Erica's New Smile

Yep! Erica got braces! She looks absolutely adorable in them and looks all grown up! She got them about a month ago and brushing and flossing has taken on a new meaning in our home! It is hysterical and the first week was a learning curve for us but we figured it out. She will be in them for two years. After two weeks, I could already see the change and adjustments they were making to her teeth.

This is at Camp Gilead this year with her class! We had a ton of fun with science projects and her cabin made a boat out of cardboard in which two students from each cabin had to race on the lake. Erica and Beth were the smallest in the cabin so they floated in the lake and paddled for all they were worth. Does it help any to tell you that THEY WON the FIRST HEAT and then turned around in a wet boat and WON THE SECOND HEAT AGAINST THE FINALISTS AND THEIR PRINCIPAL????!!!!! It was hysterical to say the least! I told Erica, "see ... there are benefits to being the smallest!!!!" Go Girl Power!!!!
