The Great Debate – Eyebrow Edition

TO DYE OR NOT TO DYE? THAT IS THE QUESTION!

My friend, Jasmine, had been spending the last few months trying to convince me that I should dye my eye brows darker.  Everywhere we went, every magazine she looked at, every time we watched TV… she pointed out ALL the blondes who have dark eyebrows.

Caroline said NO to the darker eyebrows idea.  She thinks hair should match the eyebrows.  Natural blondes should have blonde eyebrows.  And what Caroline says (usually) goes.   I value both of these girls’ opinions!  I was very torn about the situation.

Here are my girls Gwen and Jules… One has blonde eyebrows and one has darker blonde/brown eyebrows.

Gwyneth was the only celebrity we found that had blonde eyebrows!

They are both so beautiful!

I was so nervous to try this out but I finally gave in and DYED my eyebrows!  Here I am before and after…

I’m still not convinced one way or the other!

Does anyone have strong opinions (like my friend Jasmine) one way or the other?

OR

Do you dye your eyebrows?

OR

Have you ever tried any beauty treatments that you were nervous to try or went horribly wrong?

I would love to know!

All I know is I’m glad I didn’t end up looking like this…

Pondering…

I stumbled across this quote, and it really made me stop and think.

I might have to do just that… Watch out, World!

A Beach Picnic

Our parents have been out of town for a couple days to celebrate a wedding of their friend’s son. So that means that us kiddos get to spend lots of time together! And to make things even more exciting…Emily’s friends from high school, Lauren and her husband Nathan, came to visit all the way from Australia!! We have loved having them around.

Anyway, the other night, we decided to have a beach picnic! We packed up our cars with lots of food, beach chairs, towels, and some of the best company and headed out to the beach.

We had lots of fun spending time with our family and friends, catching up with Lauren and Nathan and reminiscing about our times in Australia (we even broke out in to the Australian National Anthem…which, according to our Aussie friends, sounds quite different when sung in an American accent!), and enjoying a beautiful Nantucket sunset!
