All Good Things Must Come to an End :-(

The last activity of the night was our celebration dinner. First, we ordered up some pizza. The boys played with the new combs while they waited for the food. After dinner, we had our Hats Off Day cookies. They were a huge hit with the dynamic duo. :-)

But, all good things must come to an end, so I am sorry to say that Hats Off Day is finally winding down. The boys are in their pjs, ready for bed. They have a big day tomorrow, too. We're going to the zoo to celebrate my birthday. (yeah me!)

Thanks to all of you who helped us celebrate this special day. We hope you had as good a time as us!

And Then...

You know, it has been really fun celebrating Hats Off Day today. We've already done so much, but the festivities are still far from over!

We thought long and hard about what to do next on this momentous day. And then it hit us. Of course! The thing we did next was so obvious. Can you guess what it was?

Now that there is nothing to block that gorgeous head from sight, we had to get ourselves to the salon for haircuts! Jason and Shawn had their first haircuts today! Once again, the boys outdid themselves and worked their charm on the poor unsuspecting stylist. If you can believe it, there was only a minimal amount of tears (which came only because I had to hold Jason's head so the stylist could use the clippers around his ear). Way to go big guys!

Here are my men after their cuts.

Jason's turn was first.

Shawn was next.

Here are the rest of the pictures...enjoy! (Finally they get a haircut. I was starting to worry they'd be bald!)

Tah-Daaaaah....

Here we are, the morning of Jason's Hats Off Day appointment. Can you feel the excitement in the air?

Even Shawn is feeling the excitement because he knows that, no hat means that he and Jason will be on equal head butting ground. No more helmet advantage for Jason. YAY!!!

Jason is checking out his Hats Off Day presents. All the things that a young helmetless boy needs to look good.

Shampoo, sunscreen, and OH BOY!!!.... Jason's first hair gel!!!

We think that he is reading the ingredients in his hair gel. "hmmm...alcohol free, yes that's good, kiwi scented, uh huh, nice, paba free and dolphin safe, yep, this is good stuff."

Ah Ha! a comb to style that gel. Jason was already practicing by combing over his helmet.

Here we are at the Hats Off Day Dr. appointment. Jason doesn't like this place and the look on his face shows it.

Helmet Place, yucky! Helmets stink! Boo Helmets!

Off we go! Inside the helmet doctor's office for the LAST TIME!

Right before they go in, mommy takes one look back. The next time you see Jason, he will be helmet FREE!
One last look at the helmet...

...here he comes!

Who's that guy..... where did he come from......

Who's that guy..... where can I get one.....

Let's set Jason down for a minute so that he could do a Toyota jump, "Oh What A Feeling!" YOU DID IT JASON! You can finally say good-bye to that nasty old helmet. Happy Hats Off Day has officially begun!
Time out for a little siesta. All this partying really makes a guy tired. We shall be back with more fun in a bit!

We're Off...

We're off to say so long to the helmet for-ev-a! Here's a little something to keep you occupied until we return...
