Here comes the tooth fairy!
The tooth fairy has been busy at the Meyer house! Identical mirror twins Kember and Kadnce Meyer, left photo, both lost the same tooth on the same day recently. This was also their first tooth to
lose. A few days later, their sister Alexis Meyer, right photo, lost both of her front teeth on the same day as well! The girls are members of Lodge 187, Round Rock.
