Train Tracks

Autumn got braces this morning. Now Brittney and Autumn both have them. Brittney has had hers for a year and still has a year and half to go. Autumn has about two and half years to go.
After the initial down payment of $1,075 (paid in two installments), I will be making monthly payments until they come off. I wanted a new car, but the amount I am paying for two sets of braces is almost the amount of a car payment. I want them to have straight teeth more than I need a new car. Kids can be so mean. A couple of boys at school have been picking on Autumn. She said that it didn't bother her. She is a lot tougher than I was. I would come home from school crying. I got braces the Summer before the 12th grade. I didn't want them to wait that long.

  1. Wow! Braces are expensive, huh? I should have got them when I was young, but never did. Kids can be so cruel. It's great that you were able to get them for both your girls.

  2. Oh Nancy, they are def expensive. Levi may be getting them next year. Glad Autumn is on her way to gorgeous teeth. Those poor boys are going to regret teasing her when she won't give them the time of day.
