Elizabeth promised to cut her hair for every donation she got this year for Jump for Heart. Actually quite a few of her donations asked for a picture instead but she wanted to donate it as well so she decided to go with 11", so it would still be shoulder length and easy to braid. We waited until AFTER her ballet show in order to not have to worry about ballet buns though.
She went to a sleepover directly after school (taking the bus home with her friend), hence the ridiculous number of bags at the bus stop.
