My good friend Christina is having a baby and I went out to celebrate with her at her parent's beautiful plantation http://roselandplantation.com/ in Ben Wheeler, Tx.
She looked absolutely gorgeous with her little belly. I had a really good time hanging out with her and her boyfriend, Dale, her family and other friends.

Metal - LESS!!!!!!
Gosh, I guess it has been about 3 1/2 years now since the 2nd time around that I put on braces. In total, I have had braces on for the last 7 years of the last 10 years of my life. That is a L-O-N-G time to have metal in your mouth!
I had been told by Dr. Ray that I would come in for today's visit and he would decide then if my braces were coming off. I had high hopes it would happen and so I prepared for the big moment.
I have been blessed to have been recommended Dr. Ray's office and have been so pleased with the staff. They have made getting my braces tightened real fun, though in reality, sometimes it hurts like you can't imagine. I decided I would celebrate them as well for finally getting rid of me as their patient. :)
I brought along some balloons, pizza and cinnamon rolls to celebrate the occasion. All the while, though I kept them hidden in the truck, hoping Dr. Ray would free me of my metal today.
I didn't have to wait long, I think it helped that he saw my anxiousness to hear the words come out of his mouth. When he told me they were coming off, I was beyond myself. I had to ask them to give me a moment while I returned from my truck.
Of course they were kind of shocked, more so when they saw me walking in with the pizza and stuff. It was definitely the highlight of my day!
Who knew I had a pretty smile underneath all that metal!
Before...still with braces!
