CRAZY!

That pretty much sums up the events of our lives these days. Wrestling, dance, school, homework, doctors appointments, new puppies, laundry that multiplies faster than bunnies...it’s crazy. Brandon is in the process of getting braces. He's in the growth plate and headgear phase. We're currently 4 weeks behind however because somehow he "lost" the strap to his headgear. Magically he found it in time for his appointment. Now, I'm not accusing anyone of hiding it...I'm just saying, seems kinda odd. The plan was for braces to be on in August, before school started. However, like all well laid plans...this too is falling apart. (see lost headgear strap) I've got great news for Brandon though. Summer break is almost here! That means he can now wear his headgear during the day as well as at night! I know this is going to excite him. Hopefully this will push us back on the schedule.

Thoughts in my head...

I've recently taken a break from facebook. I admit I enjoy scrolling through my news feed and seeing a quick glimpse in my friends life. It’s a great way for busy people to stay connected. I also notice that a majority of my "friends" portray their lives to be perfect. Many feel the need to exercise their limitless knowledge of being the perfect parent, passing judgment at the click of a mouse. I HATE that. I'm sure I'm guilty in some ways so before you get your panties ruffled calm down. I know I'm not perfect. Life is real. This isn’t a Lifetime movie and not everything always turns out to be happy. In the 15 years that Jeff and I have been married we have had our shares of ups and downs. We have struggled with difficult choices and even butt heads with final decisions. We have always done it as a team. Together. The captains of our crazy train. My point in this post is to say...I loved blogging. I want to blog more. I love looking back at old memories and reliving them through posts and pictures. I'm going to continue from this point on with a more "real" approach. I hope this doesn't bite me in the butt...
