Baldy!

My husband has a LOT of hair. Thick, coarse, dark hair. Imagine my surprise, and excitement when he said he wanted to donated to St. Baldricks. What is St. Baldricks, you ask? Wellllll…..The St. Baldrick's Foundation is a volunteer-driven charity committed to funding the most promising research to find cures for childhood cancers and give survivors long and healthy lives. So, you donate money and then shave your head! :)

Ben’s friend, Levin, put together a team of fellow fireman {Bald Brotherhood} in the hopes of raising $1,000 to donate. I think they were able to raise around $700. And to top it off {literally} my husband shaved his head!

The kids didn’t know what to think! Paisley was skeptical at first. Parleigh was a little freaked out!

I never thought I’d see the day that Ben would shave all his hair off. And really, it’s not that bad!
