Back in November my wonderful husband, Geoff, decided to grow out his goatee into a full beard. At first it wasn't so bad, but I soon discovered that a full beard, though it grew soft later, isn't exactly as comfortable for kissing and cuddling as I'd thought! Not one to dictate how Geoff keeps his facial hair, however, I let it play out. Sure enough, about a month ago he decided to shave it!
I'm kicking myself for not taking a before picture of the beard! I know I have one somewhere, but I can't seem to find it right now, so we will have to make do with during and after!
Here are the photos of the progress. As you can see, we decided to be silly with it!

From the side!
The stache
And finally...
The end result! It's been over 3 years since I have seen his face completely clean! On Sunday, when he did it, I couldn't stop laughing every time I looked at him, despite the fact that this is the face I fell in love with!
So, we're going to give it a month and see where it goes from there! After all, it is just hair...it will grow again!





I'm a 27 year old, newly married, newly living in Washington, librarian trying to find a job in a library. Meanwhile I'm working as a office assistant while I figure out how to live my new life as a wife.
Geoff, my wonderful, caring husband works with computers and, in his free time, plays with video games, lounges on the couch and cooks with sourdough.
Clarabelle and Hermione are our babies! Hermione, who came to Megg as a kitten, loves playing with fur mice and bottle caps. Clarabelle's hobbies include sleeping, lying in the sun and playing with straws. 
Geoff and Megg met through a mutual friend and spent 4 years dating long distance. They were finally able to live in the same zipcode after what seemed like forever when they got married on January 2, 2010! Soon after they bought a house and have been enjoying the Pacific Northwest together while being both newlyweds and new homeowners!
