Micah Robert Gunderson is HERE!





Well I guess the Gunderson Babies do not want to come without their own unique story. We would like you all to meet our new little boy Micah Robert Gunderson. Micah came into the world on Monday March 5th at 8:21 AM. There is a very long and interesting story that i will leave to tell you in person, but he was born in the city of Virginia, MN about 100 miles south of International Falls. About 2 hours after Kyle taking his night Quill to get ride of his clod Anna woke me up telling me that her water had broke. We took off and made a very quick 100 mile trip down and made it with plenty of time to spare. Once here we had about 4 hours of labor and only about 30 Min. of pushing things got interesting in a hurry, and Anna delivered our little Guy by Emergency C-section. It was a very hard time to sit in that room by myself not knowing if either of my family members would be OK, about 2 Min later my Dad walked through the door and gave me someone to listen to me a cry on his shoulder for his 3:30 hour trip he could not have come a t a better time for me. Shortly after we prayed the nurse let us peek our heads in to hear Micah's cry he was health and happy. Born 8 LB's 4Ounces, very big for his little mom. Mom did have some troubles and lost a lot of blood and need to have continuing care, she needed a blood transfusion and received 2 packets of blood to help bring her back up to low numbers, it took about 4 more hours for Anna and us to be united and for her to see more than just pic of her little Micah. She is now doing well and baby is eating great and sleeping, has great color and they are both recovering well. We would love to tell you the whole story but i would die trying to type it all. Please pray for Anna to continue to heal well and be able to recover fast. Andrew made it down today as well with the help of some friends from Church to see his little brother and he gave him his first of many kisses when the met. We will call you all very soon to talk, here are some pics. Also check out the blog in the next few days for more pics and news.


Thank you all for your prayers,

Kyle, Anna, Andrew, and Micah Gunderson

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 ...

Big Bro Twin Cities Champion/Little Sis Big Woods 1/2 Marathon Champion

My brother and I are the crazy runners in our family! We took on the Twin Cities Marathon challenge on October 7th and trained like mad to get ready for the event. We began the morning feeling great and ready to take on the challenge before us, yet not knowing only one of us would finish. Ben was taking on his first marathon and was looking forward to finishing and enjoying this wild adventure! I however have done a few of these already and was aimed to kick some butt in the process. So, different goals, but the same idea in mind-lets run the race for Christ. The race did not go as planned for me. The weather was extremely hot and humid and it totally took over my body. All I can really remember is thinking, "Wow it is really hot and I am really sweating!" With little to drink I passed out at mile 10 of the marathon! My time at that point was 1 hour 7 minutes..... on track for an amazing marathon. Truly discouraged I attempted to get back in the race to pass out AGAIN at mil...

Lately  I have been asked by many- “Now that you’ve accomplished one of your biggest goals, what’s next??” and to be honest I have been really soaking up my 2:58:01 marathon accomplishment and feeling extremely grateful my body felt so strong and healthy for that race. I will never take for granted a healthy body… many of you know my journey has included some pretty tough injuries along the way. So first, I really haven’t hurried to find a “next goal” but have sat in awe and thankfulness. All that to say I am a goal kinda girl and love a good challenge. So on Jan 1, 2024 I signed up to race the Javelina Jundred with some of my greatest running buddies! It will be my 2nd 100miler and this time will be held in Arizona (not Iowa) where it will be very hot. My goal tho will be to have a blast with running friends and finish the race- different then a road race goal….  I really love a good challenge!!  easy trail runs have started….and at the perfect time when the wild flowers...
