I’m Bald, Totally Baldacious that is.   On Saturday TNT people and some friends attended the silent auction and kick of the “Keep Andy Baldacious” challenge.  The silent auction raised almost $700 and I am still waiting to hear the final number for how much BW3’s is going to be able to donate.  All in all, it was a very successful event!

Honored Hero’s Luke and Lauryn were there to celebrate.  Unfortunately, Luke wasn’t feeling so great from his treatment and had to go home early, and I know we all hope he is feeling better now.  Lauryn was feeling great and chipper and kicked off the shaving of my head with a great big swipe down the middle, she would come back for another few later!

The damage is done, no turning back now.  Look how proud of herself Lauryn is.

After Lauryn, a lot of people paid $5 to take a swipe at my head.

Before you knew it all that was left was a “patch work” haircut.

Many thanks to Becca for taking pitty on me and buzzing the rest off.

In addition to many thanks for everyone who came and bid on auction items, Becca, Mallory, her sister, and Erin who showed up early and helped me setup get an even bigger “Thank you so much.”  I had fun and I hope everyone else did too, plus we raised a good chunk of change for LLS.

After hanging out a while longer and going over to one of the TNTers house for board games, fun and food, Becca took a razor to my scalp and shaved my head the rest of the way to make me Totally Baldacious.

My head shaved smooth!

The new “look” is taking a while to get used too.  My head is ghostly white and do a double take when I see my reflection, but being bald also is much cooler and everyone tells me I have a good shaped head.

With the donations I have received so far, and true to my word, I have sponsorships to keep me shaved through August 14.  Its just a small price to pay to help raise awareness for the LLS’ cause and show support to those who loose their hair from battling cancer.
