I would be horribly remiss if after all these honeymoon posts I did not share a picture of Dave (almost) clean-shaven. Dave and I have known each other for some ten plus years. We were friends in college and kept in touch over the years, only to start dating in 2006. I have always known him to have facial hair. He says that a goatee makes him look “older” and “well distinguished”. And although Dave swears that he was clean-shaven for a short period of time in college, I don’t remember what he looked like back then.
I wanted him to shave.
As the story goes, he promised to shave for our wedding if I watched every single episode of Star Wars. As you can see from the previous wedding post, I did not complete this task. Actually this epic quest for a clean-shaven groom came to an end right as the Episode 4 original VHS tape came to an end.
I married him anyway. He married me anyway! And he shaved for the honeymoon…and only the honeymoon.
Surely I can get enough support from the new readers of this blog to convince Dave to do it one more time?

Let his hair get a couple inches longer, and he’ll look like the little boy I grew up with.
(Hm, maybe that’s not the best thing to say to get him to stay clean-shaven?) Personally, I like the beard. I agree that it makes him look older and more sophisticated. However, you are the one who has to kiss him, so you get veto power.
