Hi all! This past week seemed to go by pretty quickly, and of course it was hot. Monday Gwen had her first ever root canal and now proudly displays a silver tooth :-) Until the crown comes in...boy, do I feel old. I really did have such good teeth ....all I can say is Thank Goodness for numbing agents!!!! Although I was pretty sore afterwards. Tuesday Jim had presidency meeting and Wednesday Reagan had tumbling and Gwen had to do a late night airport run to get Kim. Thursday Jim was in Tucson and Gwen and the kids just passed the time with pool, library, and waiting for a candy order etc. Friday I don't really remember but Saturday Jim got up early and met his brothers to paint the outside of his parents' house in preparation for selling it. He was there most of the day and he really started having problems with his knee again. That day Gwen and the kids went grocery shopping - ugh, this is no easy task with a four year old that wants everything and looks at everything. Then we watched Reagan and Stockton while Cara and Steve finished preparing for their Lake Powell trip. So me and kids got in the pool for awhile and they all had a good time. That night we got a babysitter and took Jim's nephew and soon-to-be fiancee to dinner as payment for doing the painting at Lois and Cleiburns (he owns a painting business and has all the equipment). it was nice to get out and now it's Sunday and we finally finished our series "John Adams". It was very interesting and so much we didn't know about our founding fathers. We hope everyone is well and that you all have a great 4th of July weekend - be safe! Love, Jim Gwen Reagan and John
