10 facts about Tim Hortons

I'm not much liking my yellow hair... its YELLOW, or a variation of yellow anyways. I passed by the mirror this morning, having forgotten what I had done, and did a kind of "what the.." double take, is that me? NO. Couldn't be... The plan now is to wait a few days(until my sister leaves) and then cover it up with a more me shade. BLAH, I am NOT a blonde.... more power to those who can pull it off, I can not.

Easter egg hunt this morning involved a 10 year old plowing through parents, aunt and a dog to get chocolate. Would swear she never saw chocolate before. The bunny did bring cool prizes, my husband has been playing super mario on the wii all day!
