Summer Updates

Hi friends and family! We hope this finds you having a great summer as well despite the crazy weather! It is hard for us to believe we are almost entering August! It feels like fall! Anyway, we thought we would send you a quick update before we leave town tomorrow for our churches annual camp weekend at Bluewater Covenant Camp.
Last week the boys and I headed south to the cities for a wonderful week with grandma and grandpa, nana and gg and other family and friends. I was shocked that all three boys did awesome in the car ride! What wonderful little men I have. Meanwhile Kyle took 38 students to CHIC in Tennessee during this time and had a great experience worshipping God, learning more about Christ, and learning how to apply it to their current relationship with Him. It is always so awesome to hear how many kids see things in their lives that need refining. Way cool to be apart of the lives of teenagers! Sadly however I did not take ANY pictures last week in the cities. I think I was enjoying myself so much that I didn't even bother with the camera! Anyway, we had fun hanging out with cousin Kaylee, going to the zoo and seeing Sparky, biking with grandma, doing crafts with nana and watching movies and eating popcorn with grandpa!

When we arrived home we were so excited to see daddy! I was relieved that we all made it home safely! During the weekend we went out to the lake and visited Jim and Mary Hummel at their home on Rainy Lake and enjoyed watching Micah go tubing!, going for a boat ride and having hotdogs by the lake! Kyle and I enjoyed being back together with the boys and each other. A whole week is a long time to be apart!

On Monday of this week Kyle and I drove down to Virginia for my post-pregnancy check-up. I was so glad to hear that I could be a FREE WOMAN again! Dr. Passal gave me the ok to "ease" back into running again, go swimming in lakes and pools, ride on the motorcycle :) , ride my bike, etc. I was so glad that I could at least get started living like normal again. Above is a picture of my first day on a walk/jog workout. I felt great!!!!
We will continue to keep you posted on our Family Camp adventures and Going to the Cities once more for our little nieces first birthday party.....enjoy your summer too :)

Hey anybody,

There are so many anti-spyware programs out there. Being a cheapskate, I desire to know, in the opinion of many geeks gathered here on this forum, what is the greatest free active anti-spyware program out there today?

Now, I am meeting a matter like that: when I run my old Webroot Spyware among the [url=http://www.best-anti-spyware.net]best anti spyware reviews[/url] on one computer (Windows XP) it operates well. If I run it on Another Machine (Windows 7) a window pops up asking me to opt the Windows directory. The two machines have different hardware. I don¡¯t know if this is a hardware problem or even a software issues. Any guy run across this issue and knows how to resolve?

Any other cheap price anti-spyware programs are welcomed as well. Any advices?

Thanks beforehand.

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
