It's HOT! This past week we celebrated Jim's birthday - we waited for a candy order and had our usual errand/work Monday. Reagan woke up very excited to decorate for daddy's birthday. Tuesday we waited for a candy order again and Wednesday was Reagan's tumbling. She was so proud to show us that she learned how to do a handstand up against the wall. And she has been intently watching and copying the gymnastic olympic tryouts! Thursday we went to the Dinosaur museum with the Thornley's. It was fun, but hot. that afternoon Gwen learned her chipped tooth would require a root canal - ouch! (my first one - I had such good teeth before kids came along!)Friday morning we watched one of Reagan's friends for a few hours. We got in the pool and had to get out when they about drowned each other by fighting over a toy. He sure knows how to push her buttons and she becomes a very emotional girl when he does. Saturday Jim helped Marta put up a shelf and Sunday was the normal day. Here's a funny story...Jaren (Jim's brother) was the only one working at the mortuary on Thursday during lunch when three young Christians walked in and asked if they could go in the back and "practice raising the dead"! He was tempted to bring out an empty urn and see what happened! Hope everyone had a good week and that mom is enjoying her vacation with the CA Hurdsmans.
