What a Friday!

Sydney has been begging to get her ears pierced since she could talk!

My rule is you have to be 8 years old...

(MY Dad's rule was you could NEVER get your ears pierced!)

So tonight was the night!

We're not quite 8 but with dance competition season in 6 weeks we had to do it now so she can change these out for her dance competition earrings!

Sydney before...very nervous...holding her blankie and her ladybug pillow pet!

Sydney after!! So happy and excited!

She is so cute with her new little earrings!

We are very vigilant with cleaning!

She says it "completes her face!"
I love this girl!

(Sidenote...no I DID NOT get my ears pierced!)

Before I tell you the ending to this evening let me backtrack to earlier in the day...

Our fridge (only 6 yrs old!) died on Thursday...melted out everywhere...then came back to life!
But I decided not to chance it and just get a new one.

Here is Sydney modeling next to our new fridge...it is pretty cool! The kids love it!

Sydney was sad to see the old one go...it was from her "childhood" she said!

They took my old one back to the store and I was going to try and sell it for $100 or something or at least get $40 scrap metal money for it!

As we drove back to my work to get a vehicle after the earpiercing Sydney and I witnessed a guy stealing our old fridge out of the delivery box truck!

We staked him out til the police got him and this was the scene below!
6 cop cars surrounded him!

Sydney was so upset that someone would actually steal our fridge!

The cops made him take it back and put it in the truck and let him go!
It has been quite an adventurous day for us!
Sydney's ears are now pierced...that is the most important thing!
