The kids were less than enthused that they had a dentist appointment today. In the words of Clayson, this isn't the way I would spend my spring break... We got up and got out the door to meet my mom, grandparents, aunt & uncle, and cousins for a few minutes while they ate lunch. We did not have time to eat there so we ate McDonald's on the way. We were just stopping in to say hi. Here are the girls in their green and the boys with nothing more than a pretty (sour) face. Apparently, they don't have much green to wear.
From here, we went to the dentist. It was a quick, painless visit and easy on the checkbook since there is only one cavity needing to be filled. But then again, they do think Clayson needs to see an orthodontist. Is it just the norm for every kid to have braces these days? I thought his teeth were straight but I did not go to dental school to make this determination. What's one more monthly payment, anyway?
From the dentist we went and got ice cream at Cold Stone Creamery. (Isn't that where you take your children immediately after a cleaning?) I remember not being able to eat or drink anything for thirty minutes but these days it must be an instant flouride treatment. Fitting for the impatient society that we live in. With our ice cream, we walked around the Rockwall Harbor. I love this place because you feel like you are on vacation, it is a whole different atmosphere. It got us all hankerin' for a boat. I think I would get out of the house and off the computer more if we had a boat to provide entertainment for us. It's just a passing thought. Here are our Harbor snapshots.
We had a fun afternoon together. It was the perfect weather to be outside eating an ice cream on the lake. With or without a boat.
