All you can do is laugh!

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you cut off a pony tail? Well at our house...we found out! I was cooking dinner and Jake came up behind me and asked, "what would you do if I cut off your pony tail?" I said, "between you and Derek (a guy I work with) it's bound to happen one of these days." Then there was a pause. Then SNIP!! He really cut off my pony tail. We both started laughing so hard! It was funny! For those that know me, know I'm not really into my hair. I'm too cheap to pay more then $20 for a cut and that's IF I can't sucker a friend to do it for free (experienced or not). And no I didn't cry. It's just hair and it will grow back. But there was one problem. I had a mullet!! I'm not into hair but I'm into it enough not to have a mullet! Monday was supposed to be a tight schedule. Come home from work, eat dinner, go weigh Jake in for the Biggest Loser, hit the library and write my midterm paper. Now we had to throw in a hair cut! Shannon was able to fix my hair temporarily until Nicole (a licensed hair lady) does it on Saturday. Not that you can even tell that someone professional didn't do it! I hope everyone learns from these pictures what happens when you cut off a pony tail! Remember the hair closest to the band is going to be the shortest!! Thank you Jacob!
                                                   
This is an amazing flashback to the 80's.
                                
My sad attempt to pull my hair back! When we went to weigh Jake in for the biggest loser i put on his hat and he looked at me and said, "hey! what am I going to do about my hat hair?" I just started laughing and said, "you cut off my pony tail and you're worried about your HAT HAIR!" Oh we got a good laugh out of that!

and the back! I must admit that it's easy to do, it uses less shampoo and conditioner, and it's not going to be hot this summer! In Jake's semi defense there was a point that I wanted to cut off all of my hair but I didn't because I was too chicken.

Um, I would have laughed, and then I would have killed him. It looks REALLY cute short, though!!

Em, that is the hair cut EVERYONE your age is wearing here. And it WILL be a lot cooler and easier to deal with during the heat of summer. People will mistake you for Posh Spice!

Oh my Em! I was laughing so hard when I read this. I probably would have beat him, and then laughed. You handled it so well, and it looks really cute. Ha ha ha ha...I am still laughing.

You laugh- but I would cry!! It really does look cute though! I would give Jake some congrats but then he might think I support his action which I dont. Good think you are just cute.

I read this to brent and we were laughing just as hard the second time. Don't you just wonder why we married them sometimes?

I am shocked that Jake would just cut your hair like that! I would die if David did that to me! It's a good thing you're so easy-going!

You've always looked cute no matter what you crazy girl. Sounds like your husband is just as crazy as you are! :) Your hair looks super cute that short!
