The final product My hair after the second treatment My natural hair (it was not that red, just bad lighting) being colored the 1st time I naturally have light brown hair and a year ago I decided to start adding blonde to it when the balayage technique started to become popular.  The first time (June) I had it done it looked great, but I noticed after a few months the color started to turn yellow and seem brassy.  I wasn't surprised as it was the first treatment of going brown to blonde and decided to have it redone in January.  I chose a different hairstylist as my previous one was no longer there and emphasized to her my dislike of how the color changed and how I wanted to go a lighter blonde.  She whipped up the color and my hair looked great!

My family is big on skiing and this year we decided to go to Telluride, CO for New Years.  We stayed in town for almost a week and spent most of our time on the slopes.  To give our legs a rest we took a break one day and went horseback riding through the snow.  The views were incredible and although I am not the best rider I do love being on a horse!  For the town's New Year celebration they had a group of skiers come down the mountain carrying flames as seen in my last photo while the fireworks went on.

Hey guys! Sorry I have been absent lately I was traveling a lot over the last month and getting back into the swing of things at school.  I wanted to share my trip with San Francisco because it was my first time to this city and I loved it!!  The people were super friendly and there were so many neat spots throughout the city.  We were only there a few days and decided to rent bikes to get around the city without having to drive and pay for city parking.  This was definitely the best way to go as we paid for time up front and had the freedom of choosing our itinerary.  We also went to the Muir Woods to see the beautiful redwoods and hit up Ghiradelli (more than once I might add).  Overall it was an incredible trip and I can't wait for my next adventure!
