Braces (and other things)

So I had to go to the orthodontist on Thursday... My orthodontist said that they had to put two wires on the top and the bottom now instead of just one. Then he also said that they were just doing the final touches!!! =] So what that mean is that I should be able to get my braces off in 3 or 4 months. I can't wait!!! Sorry, no pictures. I really don't feel like waiting 20 minutes for them to load. :/ So about Westside... The school is ok, and I have made several new friends. However school is school and there is not much to say about that. As you know my birthday is Oct. 13 (I know it's early to be talking about it), and I am planning to have another birthday slumber party this year. I am planning to have it on Oct. 23... Also I have entered Gracie in the rally show on Oct. the 17th and 18th!!! Maybe this time I will actually do all of the signs instead of getting NQ for missing one. hmmm... I think that sums up everything...

Cutest Dog Competition

So I entered Gracie in a cutest dog competition where the winner gets one million dollars. =) She has already made it to round two, but I would really like it if you would go online and vote for Gracie once a day. The address to the website is below, but the link doesnt work so you will have to copy and paste it. If you enter you dog let me know and I will vote for you dog. Thanks so much!!! =] Just so you know the picture takes a few seconds to load so just wait on it.

it has been a while

Well today I realized just how long it had been since I last posted... Sorry I have been on myspace a lot and kinda forgot about my blog. But anyways summer has been pretty good; i even got Cheyenne to come over!!! :) Its about time her mother let her come over. Cheyenne and I went swimming in my pool too!!! August 5th is registration day at westside, and August 12th is text book day. When I get my schedule I will let you know what my classes are. Gee I cant wait until school starts!!! :( (fyi there was sarcasms in that sentence). If you interested here is a link to my myspace: www.myspace.com/marianne_elizabeth but if you are not friends with me you cant see all of my stuff. If you have a myspace please friend me.

Gracie and the Fresh Green Beans

As you all know mom have a garden and she always gets some good stuff out of it. Well today she picked green bean. She cut the stems off and occasionally gave the dogs one. Gracie loved them!!! She looked funny eating them though because they didn't fit in mouth properly.

Prom

Yeah the 8th graders get to go to a prom at the end of the year. The cost is eight dollars. I had to borrow $5 from mom to go because I only had $3. Anyways, it was so much fun! I mostly hung out with Cheyenne (she is my best friend). I didn't dance though because I don't dance. And in case you are wondering I didn't have a "date". Mom was chaperoning the prom and won't let me have one. (Not that I actually wanted one!!! LOL!!!). The picture of the girl in the pink dress with the brownish hair is Cheyenne. The girl in the other pink dress with the black hair is Shay. And last, but not least the girl in the red is Becca. The black shoes are the ones I wore to the prom.

Dental Pain

I had to go get a baby tooth pulled today. It was my last baby tooth, and it didn't fall out because the permanent tooth that was supposed to push it out came in behind it. The novocain has started to ware off, and my gums are sore. The roots on the baby tooth were a lot longer than I had expected. I was also given a list of instruction of how to care for the spot were the tooth was pulled. Tomorrow I have to swish with some salt water. That will probably sting pretty bad. I also have to be careful not to get food in the hole where the tooth was. This one I don't completely understand, but I am not supposed to drink out of straws until the hole is completely healed up.

Six Flags

This week is spring break. Barry and I went to six flags in Atlanta, Georgia. We both bought season passes since we only live two hours away from the park. The regular tickets are $40 and season passes are $60; so if we go one more time to six flags we have gone enough times to make the tickets worth it. Anyways, the trip was tons of fun. My favorite ride Goliath. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwMCKiUzU-s here is a link so you can watch the ride!!! It was SO awesome!!! The ride is big so I couldn't really get a good picture of it. I also took a picture of the Bat mobile and a really cool water fountain.
