I guess I should just explain why I did it. A very good friend of mine got married recently and a few of us groomsmen thought it would be funny to grow some crazy facial hair for the wedding. Well, not for the wedding per se, but for the wedding rehearsal. It was for a prank. I spent two months growing the man's-man beard. Needless to say, it was much to the chagrin of Abby. She was a good sport up until it got a little unruly.
This is the sweet-looking style I chose for my prank. Looks pretty good, right!
I'm not sure how I got Abby to smile for this picture. She didn't even want to be seen with me. I don't understand why not.
As you can see, the mustache was a key part of the prank. I spent two months growing that beard and I was sure going to make it worth it. We wore those mustaches like they were already out of style.
All clean for the wedding day.
Based on Abby's reaction to the beard and sweet mustache with a flare, I figured I better try a few other styles before I shaved it all off because it's probably going to be a very LONG time before it ever happens again.
I hope Matt appreciates what we did for him.
If you'd like to see some more crazy pictures of us with our mustaches, there are a few great shots on Taylor's blog.

Surely Abby is mistaken about not liking the mustache. Perhaps she just needed more time with it. Or maybe it's a side effect of all the hormones that come with being pregnant...
I'm sure if you grow it back for a longer period after the baby is born she will realize how stately it is.
Or maybe she was just playing hard to get. You know the old saying, "When a woman says 'no', what she really means is 'I like your mustache'".
You raise some very good points, Brian. Maybe I should grow the stache back sooner than I thought. What was I thinking when I shaved it? I probably wasn't thinking.
