So, What is an Evening Like in the Red Dirt Lovers’ House?

Well, I can tell you that it is rarely dull.  What did we do the other evening?  We sugared.  Is that the correct word?  Sugaring?  It is similar to waxing but you use sugar instead.

Jess found a recipe online and wanted to try it out.  I don’t know what made her decide to look it up.  She asked if she could try it out on me.  I, being the good mother that I am, said, “Sure!  Why not?”  Far be it from me to hinder my children’s curiosity.  Who knows, someday one of them may make millions all because I let them cut my hair or put some sugar concoction on my legs and rip off the hair with a piece of fabric.  Okay, the real reason I let her do it?  Anyone who knows me knows I don't like to shave, and this seemed like the easy way out of having to do it.

But, it wasn’t just me.  Ryan wanted to try it out, and after Ryan, Jess did it.  Then I had to force Cody to do it.  I told her it was a “rite of passage into womanhood.”  She informed me she didn’t want to be a woman.  None the less, we talked her into it.  Next was Noah.  Jess did his back.  Then… Chad.  Check out the video. 

Noah took the video so the quality is not the best and is quite shaky.  I also must mention that what you see on Noah’s back is the sugar mixture not an oozing sore.  Also, the next day I went and shaved.
