Crazy Hair Day

Tuesday for Red Ribbon Week was Crazy Hair Day at school. This pic is of my sweetie before we began to make his crazy hair.
Next we spiked his hair up.

Then we began the color....or should I say colors.
We had the best time spraying his hair and fixing him up. Daddy took photos while we worked and worked to get it just right for school. Hayden is so much more brave than Harold and I ever would have been. All these colors would have just been TOO much for us but not this fella. He loved all the colors and actually picked them out himself. He was a little bummed that the gold and silver from previous years did not work but it all turned out good.
After all the creating, we had the photo taken of the finished product...you would think the kid could smile given the fact that Mom's hands were all different colors too!!
In addition to being crazy hair day, it was also the day to donate spare change to the Animal Shelter. Hayden and I scoured the house to find loose change everything. (Sorry Daddy if you start looking for your stash of quarters, they have been donated.........)This is our before school photo. Wouldn't he have been great as a punk rocker?This is our after school photo. The green has toned down a bit but you can still see the colors.
Now, what do you do with a kiddo when it is too cool to get out at the park and you did not get home from work until almost dark? Well, you put him on the treadmill....obviously. I started it up and put Hayden on it and told him that I would be back to get him off when he had walked long enough. You should have heard the whining after about 15 minutes. "Mom, Mom, Mom, can I get off now? Please MOM. The sweat is in my face MOM" HA I'm not sure what he is doing in this photo but you can see that he is "glistening" for sure.
Finally, he whipped off his shirt and walked a bit more. He slept like a log last night. There was not a peep made after lights went out until almost 6:45 this morning. We may have to try this treadmill exercise every evening.

Oh MY! I love this! That would have so been me on crazy hair day! What a great look for Hayden. Tell him to wear it like that for a baseball game next Spring. :) You did a great job, mom!
