I’ve been doing some searching lately looking for ideas to do with Hailey’s hair.  She has a Cinderella dress and wants her hair fixed like Cinderella.  So I’ve been looking around on the Internet for hair-do ideas.  I had no idea there were so many blogs about hair styles and ideas for doing little girls hair.  I have found a few different ideas and have been trying them out in her hair.  Since it’s all practice it takes me a little while to do the actual style.  Since she’s only 2 1/2 she doesn’t really like to hold still very long.  But if I give her something to play with in the sink I am usually able to finish doing her hair.

You know me- I am always on the lookout for a fun contest or giveaway.  And I found a great one today!  How would you like to win a vacation to Singapore AND passes to the 2009 Formula 1 SingTel Singapore Grand Prix?  If that sounds like something that you would enjoy then you’ll be happy to know that three lucky people will be winning that prize.

The Singapore F1 Season Video Contest – “City of the Night” is the way for you to get a chance at the prize package.  Make a video about why the season is more than just a race to you.  Then submit your video for a chance to win.  There will be a panel of three judges.  They will judge the videos based on creativity, effectively getting the message across and how popular it is on YouTube.  The winners will be decided during September 1st – 5th, so you don’t have a lot of time.  Get started on your video!!

You can also get more Singapore F1 Events Information if you’re interested.  As always the contest has rules and requirements that you must follow, so make sure you check out their website and read through the terms and conditions before you enter.

I am wondering if anyone knows the rules about liquids on an airplane. I need to take Hailey’s prescription asthma medicine with us when we go on vacation and I would prefer to have it in my carry on. The medication is supposed to be stored upright and kept in a certain temperature range.  She uses a nebulizer, so her medication is liquid. One of the medications has 24 3ml vials and the other has 30 2ml vials. I called and asked but apparently speaking English is not a requirement and I have no idea what the lady said.  So I still don’t know the answer and am hoping someone has had experience with this and knows the answer.

I know I talked a little bit earlier today about taking a visit to Branson Missouri.  While I have never been there I have visited some websites that have really made me want to visit there.  There is so much to do and see and it seems like a perfect fit for a family vacation, a romantic getaway or a fun friends getaway.

One of the many things going on in Branson will be happening in 2010 on September 19th.  Branson will be where the Ironman 70.3 will have its starting race.  It will be where one of the 34 worldwide qualifying events takes place for the 2010 Foster Grant Ironman World Championship 70.3.

Staying at the Hilton Branson Convention Center would be the perfect choice!  Even if you’re just taking a trip for the fun of it- there are tons of restaurants to check out, plus lots of shops and boutiques.  The romance package sounds like a great choice for a couple looking for a nice getaway.

I know that if Rich and I were to go to Branson we would definitely do some eating out, visiting the local theaters and fit in a round of golf.  If you’re looking for a fun getaway you’ll want to consider Branson Missouri.
