The new uniform

Matts has decided that this is what he should be wearing; all day, everyday.  

We agree.

Last weekend, while at a neighbor's birthday party, Matts went long for a pass. 

 Long all the way into a cement retaining wall.  With his chin.  And his teeth.  

The good news is that jaws are remarkably hard to crack.  

The bad news is that teeth, while very hard, are not remarkably hard.  After a visit to the dentist with a sheared incisor and a split molar Matts is now scheduled for a root canal, crown and sealant.  

The really good news, that inspite of his broken teeth and bruised right metatarsals (a whole other story), Mattson got sprung from PT on Monday!

The awesomest news?  Since his split molar won't fall out for another 3 years and will need to withstand the wear and tear of childhood the crown he's getting is SILVER.
