My BEAUTIFUL smile a day after the surgery! :) haha, ya right!
This week has been a very painful week for my poor mouth :(. Got my braces tightened on Tuesday which were very very sore and painful! Then, Thursday I had a dentist appointment to get my teeth cleaned, where they found a small cavity, which was taken care of right there on the spot. Then, later that day at 12:00, the dreaded moment came, I was getting my wisdom teeth out. And now, my cheeks are puffy, I am in pain, and I look absolutly amazing with two ice packs strapped around my head! :) Oh what joy this has brought into my life! :)

I'm so grateful to Heather. Without her, myself and others possibly wouldn't be here today. She is a TRUE hero and an amazing person. I'm very sad I didn't get to know her as well as I would know her now if she were still here. But, knowing that she would lay her life down for her "kids" (as she would call us) makes me feel closer to her every day. The band wore flip flops today in her honor, as it was her favorite thing to wear on her feet. I don't even think she wore closed toes shoes to Band Camp in Delta! :) :) :)
