Braces, Blog Train and Freebie

I'm here again, wow twice in a month I'm on a roll, lol. Not much to say really just the daily pieces of life.

The braces on B~man are working wonders though. His front teeth are even! I mean they are in line with the other teeth instead of being all wonky. Can't believe how fast they have worked so far. We are hoping for the bottom braces on the next visit in March. Although that is going to depend on if his lordship has shaped up with the brushing. Yep I got hauled in at the last visit as sir has not being what he was supposed to with regards to brushing. I sat there seething (at the boy) as we have had all out war about this and I informed the orthodontist of this. Let's just say he is in jeopardy of treatment stopping...............goodbye $1000 I have already invested *sigh*. I didn't know whether to cry or leave him there. I'm hoping the message got through, so far so good at home (it's only been a week but better than nothing). The iPod Touch was taken away, the new shoes he 'just had to have' sat in the box in the living room for a week (funny as he put them on every night and stared longingly at them) and the biggy.............if the braces have to come off due to lack of proper care he can kiss hockey goodbye. Yep, I did it, told him that come registration in May I would not be forking over the fee for him to play if he didn't shape up and to consider it repayment for what I wasted on his mouth. Think that got his attention. It's not like his dad would pay as I'm still waiting for his portion from LAST year but that's a whole other subject. Ahhhh the joys of owning a pre-teen, now I know why my mother laughs at me.

On the scrapping front both of my fave places have things going on. Scrap Orchard is a stop on the ADSR again this year. I'm not sure which stop yet but I will post it once I have a for sure date. The challenges are awesome as usual and there is the charity kit, One Love that is screaming gorgeousness.
Sunshine Studio Scraps has undergone a change, a big change and we are working real hard behind the scenes to make it sunny again. There is a gorgeous grab bag, Lovers Walk with guests Flergs, Michelle Batton, and Sugarplum Paperie contributing and yesterday was a good old fashioned blog train that started on Flergs' blog.


I looked through my folder of 'kits in the works' and found this one that was all done just needed a preview. So here it is for the taking. I hope you enjoy it and if you happened to create something with it please link me up and show me, I'd love to see it!! You can click on the image to download or below.
