Vacation Checklist

We've been to Destin twice. The first time Madi was 3 and we went with friends. The evening before we left I took her to get a haircut and they totally botched her hair. Last year about a month before our family vacation I got the worst haircut of my life. So, yesterday I was in desperate need of a bang trim and thought, "We'll all get trims before vacation." Bad idea. We went to Fantastic Sams in Burleson where I have taken the girls for the past couple of years and they always do a fantastic job. So Gracie goes first and I tell the stylist "just a half inch off all the way around and a bang trim." A second stylist for Madi and I give her the same instructions. Third stylist for me, "bang trim, shape up my layers", so here we are all in a row with Madi next to me and Gracie just outside of eye shot on the other side of her. Madi's done first, looks great. I'm thinking, "she's sure taking a long time on Grace for such a simple little trim." Finally, Gracie appears in front of me to show off her new look. "Oh, sweetheart, you look...cute." She took half an inch off her bangs! It was hard for me to hide my disappointment. Poor baby, it looks as if she cut them herself.
One bad hair cut...check.
