My Mountain Man

Rob decided to experiment with a different time of facial hair this winter.

A FULL ON BEARD.

Not to be confused with the time of the creepy cop stash.

I think it turned out rather nice and fills in quite a tremendous amount more than it did when we were young and first in love  (my mom still mourns over the "dirt" on his face in our engagement pictures).


  

He was sure to condition and lotion it every day.  Necessary steps for smooches. 

He was sad to see it go.  His face is freezing.  He may, or may not, be growing it back as we speak. 

What are your thoughts?  You like-y?

hummm... I'm undecided about the whole facial hair thing. guess I'd have more of an opinion if there were any guys in my life to smooch. oh well, maybe someday ;o)

Well obviously I'm a big facial hair fan, but I think he looks great! Way to fill it in Rob! Jer would be jealous! He can't quite fill in the sides :) It's so much fun to see the difference from when you were young. I loved it!

It's a good look on him. Great idea on the conditioning and lotioning!

Mmmm I'm not a huge fan of the beard... aside from it not being white he looks like Santa to me ;) and I went to look at the "dirt"... i swear Robbie and Kyle look SOOO much alike to me when Robbie was younger! Aside from Kyle being blonde that is.

Lisa,
I TOTALLY agree with you on the look alike thing. NO one in the family believes me, claiming that Rob is pure Gillespie and Kyle is pure Thiessen but I don't think so!
