I have no braces, no kids with braces currently, and no need to get braces.... but, I have always wanted to attend "Braces Weekend." If you knew just how fun and awesome Braces Weekend is, you too, would want to attend.
I invited myself long ago, knowing those attending were going on "Emily's Birthday Weekend" (Emily, though, had other plans!). I really wanted to hang out with family we seldom get to see and have fun with my incredible nieces and nephews. It was an added bonus to get to stay at Mark and Cos' beautiful new home! (Thank you so much for your generosity and hospitality! )
Since I have recently met an incredible guy... I also thought it would be a great opportunity for my new friend... boyfriend (yes, I said it out loud)... Greg, to meet a bit more of the family and back out early on, if necessary. He does still call me, I'm happy to report. Even after I ditched him for several hours to go to the St. Patrick's Day parade (of all things) with the nieces, Deb, Cos, Dave and Les and Mom.
A good time was had by all... we loved walking the parade route to cheer on the girls, and get lots of free toothbrushes and tooth paste. I even have a coupon for a free orthodontic consultation with a FABULOUS orthodontist, if anyone is interested!!
And, in case you were wondering, Greg and the boys survived the parade abandonment, too.

SO MUCH FUN! Thanks so much for being daring enough to come, and bring Greg! We loved having you guys here. Thanks for all your fun Tri news! I was so excited--I had to jump on and say we're in!! Would you like to come do one? I need to still read about them--but I love the off road ones (of course I am going to need to SERIOUSLY train!) Let me know if you're interested
So fun to keep in touch. You are so great! I loved your word about Dad Gibson. He is a saint! How blessed I am to have known him.
