BRACE FACE NO MORE!!

As of 10am this morning I officially have NO Braces!!   This is maybe the best thing that has happened to me so far in 2012.

This was me telling my girls how excited I was this morning....They reciprocated if you can't tell :)

 I have been waiting 42 months to walk into my orthodontist office and see this sign...

I seriously feel like a million bucks!

The girls at Dr. Thalgott's office are so awesome!  They gave me a little going away present (I mean I have been there 3.5 years so they pretty much know everything about me)!  I am going to miss everyone at the office but I will not miss having braces.  I will not miss rubberbands,  in fact I am going to burn them all tonight. I will not miss having to wear wax because my wires are poking my cheek or tongue.  AND I will not miss the pain of getting new wires and new chains.

So to celebrate I bought myself something today from one of my favorite online furniture shops. I have been stalking her for a while but haven't been able to buy anything because she either sold it already or it doesn't go with my house.  I ran across this cutie today and emailed her right away. 

I bought the white one on the left!   Now I just need to make a place for it.

The real celebrating will be this weekend,  our friends Walt and Lexie are coming in to town to visit and there is a carmel covered apple out there somewhere with my name on it!

To end here is a favorite picture of Ryan and I from our weekend at Lake Las Vegas.   We had so much fun and will definitely be going back.
