Go ‘Cats!

2006_07team Thought I would share a pic of number one son’s basketball team. Number one son would be the good-looking dude in the front row with the (ahem!) facial hair. Agh! Although the news is that I would probably take the beard deal over the newest hair adventure.  Apparently, the $4 barber’s clipper guard slipped off and she accidentally shaved one side of his head. Having inherited his mother’s quick thinking he apparently decided now would be a good time to try that mohawk. Yes you heard that right, grandma! He had her do the other side and call it good. He says it will grow out. In time.

It’s a phase right?  Someone tell me it’s a phase…… ; )

Anyway, we are so thrilled to see the boy sporting team colors. He is winging his way across the country this semester playing for the U of A. We love you Colin!

  1. Yes, Kim, it’s a phase. 🙂
    The great thing about hair is that it grows back. Tattoos are really difficult to deal with, and body piercings leave holes that may or may not close up. Yes, hair is the way to go when experimenting.
    When I was in my experimental phase, I had a jet black mohawk and worked full time in a vocational school cafeteria. I used to wrap my head in a nice scarf so I wouldn’t look too freaky or like an alternative ed student (who would work 1/2 days in the kitchen). Funny thing is, many of the teachers thought I was from the local Mennonites with my head covering! 🙂
    Look at me now: respectable homeschooling mother of six with normal hair.

  2. A similar clipper incident happened to my oldest son last summer, except that his MOTHER was the one responsible! LOL! I did it in a mohawk for him until the next day (we told him it was only temporary) when we shaved it all to a 1/2 inch summer cut.
    Go Colin and U of A!

  5. Oh my. Did I really post that comment three times, Kim? Can you see that I am awfully impatient? I only typed the code in once but hit post three times because it wasn’t working. If you find the time 🙂 feel free to erase two of them so the world does not find out what a dork I am. LOL!
