We had a “Head Shaving Party” down at church tonight….just our way of showing some love to Pastor Al. His hair has been going rather quickly with this round of chemo, so I coordinated a gathering at church tonight. Would you believe almost 2 dozen men & boys are sporting new do’s tonight? All on about 6 hours notice….I was thrilled with the turnout & Pastor Al seemed to enjoy it, too & of course, appreciate it. I’ve never cut so much hair in one night & my calves are telling me about standing so long — don’t know how the professionals do it all day long!!

Chris is running sound for the musical at school this weekend, so he didn’t make it down to church, but we’ll get him clean-shaven in the morning. All our boys got clipped though – yes, even Ben & he looks sooooooooooooooooo much better! Al couldn’t believe I was shaving him – he bellowed across the Fellowship Hall, “How can you do that to him? It’s taken him his ENTIRE life to grow that!?!” True, but he really does look better. His long locks were falling out so fast…a lot like Al’s.

Ben didn’t seem to enjoy it much, but I think most of that was the fact he was so hot & there was a lot of noise at the time. Oh yea, he was hungry, too. Once we were done & home, he was set & happy as a lark!

Check out the before & after shots of each…. Rob definately wins the prize for longest hair cut: 5 inches – no kidding! Tom for sweetest smile & Ben for loudest scream – clearly no contest there!
