13 years ago

13 years ago I was staying over at a friends house, when I jumped into a swimming pool and chipped my front tooth.

My parents called the dentist and set up an "emergency filling" for the next morning at 8am.
When my dad picked me up that morning, he told me my Grandma (his mom) had passed away.I walked into the Dentists office bawling, not because my tooth but obviously because of our loss.
I always associated my broken tooth to remembering how I felt that day losing my grandmother whom I loved so much.
Because we had the appointment made so quickly after the break, we didn't take a picture, and no one even saw the chip except for my dad, my friend and the dental people.
Well....13 years later, that SAME filling I had put in, was taken out today. Not because it broke or fell out, (IT HELD UP THIS LONG) but because it was discolored, I had it redone.
I TOOK A PICTURE this time! jake has never even seen my freakish tooth.

I look like LLYOD from Dumb and Dumber!!
Anyway, as funny as this picture looks, I couldn't help but become emotional entering the dentists office thinking I miss my grandma. 13 years later. I'm so happy, and lucky to know some day I will see her again, and that my wonderful grandfather who passed away nearly 10 years after her, is now reunited with her :)


Here I am in all my toothless, redneck glory....

OK so after...Jake, the kids and I hung out. We went to the mall, bought awesome Easter presents and took the CUTEST picture of Brady in his AWESOME overalls!
