We were on our way to church today when from the back seat Lex started freaking out. She said, “Mom have you seen Mason’s eye brows?!” I looked back at Mason and couldn’t help but laugh – really hard! Alexis asked, “Why did you do that? Are you trying to be like John McCain?”
Rewind a few weeks…when we were at the cabin we were having a dialogue with our friends about a Time magazine cover of John McCain. He had obviously had his eyebrows shaved from the previous cover. Anyhow – Mason must have overheard?
What happened is Alexis and Lily were getting shower caps out of our storage room this morning. In the same box (our soap storage, etc. box) he found a disposable razor. He definitely got curious – I wondered what was taking him so long in the bathroom? Really he can’t give us a straight answer on why he did it – we are just glad it is Halloween this week and maybe we can incorporate this into his costume.
FYI – he also gave his left arm a shave. I really needed a good laugh – thanks Mason for making me laugh harder than I have in a very long time! I am also very proud of Mason for being such a good sport!

Oh my goodness that is hilarious. Jeana and I are busting up over here and I have tears. Thanks for helping us laugh hard again too.
Mason, maybe you and Eric should get together, he may have some tips for you. 🙂

Mason, I thought you were supposed to wait until there was more than peach fuzz on the chin! Maybe it’s not John McCain you are trying to emulate but Michael Phelps! He looks for all kinds of ways to make his body smooth so he can increase his speed in the water! Can’t wait until Thanksgiving to check out those eyes! Maybe some Reed’s Dairy Chocolate milk will help out the situation.

Mason, you must be crazy guy. It’s a good thing they grow back. We remember one of your aunts who shaved there arms. That grew back too. Happy Halloween.

Enjoy shaving while it is fun. I could probably stand to take a shaver to my eyebrows. They are longer than the hair on my head these days. Your dad would have shaved the word Jodi in his chest hair a long time ago if he had a little bit more. Great Blog. Lots of laughs.
