Sarah's haircut

My baby done cut her hair!

Well, I seem to pretty much only blog when friends/family cut their hair lately. If not as drastic a change as Billy's recent 'follicle-length-reduction,' this is still pretty significant.

My wife, Sarah, who is known for her long, thick, beautiful dark hair, has been thinking for a long time about getting rid of some of the weight. (She and I have had a longstanding feud about who's hair is thicker, hers or mine, but really hers definitely is. I get the award for 'most volume' though!) As usual with haircuts, a little more came off than she wanted, but the cool thing about hair is that it grows. And it really does look pretty cute!

Here's the new Sarah:

Here's her 'prize' to scale (she's donating it to Locks of Love); this thing is so substantial and since it was a part of our lives for such a long time, it's almost like a dead creature:

And here's a look at the cross section. It's hard to really appreciate without seeing it person, but this is some thick hair!

So, it's sort of the end of an era. But not really. She's growing it back out.
