withdrawing funds from our retirment
Sorry, in the previous question, I forgot to mention that our retirement funds are in Roth IRA's. Does that make a difference, since the taxes were paid prior to investing?

Yes, it does make a difference. Money into ROTH IRA is after tax money that means you will not pay taxes when you withdraw from the account during retirement. You will still get a 1099-R and report it on tax return but it will not be a taxable income.
