Jess With HAIR


So here's a picture of Jess with hair back in the day---10 years ago!  Wowza!
 He's been shaving it for like 9 years and loves it right. WELL, our awesome friends the Lindquists wanted to see what it would look like now if he grew it out for a month.  HA HA!--they bet him $100 for it.  Turns out the man Jess will do most anything for $100. So, he grew it out.  

Here is Jess and the boys watching the Super Bowl.  
It's the only picture I got of his hair.  
He wasn't so excited about the look :)  
Okay...He mostly hated it really really bad.
BUT...what he hates worse, is to back down from a dare.  
So....he grew out the ole cul-de-sac!  

It was so thick on the sides in the end....and we saw where he'll be graying first :)  Plus, it was really strange for him to use shampoo.  
He shaved it off on Valentines Day and it was SUCH a happy day for him.  

The Lindquists made awesome on the money and gave him $100 in one dollar bills :).  
As a thank you, he saved all the clippings and put them in a little jar with a bow and a sign that read, 
"$100 worth of Jess Winns hair" on it.

And as a side note--the boys were so cute watching the Super Bowl.  
On Saturday they all went and picked out their own drink, and their favorite chips. They had grapes and ice cream and just wow--they were so excited.  It was so cute to watch them with Jess.

PLUS, Kade's teacher, Mrs. Armstrong is a HUGE Giants fan. She taught the kids a bunch of stuff about both teams so they could make predictions (a skill they learn in 2nd grade :) so as Kade was sitting there he'd say stuff like, "Brady deserves that for how he's been playing on the field this season." or one time when he said something about Eli Manning and I asked him about it, he said,
 "Mom, you must not watch football." For real?  I was dying.

Fantastic post! And thank you to the Lindquists for paying up. I've wondered about Jess's awesome head too.
Special events like the Super Bowl are all you make them out to be... and sounds like your boys had a great time, aww!
But I bet you don't watch football.
