it's the faux hawk

(although this picture didn't really capture it very well)

and just one more because I can't resist

So here is the link to the cookies. I have no idea how I came across it or where I clicked the link, but yum!

[and now... the rest of the story]

Okay, so maybe Dustyn shaving his hair into a mohawk was a little out of character.
Maybe, just maybe there is a little more to the story.
Maybe there is a reason he went from this:

to this:

But honesty, I really do not mind this:

at. all.
I most definitely think I have one handsome husband.

So it all started with Dustyn's school doing Giving it Back.
The students do various activities and fundraisers to raise money for a family in the community that has gone through a difficult time or two and would benefit from the help a little extra money. (you can read more about this years family here.) It is an awesome program and the students really get a lot out of it.

Before they start the fundraising, the faculty and student council members pledge certain things in order to motivate the students to raise more money.
One male teacher pierces his ear.

At least one teachers is duct taped to the wall.

There is a limbo competition.

An elixir of death.

 And many various other activities.

All in all it is a lot of fun.

Dustyn decided to change things up and do something different this year. I jokingly said you should bic your head. The decision was made and he made his pledge. For $5000.00 he would be the new Mr. Clean.

A few weeks later, Katie and I were talking about how hot this guy is:

Swoon.

So I teased Dustyn... maybe you should get a mohawk.

He agreed.

I was scared. Very scared.

So the day came.

I was nervous. I mean... my 33 year old husband was going to actually really have a mohawk. Are you serious? I just might be married the the geek of the west here soon. Could he really pull it off? I won't lie. I surely didn't think so.

Well...

He so can.

I am so bummed that it will be gone soon.


Sad, sad day.
(there is always summer, right?)

And sadly for the rest of the week he has it (he said he'd keep it for an entire week if they raised over $100 at the assembly), he can't spike it for school. Sad.

And he's so much hotter than any dude in a high school singing club.
with or without the mohawk.

Dude, my husband totally rawks the mohawk.
and just in case you wanna see a few more photos:

and that my friends, is the rest of the story.

who knew Dust would rock the mohawk
