Love Being Mommy

As a little girl I used to dream of the day that I would get to be a real mommy. I remember bringing my baby dolls to "church" with me and telling my mom to not watch me play mommy and to not listen to me either! She still laughs to this day about those silly moments of me playing house.


Today, I am living the dream that I never thought would come! In fact, I am able to do this full time and call it my full time job too. Nothing in the world satisfies my life more than being a wife to an amazing husband who knew the desire of my heart the moment he met me and being a mommy to two incredible boys! God continues to watch over me and I love the way He always reminds me that He knows all that I need before I even kneel before Him to ask and seek his calling on my life. I thought teaching would be the road in which God was calling, but all along He knew that being a mommy was my ultimate dream, and today I am forever grateful. My heart is full of love for my Father in heaven and my family.

Here are some fun pictures of my boys:

Andrew and I love playing together while Micah is taking his morning nap! We are best of buddies!

How wonderful that you are able to do what your heart desires and that God has provided a way for you to do that. Being a mommy is wonderful and you have two handsome boys to show that. God Bless,

When I first met you, I instantly knew you would be a great mom! You are one of the most caring people I have ever met. I only wish I could call this my one and only job, maybe someday!

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

Image
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

Wolf River White Water Rafting Youth Trip!

Image
We were able to start the tradition of taking the International Falls youth to the great Wolf River. We took a great group of kids who did not know what to expect and drove the 10 hours to the river. We spend 2 days rafting and then hit the road for home. The students and leaders had a great time navigating the rapids themselves, flipping a boat or two and of course the water falls were a huge hit. U had the opportunity to sit down at the camp fire and one day in our boat with some of the students who do not regularly come to our ministry and talk about the relationship with Christ. These discussions where by far the highlight of my trip, getting to encourage students in their faith and hear the testimony about how they came to know the Lord was just awesome. Our first night it rained more than i have ever seen, and most of our tents stayed dry. But our two days on the river could not have been any better bright sun and 85 or so which is really hot for us from the far north. We had on
