Happy New Year! Well, Jim and I can't even remember what happened this past week, and all we had was Martinelli's :-) Gwen was on call and Jim worked Tues/Wed/Fri. Wednesday Gwen took the kids to a different park and we rode the little train and other rides. We forgot our duck food so we'll have to go back. That night we had Grandma, Rachel, Harvey and Jaren's family over for pizza and a couple of games. It was fun and everyone was gone by 9:15 so we put the kids down. As we were reading in bed there was a huge boom outside our bedroom wall - Jim went to investigate and our neighbors were doing some serious fireworks. Guess Jim didn't get to sleep until 2 am. So our plan to be asleep for the new year didn't work out! Friday while Jim was at work the kids went to Cake's to make gingerbread houses (but out of sugar cookie dough). They loved doing it with the Thornley kids and ate plenty of candy!!! Saturday Gwen started to take down Christmas and Jim went to a gun show with Jace. That night we went to Jaren's house to celebrate Hailey's #2 birthday. It was fun and we even got in the jacuzzi. Other than that, it was a few trips to the park or school to ride bikes, visiting with neighbors and jumping on the awesome trampoline. Sunday we started our new church schedule (noon) and it's going to better for Jim's meeting schedule but will make for a long day. We hope everyone is well and that so far so good on the new year. Love, Jim Gwen Reagan and John
