Jack's Haircut

Grandpa Dave called to say that he was reading this blog and thought Jack needed a haircut!  He was right - and the day before he called we took Jack in for his second haircut in two years :)  We went to the shopping center that is a couple of blocks from our house, where there is a children's barber inside an amusement park.

Before: Playing on the rides while waiting for his turn with the barber

During: Jack say very nicely for his haircut

He was clearly the first blond to get his hair cut that day!

After: "Jack like haircut"

The next day we were surprised with another King-declared holiday!  This time the holiday was not announced until 2am on Saturday, so we got a phone call at 6am telling us school was cancelled!  We celebrated by having pancakes with Grandpa Dave's maple syrup.

No one quite knows why there was a holiday--just the King being nice--but no one was complaining!  It was kind of like having a snow day, but not having to make it up, and instead of being snowed in, having beautiful weather so you can spend the day at the pool....


Now we are just waiting for Grandma Nancy and Grandpa Steve to arrive, and planning our trip to Bangkok where we will all meet up with Alek and Ryan.
