our church had a volunteer appreciation dinner and we were asked to dress up in our favorite decade. our fam represented the 50's, 60's, & 70's.
jordan really took ownership of his outfit and started a month ago to grow out his bread then created his amazing handle bars. i attempted a beehive with a roll of toilet paper under that mess.
thank you so much hcb-rr staff for putting on such an awesome show tonight. you all out did yourselves!!
