A Smile Worth Waiting For

Okay, so yesterday was the day. The day that we have been waiting on for the last 5 years. A day that we have dreamed about. ASHTON GOT HIS BRACES OFF. The dream vacation to Alaska that we have sacrificed to pay for those choppers has finally paid off. Granted, this picture is certainly about as fake as it gets, but you can at least see those beautiful, straight teeth that we have been waiting on since third grade. Of course he left the orthodontist's office with a bag of candy and gum that he finished off before we got home. I guess that I don't blame him.
Look what a girl can do when she gets an ink pen and has some time on her hands. It was also on her stomach.

This is one of the pretty outfits that Aunt Pam gave us for Gotcha celebration day. Green is certainly one of Emma's best colors. Of course it was like pulling teeth trying to get her to be still for a couple of pictures.
