my red hair

I was supposed to be born a redhead.
My brother and both of my cousins on my mom's side are blonde. I'm not. My grandmother had red hair, so something got switched around, messed up or something.

Well, when I was around 15, my mom was touching up my grandma's hair for her and they had left over color....
I was hooked!

I think I have been every shade of red  imaginable --


but I think this was my favorite haircut and color. I wish I had a picture of  the back -- it was super cute and especially when my hair was blown out straight.
The cute boy was a friend
 that I worked with. His name is Per and he is from Sweden.

I was Red until I was pregnant with Kelly. I didn't live close to any of hairdresser friends and it was too much of a hassle to try and do it myself with keeping it off my scalp. Up until then, I was crazy about being Red. Wanted to be as bright as possible and worried about it fading --

Well you have know, when The Little Mermaid first came out, I LOVED it!
She was the first Disney Princess with
Red hair ~

I even had the soundtrack on tape and listened to it all the time. Three different people gave me the movie the day it came out on video.
Yes, video.



When Paige was little, her
movie to watch was Homeward Bound (over and over and over and over and over and over and over again)
DJ wasn't really into any one movie,
and Kelly, after a short Mulan  stint, now loves MY movie!

I HAVE the original cover! I remembered about it when I was searching for an Ariel picture to post and none of the covers had the castle in the background --
Thanks!
