Gunderson Adventures.... where all 6 of Us live life to the fullest!

Today marks the last day of summer for the Gunderson boys. Tomorrow Mr. Andrew will head off to Kindergarten and take on his official first day of school. As his mommy I am sad to see my big man head into the real world of human behavior and exposure of things I have not yet taught him.  God tells me that I must remember Andrew belongs to Him and that I must trust that He is watching over him. Andrew, I pray that you will never lose your confidence in who you are. Stand strong my first born and know that I am praying for you and am so proud of you. You will learn some hard life lessons along the way..... but know that I am right here waiting to hold you and love you through all the junk life throws your way. Thank you for a wonderful summer. I have enjoyed every moment of watching you play t-ball and go on endless tubing rides. You sure get fancy on the tube! I loved our many hiking adventures and bonfires sitting together. You were once again a great fisherman this summer and...

 Going to Lake Beauty Bible Camp was so much fun for our whole family! The boys really enjoyed climbing this rock tower and taking on a whole new experience in life. At first each of them were a bit unsure about it, but once Andrew and Micah got to the top with daddy they decided it was the best adventure ever!  I love this smile of Andrew once he came off the zip line. He just got done saying, "Mommy, that was awesome!!!" Caleb thought he should go ahead and give it a try since his big bros had done it. However, about half way up he panicked for daddy to get him down. The next picture is so funny to me! This is when Caleb decided he needed daddy to rescue him. "Help!!!" Gunderson Adventures....Living each day to the fullest:)

 The boys love playing with their cousins Callie and Joey and we all were so excited to catch up with the littlest cousin Sammy. It was so fun to see how much he had grown since Christmas!  The boys spent lots of time playing outside, being in the lake and running around the house laughing and being silly with their cousins. Callie and Joey always make us laugh and bring us so much joy. Just being with our family is such a special treat and the boys still talk about their time with them at Nana's house. One of the boys highlights over the weekend was going to the Twins game together! It was Caleb's first time going so he had fun going on lots of walks and escalator rides. After lots of popcorn, nachos and candy the boys thought we should definitely do this more often! The boys sure love their cousins Callie, Joey and Sammy! We are all so thankful for such fun memories shared at Nana and GGs this summer.... sad to see summer coming to an end.

 We spent a few days in Willmar MN with our nana and gg and had a blast being in the lake and hot tub! The weather was just perfect and the boys loved tubing, jumping off the boat and jet skiing!  Andrew and Micah are best of buds and just love exploring the water together. They were getting pretty fancy on the tube and trying not to fall off with GG's wild tubing rides! You could hear them laughing across the lake. Oh how the tricks on water are only beginning for us... Caleb loved going on the jet ski with GG and zooming fast! We had such a great time with our very special nana and gg! What a wonderful few days we had together of great memories with our little guys:)
