Princesses and Ugly Stepsisters
I always wanted to be a tomboy when I was growing up--that's what was cool to all of my friends. But I know deep down inside I really wanted to be a princess. I loved Ariel (because she had red hair) and Jasmine (I guess I had a thing for the midriff). I hated Belle (still not sure why). Anyway--one Sunday I was having way too much trouble with my bangs, so just before church, I decided to hack them off (see photo). As I was straightening my hair with my hair clip--I felt a little closer to a princess. Maybe even related to one:

"A Day in the Life" or "Fire Drill!"
Robert was going away again, so I decided that we would have some fun without him. (Well, you know, not "without" him, per se, but "in his absence.")
We made sugar cookies. Enoch only destroyed one.

Halloween Night
Halloween night we decided we wanted to be tourists. So, we set out to explore tiger country (google said this was a tiger habitat--but we didn't see any there). So, we headed to Presque Isle, where there had been reports of tiger sightings earlier that week (see previous post). We were sure to bring our camera, binoculars, and a map of the area. We even put on bug repellant (okay, not really--but we did wear socks with our flip flops to keep a little warmer in our shorts--luckily it wasn't a cold night). It wasn't too long after dusk when we spotted them! Wild tigers in there natural habitat--and we were especially lucky to find a hunting party!!!

Ward Halloween Party
Can you tell what we went as? (The primary did a cupcake walk--I made the purple and green ones. Lacey mastered the most disgusting slime-green frosting :D).
Can you see what we are now? We had to give some people quite a few hints. Maybe this helps? Speaking of making purple and green things. . . thanks Karen for showing me how to make some awesome bows.

Ali Mae Needs. . .
Some days I feel so full; I don't think I really need anything--Today was one of those days. But just for kicks, I wanted to see what google thought I needed. . . you know, in case someone is trying to find me a Christmas gift ;D. (I just googled "Ali Mae Needs")
So, here are my top 5 "needs:"
Ali Mae "needs" My Space (with three kids in diapers. . . you bet!)
Ali Mae "needs" a Christo-centric missiology (don't we all [I have no idea what that's supposed to mean, but it sounds good to me]).
Ali mae "needs" her Rocky fix (last night Robert wanted to watch Rocky. . . or are we talking Rocky Road?)
Ali Mae "needs"social acceptance in school, and it helps if she wears what celebrities do (riiiiight--although from the look of the holes in my pants. . . ummm. . . maybe that isn't so far fetched).
Ali Mae "needs" Better Explaining – And Fast (Part of my interest in linguistics and editing is to become more eloquent)
Well, hope that helps with your gift lists. Now I just have to search what Robert needs ;D.
