A little dental work (house call)


One of Ryan's fillings popped out several weeks ago. We had a little consult on Skype with my dad and I held a flashlight while Ryan attempted to show Dad the tooth with our computer camera. Dad sent us some temporary filling and that little dental tool that looks like Captain Hook's arm. Dad said that I would be able to fix it myself (just a temporary fix - till we get home for an office visit). I was a little nervous and one of my friends (and also a spouse), Sarah, is a dental hygienist. She came over this week and fixed Ryan's tooth and I got to be a dental assistant. Basically, I just held the flashlight and took pictures. :)

Ryan is good to go for the rest of the semester! It's great to have friends!
We had a "Goodbye" surprise party for Kyle & Andrea last night, so I'll post pictures from that later. It was tons of fun! They leave one week from tomorrow (Monday)...so this is our last week as neighbors! :(
Ryan and I will be home in 17 days and we just can't wait. We won't be home for long, but are just so thankful for the small break that is coming up!
