Hair yesterday and hair today

So, for a while now, I've been thinking it'd be fun to examine my "hair trends" over the last little while. Just thinking back over the past couple of years, I feel like my hair has changed a lot. I had bangs, I cut my hair pretty short. It seemed like a lot of change.
But now that I've actually gone back and done the research (where research means scrolling through iPhoto), I'm a little disappointed.
There's definitely some change there, but not nearly enough.
In May 2011, my hair was mostly straight with my bangs blended into the rest of my hair.
In January 2012, I had thick, straight across bangs cut.
In May 2012, my bangs had pretty much grown out and I pinned them back with my mostly straight hair.
In July 2012, I had my hair cut into an angled bob.
But over the past year, my hair has looked pretty much the same. Growing out with some layers, side-swept bangs and some curl.
Who thinks it might be time for a change? I'm not quite sure because I love my hair long enough to wear in a ponytail. But there's certainly some thinking to do.

High five for Friday!

Geez, it's been forever since I've had a legitimate post up here, so why not make it a H54F! Here are some of my highlights from this week:

1. I'm on vacation! And by vacation, I mean I squeezed a couple of days away from work, but I'm only at home. No beach or other adventure for me just yet. But it might explain why I have time to write today!

2. I managed to somewhat successfully complete a tutorial from Kate at The Small Things Blog. Personally, I thought it looked fantastic, but I don't think my husband was that impressed. When I asked him if it looked like the picture from the tutorial, he responded: "Yes, it looks like a messy knot and yours looks like a messy knot."


3. My husband planted some oriental lilies in the flower bed in our front yard, and they are GORGEOUS! Of course, they're about bloomed out now, but this picture shows them at their beginning.



4. After showing you one lily, I'll show you another. Although this Lily doesn't seem the least bit impressed I wanted to take her picture. She's still super adorable, though!


5. I am traveling this afternoon to see my cousin, who seems more like a sister, and I'm so excited. It's been waaay too long.

Have a fabulous weekend, everyone! And don't forget to stop by the link up over at The Lauren Elizabeth Blog and say hey!
