My hair is this bizarre and completely unnatural deep reddish purple. I decided to dye it because I noticed a grey hair wanted a new color and it didn’t come out like the picture on the box. I went with ‘Spicy Auburn Brown’ since it looked just like my natural color, with slight hints of red. 
I’m so spicy.
Side note- I totally need better screen capture software. I first tried to right click and save the image, but it was doing that thing where it blows up to show detail when you scroll over it. So then I did a screen cap, but had issues getting it to crop down to just the section of hair color.
Aaron didn’t even notice my hair until Lili randomly asked me why I picked the color. Men are so observant.
Speaking of men- if you mentioned grills to any of the males in your family, would they think of: 
In other news, school starts this week. My girls will be attending a different school than before due to the fact we moved on base. Lili’s a little wary, so I told her if she hates it, she can go back to the old school next year, but she’s got to do a full year. I’m sure she’ll be fine though.
They’ll be walking instead of taking the bus this year, so they were trying to convince me to buy them the backpacks with wheels. But then we got their supply lists and it specifically said no wheeled backpacks. The list also requested solid folders/notebooks/etc. No patterns or characters. The girls were a little bummed, however I like this policy. Instead of paying $2 for the Justin Bieber folder that Lili wanted, I paid $.17 for a solid purple one. I ended up paying half of what supplies cost me last year. Score!

I was looking for a photo and came across this one that B. took while I was in NY of my hair before the dye. Ryan was stealing my coffee, as usual. I may or may not have a slight addiction to Dunkin' Donuts iced coffee. Sometimes when I get one, I buy the boys their old fashioned donuts, so now every time I go through the drive thru, the boys yell 'YAY!' and clap.
