There are many traditions in the family I grew up in, and many that Justin and I are starting/continuing in our little family. But a new tradition has surfaced since, oh, about September or October last year. My sister Erin has had braces a few months longer than me and we see the same orthodontist. But a few months ago we realized that if we are going to go to apponitments, why not go together? So that is what we do. She eats dinner with us, then we head off with our Advil to the orthodontist at 7:00 (love the evening appointments!). We have a great time at the orthodontist and have sympathy for one another's pain, and then we go get a treat! Most of the time we go to the grocery store and pick up something that we can share with Justin when we get home. This last week we made blueberry shakes and they were yummy!

It's nice to have someone going through the same thing at the same time, and hey, misery loves company! :)

Sounds like a great excuse to have some ice cream to me! :)
