Visiting Nana in Denver!



We had a great time visiting Nana in Denver, Colorado! Kyle, Andrew and I loved the warm weather! It was in the 50s for most of our visit, which felt like a heat wave! It was so fun to tour Denver and take a peak at all Nana has been busy doing. Andrew and I enjoyed seeing the seminary where Nana goes to classes and studies. We also had fun seeing her apartment that was full of books and study supplies! Wow, are we proud of her! She is really doing well and loving the environment she is surrounded in.


As a bonus, we also had a chance to see GG (Grandpa) and play with him as well! Andrew had a great time playing with a few of his new toys he recieved with GG at the apartment. GG and Andrew always have fun laughing and playing together.


During our visit, Kyle and I participated in the Midwinter Conference held by our Covenant Church Denomination. We enjoyed worshipping and fellowshipping with other youth pastors and their wives and kids. This has always been such an encouraging time for Kyle and I to connect with others who have been called to serve Christ in youth ministry. Andrew loved dancing to the worship music and praising God with us! A lady came up to me while we were singing and said, "Someday we will all dance like your little boy in heaven!" It brought tears to my eyes that Andrew was all over the place raising his hands and spinning around without a care who was looking. Wouldn't it be great if we could all dance like Andrew and praise God so freely? My encouragement to you is to dance for Jesus today, we don't have to wait until we are in heaven!


Andrew and I left with GG a few days earlier than Kyle for home. Kyle stayed and took some classes and came home later in the week. We had a great time visiting Nana and going to the Midwinter Conference. We are back to very cold weather here in the Falls. It has been well below zero for over a week now. We are taking this time to rest and relax together before our baby soon arrives in our home. Right now I am 36 weeks pregnant and moving slowly! Thank you for those who have been praying for me and this new creation inside of me. I am so thankful that baby #2 is staying in my tummy longer than our little Drew did. Though I am getting uncomfortable, I am so thankful for getting closer to full term. Please continue to pray for delivery and health to this baby. Keep checking our BLOG as we will update you with baby news soon!

Grandmas Marathon- getting faster!!

3:00:38 Grandmas Marathon PR!! I’m still smiling…things are coming along nicely in my marathon expertise! Haha, Im just being silly but I really am learning more as I go-what works best for me, what doesn’t.  June 17th was a blast!! Cramps hit strong in my left calf around mile 18 and then my pace got more limited as I went, I was so scared I would pull something that I tried to find the balance of push and hold up! Super proud of this race and the battle I fought. The marathon is a beast and continues to challenge me! Games ON still for the CIM Marathon on December 3rd. 😁First up though, trails and less miles for me for awhile. My friend Leah is a true gem, someone I really enjoy sharing running miles and life with. Kyle, Micah and I enjoyed time with Leah’s family in Duluth. Her sister Sara and brother-in-law Mike made us feel so welcome and special!  I’ve been getting faster and continue to PR each year since my late 30s, in fact the last time I raced Grandmas Marathon I ran a 3:16

Getting better and getting ready to go home!

Hey There! We thank all of you so much for all of your prayer support through this entire process. Go sure had His hand in this from the beginning. Anna and Micah are both doing just great. Yesterday was a hard day for Anna, She was very tired and had a hard time as the Doctors began to take her off of some of the pain meds she was not feeling good. She began to get a high temp,but that was all taken care of by early in the night and she slept great. She will be again trying to get of the IV pain meds and move to pills, if this goes well today we will be on our way home to see Drew tomorrow. Anna and I are both really loving the calm personality that God gave to little Micah as we know the high energy that Drew has waiting for us at home. We can't wait to see his little smile again and hear all of his animal noises and cars sounds. It will be so great to see the way that God grows these two boys only 17 months apart. It will be crazy and great all at the same time. Pray

Friday came quick!😅

 These full days have gone by super fast this week. Teaching full days to students who need my full attention, getting over a cold this week, spending time with all the boys each night, and keeping up with Kyle’s busy church schedule has had us all feeling like it has been a quick week! Micah and Caleb had a tennis meeting this week to get ready for their spring season, Kyle and I are really excited to cheer them on soon! Maybe sooner with how warm our weather has been this winter. It’s been fun to hear that Micah has been at the courts a lot already with his buddies, praying he has a solid season ahead for his Junior year.  Micah will be 17yrs old next Tuesday! It’s so crazy to think I have an 18yr old, almost 17yr old, 15yr old, and 12yr old….I wish I could keep them little.❤️ Each season of life looks so different. I never imagined this season looking the way it does. Working full time was never a dream of mine with such a busy family. However, God is so BIG. He is so much better in
