May It Rest In Peace...

We did it. We cut the mullet.

Please join us in a moment of silence while we honor it's memory via some "the best of" mullet photos.

Okay. Now that that's out of the way, let the fun begin! We cut Emme's hair over at my mom's house -- mostly because she had the tools, and there were plenty of people there to provide entertainment whilst I snip, snip, snipped.

{She had no idea what was coming...}

{The "before."}

{Emme's still pretty happy while the adults strategize.}

{The first snip! Complete with uncle Brent's entertaining antics.}

{What the? When did I get jowls?}

{After the first snip. "Ahhh! What was that?"}

{The mid-way rat tail. Look how long that sucker is, ha ha!}

{The longest locks ever for a first haircut.}

{Trimming it up a bit. "Okay guys, I'm done!"}

{She still loves her mommy. Phew!}

{The "after."}

For a few days afterwards, Chris kept telling me she "looks like a dude!" And I kept telling him "that's why we wear bows!" But it only took a week or so to get used to it, and now I don't miss at at all, like I thought I would.

Rest in peace, sweet mullet!
