Hereβs the story : Garrettβs dad was an orthodontist. It was his theory that the sooner you pull out a wiggly baby tooth the straighter the big tooth can grow in. Garrett has never had braces and has very straight teeth so there may be truth to this. But Garrett would always hide his wiggly teeth because the fear of getting them yanked as soon as his dad found out. He even begged his dad to pull them out in his sleep because the scariest part was just the dreadful anticipation. His dad didnβt take the weird idea seriously. Well, now Garrett is a dad and when he proposed to strange idea to Cali he was all about it. Big sister Dorothy asked to do it and Cali was fine with it. When we found Cali asleep on his side with his mouth closed we thought THERES NO WAY. Well, we should know by now to NEVER DOUBT DOROTHY! !!SHE GOT IT!! But now, the final question : Was Cali really awake the whole time? Part 2 shares the rest of this moment.. @thebucketlistfamily

I SURPRISED JESS! Thanks to YOUR help! So hereβs the story : Jess is a HUGE @backstreetboys fan. For Christmas, I wanted to surprise her with tickets to their Valentineβs Day show. Was I trying to knock off 2 birds with 1 thoughtful stone?? Maaaybe ;) I looked at costs, they were pricey but within our frugal comfort zone, so I got flights and rallied a bunch of friends. But foolish me I waited to book the actual tickets last and a few days later the ticket prices almost doubled!! :(:(:( Before giving up I posted an Instagram story (while Jess was asleep) asking for any tips or advice. Thatβs when @gabyibarra and many of you recommended some company called @vibeepresents. Yalls saved the day!! For less than 1 ticket, Vibee does all inclusive packages that includes rooms and other perks. This is not a sponsored post..just a stoked grateful husband :) Thanks yalls for the tip! Vegas on valentines here we come! :):):) - Garrett
Hey Jess, remember 17 years ago when I married the most lovely human I have ever met? Happy Anniversary babe. Iβm grateful for our life together.. - G
