Rose colored glasses.......

Well, this was a big weekend for us! Chris has had the same pair of glasses for 4-7 years and it was time for an upgrade (due to a new rx). We had been wanting to go and look for some, but never did. Last week we finally went into America's Best and within 30 minutes we had purchased these babies (you have to understand that chris is a brown and therefore does not make purchases on a whim, only after comparing and studying, so I was shocked when he said, "Should we just get them?"). Chris is practically blind, so a thicker frame was the way to go, the lenses still stick out beyound the frame if you can believe it! I think they look great on him, I have to keep reassuring him that they suit him well. What do you think, does he look like a future neurologist in these?
I also got a new rx for my glasses (our future children will be blind with these genes), but kept the same frame. If you are wondering why every picture of me on this blog includes my glasses, it is because for the past 8 months I have had issues with an allergy to who knows what (contacts, saline, my fingers). I have been to the eye doctor at least 4 times and I still end up with gross, hideous pink eyes. I have definatly taken contacts for granted all these years. Oh, how I miss them so! If you have an suggestions, I'll take them.

You have made an excellent choice. They look really good! And linz...what's happening with your eyes? I had a similar problem after I got back from Romania. I kept trying to use contacts but my eyes freaked out every time. I wore my glasses for months! It finally went away though. I hope yours gets better soon!
