Tiffany, It's your birthday, Happy Birthday Tiffany

Tiffany is 29 Years Old???? That means that I have been a mother for 29 years. Boy did that time go by fast. It seems like yesterday I was turning 29. Tiffany was the perfect baby. And just look at her, she was soooo beautiful. She was born with a head FULL of curly dark hair, and never lost it. (the hair, I mean) This is her on her blessing day. I had grown up with three brothers, and it was so much fun to have a baby girl. She was like a doll, and my mother and I had a ton of fun dressing her up.

This is Tiffany all grown up and with three children of her own. She is such a cute and wise mother, and I am so proud of her. She was such a fun daughter to raise, and the fun just continues on. Now she is not only my oldest daughter, but one of my best friends.

Brace Yourself

Three and a half years ago Cody got his braces on. And before that he spent about a year and a half doing abstactions/headgear/bumpers. It's been a long haul, but yesterday, it was all worth it!!! HE FINALLY GOT HIS BRACES OFF!!! I wish that we would have taken a picture on the day he got his braces on, but they hadn't invented blogs then. He looks so handsome. His orthodontist even said that he is going to but Cody's before and after model in his display case.
There has been a MAJOR improvement. Aside for the big bucks that he got from us, I'll bet that Dr. Heath is glad that he is finished with the Neumeyer family. He told me once that he has NEVER seen toothy problems quite like ours, (and he is an old guy) Our family presented him with a set of problems that he had never incountered before, but he has done a good job. All of the kids have turned out beautifully. As I was walking to the car after making the last payment, I was so happy. I thought, Gee I think I'll go but a new car!!

What do you think???

Like my dad would tell me everytime I was in pain from having my braces tightened,
"Its all in the cause of beauty"

I'm baaaaacckkk

16 YEAR OLD BOY IS NO LONGER ABLE TO WALK

Centerville- A 16 year old boy loses the use of his legs and is no longer able to walk. His parents, Rick and Linda said that this disability came on VERY suddenly, without any warning signs, and they are dumbfounded. "He was fine one day, and the next day his legs just wouldn't work" says his mother. "He has always been very fit, active in wrestling and football. He lifts weights and worked out everyday. He didn't even drink soda pop...he was a very healthy eater, so we just can't figure out what brought this on." reports his father. The boy, Cody, was seen walking all over town, especially with his friends, always having a good time. He never complained at all about his legs hurting. His family notes that he still has enough strength in his legs to walk around his home, and he can still work out, but when it comes to going to even nearby places such as his church house, which is only one block from his home, his legs just can't get him there. His mother commented that if things don't improve with him, they are going to make an appointment with his pediatrician. In spite of it all he seems to have a better than usual attitude. His family told reporters that the ironic thing is that this happened the very day that Cody got his drivers license.
