big day...

My daughter has had braces since the fifth grade!! Can you believe it! She finally got them off and she couldn't be happier (at least for today!). Anyone who knows Kristin, knows that this is a BIG DEAL (remember that petition she was getting everyone to sign around Christmas?). This is one of the times I would reach to pick up the phone and call my Nana -- it still seems so strange that she wouldn't be on the other end. I sure do miss her!

Here is a picture of Kristin -- life without braces!! The first one is when I dropped her off at school and the second is a picture with my nephew Carter. Oh, and did I mention she got her learner's permit a while back? Yikes!!! I don't know how my parents survived -- can you spell STRESS...
