One more day!!

Today is Tuesday.

Sister Wright's last full day with us.

It's a busy day also. We woke up and almost all of us had dentist appointments. Uncle Brad took our kids to the dentist and since we only brought up one vehicle, Uncle Spence took me, Jaylie (Mickey's cousin/my daughter) and Mickey to her dentist appointment. Since Mickey just got her braces off a couple weeks ago and we were on vacation last week, today was literally the only day she could go in for her dental work. Mickey got so much work done! They had to numb all 4 quadrants of her mouth. Poor girl could hardly talk and when she did it was slurred and slow. In true Mickey style she was able to laugh at herself though and kept us quite entertained! Haha. On a different note, Jaylie was able to be an assistant to the dentist and help work on her. The nurse told Mickey, "It's not every day you can say your best friend worked in your mouth." It was one of the highlights of the dentist appointment.  I felt bad Mickey had to undergo all of this work, but at the same time she needed it taken care of.

Today was supposed to be a day of fun doing whatever Mickey wanted but after her appointment she was so tired, we kind of took it easy. We did manage to go to Red Robin for lunch. FUNNY STORY: Mickey was still numb and her speech was slurred so when the waitress asked her what she would like to drink, Mickey said a water. Because of the slur, the waitress said, "Are you sure you want a drink, I think you'll end up wearing most of it. So, when she did bring out the water, she brought out a bib as well! It was cute! She did manage to get some of that water down. Just for the record, she also ate fries and pepperoni pizza slice and part of a Banzai Burger. She was SOOO hungry!

The other main thing Mickey wanted to do was Leatherby's for ice cream! It's her FAVORITE and if you know our family, we go every time we are up North and usually invite the whole family. NO JOKE. We are ice cream fanatics!! Tonight, we invited everyone and there was a great showing. It's always so fun to hang out and visit over ice cream!

Afterwards, most of the family went over to Aunt Julie and Uncle Ed's home to visit some more as this would be everyone's last chance to spend time with her before she leaves for the MTC. Uncle Spence came up with the idea that we should all gather in a circle and tell what we love about Mickey so we did! She is probably hands down the most admired person in our family. She is almost everyone's favorite person. She is certainly one of a kind and there were so many wonderful comments made to her. She also said some really nice things about us as well. I will treasure forever what she said about my family!

I know everyone would agree, we are so grateful to have Mickey in our lives! I hope she remembers how much she is loved by us.  ...love you so much, Mickey!!
