My father-in-law retired at the end of December.
He said after he retired maybe he would shave his mustache.
He even hinted that I might be the one to shave it off!!
Instead, much to my dismay and disappointment, not only did he keep the mustache but he grew a big, bushy, gray beard to match.
When we got there on Sunday, I found that he had purchased mustache max and had begun twirling the ends like an evil villain!
After I blew out my candles, I got the most wonderful SURPRISE!!
My father-in-law read me the poem he wrote, in which it stated that for my birthday I got to shave him clean!!
Unfortunately, my husband was videoing and I have no still shots of that moment, but just imagine lots of jumping and screaming.
On my part.
I was so excited!!!!
I started with the clippers.
It was amazing how much hair there was!
He'd been letting it go wild for my special day.
He had to see for himself!
He hadn't been shaved in over 33 years after all!!
Then we moved on to the razor.
I was not very good!
There was blood. 
Look at that baby face!!
I had to run and get the wedding album to compare.
None of his children can ever recall him without his mustache!!
My mother-in-law with her first 2-lip kiss in a LONG time!!
She couldn't stop staring at him; it was so different!!
Thank you for the BEST birthday surprise EVER!!!
