Yesterday Was A Good Day!!!!!

Not Just a good day, but a GREAT day. I might even say that it ranks up there with day I got married or the day each of my children were born. One of those monumental days that will forever go down in history. (Or at least my own personal history)
Let me back up for just a minute.
A year and a half ago, my sweet husband and his bestest buddy made a silly bet.
THE BET-For Ryan to let his hair grow out. Not a big deal to most, but for Ryan who on average would shave his head three times a week, this was outrageous.
THE PRIZE- Thrify ice cream for life.
So with a bet extended and an ice cream incentive... the bet began.
It became a little out of control, (In my opinion). The bet was lengthened, the hair grew longer and longer. My hot husband was lost amongst a mane of hair. I obviously hated it, and hated the fact that he only trimmed it ONCE in 18 months!
You can imagine my excitement when May 8th rolled around and the bet was OVER! Thrifty ice cream for life won and the "MANE COULD BE TAMED"!!
HAL - A- FREAK - EN - LU- YA!!!!
It was a talk "show moment". An extreme makeover (click here for the details).
I didn't know whether to cry, be relieved, be happy, excited, ecstatic or what. I was all of that.
Because my man went from...
THIS!

TO THIS!

I AM IN LOVE!!!!

That is seriously an amazing difference! He looks good both ways, but the shorter hair is definitely more handsome. I LOVE your label to this one. ;)

Doesn't sound like you miss it, but does Ryan?
