French Braids, Chicken Feet & Sledding

Blog french braid IMG_3138 
Family friend, Theresa, taught me how to french braid night before last so this was my first solo attempt the following morning (yesterday).  I think I did pretty good!

This morning, I undid the braids and Gwen had glorious waves in her hair!  Just look at it!

Okay, enough about hair.  Here she is modeling her Chicken Feet!  After lunch, we hit the slopes again for some sledding fun.  You can see a fun slideshow of those pictures below or, if that doesn't work, try here:  <click>

That is really good!@ I have known how to french braid for a long time, but I am really bad at it, I think your braid looks better than any braid I have done!
My girls will not keep clothes on either...it's hard gettign a nice picture when they are alweays in there undies or less! lol

Her hair is sooo pretty!!! You guys look like you are having a blast. Cant wait to see you guys when you get back. Let me know when you are back and ready to play. Have a happy new year!!

At least Gwen's hair is covering all the "important" parts! Good job on the french braids. It will come in really handy when it gets really hot. I look at Gwen's hair and know she has been home about 18 months longer than Claire. I can't wait for Claire's hair to be this long! It looks like it is about the same thickness and consistency as Gwen's so I am very eager!

LOL!!!!!!!

First of all that french braid looks great! I never could get the hang of that when Kalie was little. Looks like you guys are having a blast with the snow and that last picture of Gwen just cracks me up!! That is toooo funny!! Give the family my love and a happy and healthy new year to all of you!!

Great job! I never have mastered the art of the french braid. What's even more amazing to me are those who can do their own heads!

Great job on the French braid mommy! Very pretty when it was in and afterwards also.

Sledding fun! Check out that snow!

Model pic is a hoot!

Hilarious pics--so cute!

Laura, I've sent you two emails.
