That Smile ...

Photo-A-Day #02841 Today Andy got fitted for Invisalign. Andy has been wanting braces/Invisalign for a long time and has not been happy with their smile. The breaking point was Andy's freshman photo. Andy had a simple smirk in the photo and when asked why they were not smiling Andy said that they hated their smile and their teeth. I looked into Invisalign that night. We got things going to get andy's teeth fixed up. And here is another image of Andy's smile. This is the smile of one who has to confront the fact that what they want is not going to happen despite best intentions. Andy was at their girlfriend's house helping to build an outdoor storage bin in exchange for the cardboard box that was used to ship it. Andy has been collecting cardboard for some project, not sure what the project is but something is being built.

Wildflowers Finally In Bloom ...

Photo-A-Day #02840 I planted a bunch of wildflowers in a mixture around the house and all through the Spring and Summer they did not bloom. Now after a first frost we have flowers on these giant wildflowers. No idea why.

Monster Bugs ...

Photo-A-Day #02839 Today Andy went to Attleboro Community Theater to work with the set crew to help do some building for The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. I got a really nice message from the person who is doing the set building. She was very happy with what Andy did to help.  On their way to the theater Andy picked up a Monster drink because the tab was a color that they did not already have in order to make another pop tab beetle. They are getting really good at these. Tonight I took Andy over to McDonalds for dinner. Allison was out with Colleen. It is always nice to have a little one on one time with Andy. If you wait long enough you get some good stories.

Jim Jefferies at The Vets ...

Photo-A-Day #02838 Tonight Allison and I went to see comedian Jim Jefferies at The Vets. It was a great show and we even got our seats upgraded when we got there. There weren't a ton of people so instead of being in the balcony we ended up in the mezzanine. We had a great view.

Andy's Messenger Bag ...

Photo-A-Day #02837 Eva came home last night and stayed for much of today. They had come home to pick up some costumes for the Connecticut Renaissance Faire this coming Sunday. It was nice to have Eva home even if it was a very brief amount of time. We went to lunch today with Allison before I had to head to work. Tonight Andy received a new messenger bag to bring around wherever they go. I love that Andy is going to be adorning this bag with all sorts of creative things.

More Andy Creations ...

Photo-A-Day #02836 Andy has put together a spell book to use at Dungeons and Dragons club. We ordered a blank notebook and then Andy covered it in some hot glue to spell out the work spells and add other decorations.

Bliss Stuff A Stanley ...

Photo-A-Day #02835 On Monday night Allison, Andy and I went to Bliss Dairy because they were doing Stuff a Stanley night where you pay $10 for 4 scoops of ice cream to put into any water bottle. We brought over three large water bottles and each got four scoops. I picked Oreo, Strawberry, Cookie Monster and Coffee Oreo. Got a few days out of this treat.
