Happy Birthday Emma

Emma turned 13 on November 8th, 2008. A teenager! To celebrate, she went out to an Italian resturant with some friends, then came home for a slumber party! Here are some pictures from the fun event!

Emma Got Braces!

On Thursday, November 20th, I got braces! The colors are turquoise and lavender, as shown in the picture below. I got lucky; they actually don't hurt that much! There was some aching on the first and second day, but other than that everything is going pretty fine! So far, I only have braces on my top set of teeth, but eventually I will be getting them on the bottom, and I will get rubber bands.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Emma
