For anyone who’s been living under a rock, Jordan got her braces off yesterday!  She wore them for 19 months, from January 19, 2009 to August 18, 2010.  Today her teeth are perfect and she looks even prettier than ever.

We really wanted to make a big day out of it, so I took a half day at work.  After Jordan’s orthodontist appointment, we bought some Swedish fish so that Jordan could eat something sticky and chewy without her braces.  Forbidden candy, at last!  Then we took a pizza to Simon’s office where the three of us ate lunch together.  To top it off, Jordan I went to see the premier of the movie, “Vampires Suck.”  We ate popcorn, drank about a gallon of Coke Zero, and laughed our butts off!  The movie was ridiculous and funny in an “Airplane!” kind of way.  Very cheesy. 

Of course I took some video of the event.  The video will take 2 to 3 minutes to download, so be patient and check it out!

Angie and I have had a horrible problem with Joey escaping from the dog pen in the back yard.  With all of the brain power contained within the Lathrop Family household we could not figure out how he was escaping the back yard.  I have to admit that I was very surprised when we finally found out how he was escaping....  Click the link below to see true Buttafuoco magic.....

Very awesome....
