E6BmgFVKBJTJMdpCs0QZ8gPwE3fwVXAlAQiKwtwjWYkUqfD9WSazJucAtXQUoqXcv4rFR8s8dqx1-0dsOQH_wmvRnq6WGAv7o37Cp40coo2b-l0zeYYK_g8LxA/s1600-h/photo+%285%29.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2CK08fzHPpl7LX3x_E6BmgFVKBJTJMdpCs0QZ8gPwE3fwVXAlAQiKwtwjWYkUqfD9WSazJucAtXQUoqXcv4rFR8s8dqx1-0dsOQH_wmvRnq6WGAv7o37Cp40coo2b-l0zeYYK_g8LxA/s320/photo+%285%29.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5394797435130479650" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Lindey's first bath.<br /></div>Carrissa Hellewellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827315834173360614noreply@blogger.com14tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7606489459720793985.post-21951768970479040902009-09-24T11:25:00.000-07:002009-09-24T11:30:26.240-07:00Spontaneous...good or bad?So sometimes I can be a little spontaneous...Well, ok, most of the time I tend to be. So I decided one night that since Shanna's bangs were at her chin, I would cut the rest of her hair to match it. Then it would be even all the way around. When I started chopping away, I got scared and couldn't believe how much hair was landing in my lap and in my hands. But since I had already started, I couldn't just stop half way through, so I kept going. Its taken some getting used to, but maybe I am partial, I think shes super cute!! :)<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuO8u7kJXey3VuImJNESebjdr-K9j7T51n7rnHNsaqrBoNC_s3RnyiBsuqDl32VU0Q8DeoKFpE4CgeC4H0ThtjjlIVx6gJx8-e45TbOGMKDAhW7I93r1aU6ZC4YKefTGHKpkDJl6s0xg/s1600-h/new+haircut.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuO8u7kJXey3VuImJNESebjdr-K9j7T51n7rnHNsaqrBoNC_s3RnyiBsuqDl32VU0Q8DeoKFpE4CgeC4H0ThtjjlIVx6gJx8-e45TbOGMKDAhW7I93r1aU6ZC4YKefTGHKpkDJl6s0xg/s320/new+haircut.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5385102825415051410" border="0" /></a><br /></div>Carrissa Hellewellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09827315834173360614noreply@blogger.com9
