Riley's 1st Haircut

After enough comments from friends and family about Riley's mullet, and Casey realizing that his hairstyle made him look like Terry Bradshaw (it really did!!!), we made the decision to take him for his first haircut. It seems silly to take a kid in to get a haircut when he really doesn't have much hair to speak of, but unfortunately for Riley, the hair he DOES have is mostly on the back of his head and it was, in fact, getting pretty long.

So, after much soul searching, Riley and I made our way to Mt. Tabor Barber Shop (a staple in Winston-Salem and also the place that at which Casey has been getting his hair cut since law school) this morning. He was absolutely perfect, and both the guy who cut his hair and I felt that he didn't really know that anything was going on. I suspect this is mostly because there was a ceiling fan, a tv and a cute little girl in the room, all of which he watched intently.

Here are a few photos from the big event.



By the way, this haircut, which took no more than 2 minutes to complete in its entirety, cost $13. And Casey says the charge for MY haircut is outrageous...
