Field Trip Day!!!

 I had a great morning with Andrew and his Kindergarten class at the Environmental Site!!!
 His friend Brady and Andrew were looking for tadpoles in the stream and we found a toad and lots of tadpoles!!!! So Fun!!!
We were exploring all the things in the stream together in buckets... What a fun morning spent with my Big school boy! So special to spend time just with him and his buddies! We ate a great lunch together and enjoyed the warm sunshine. Such a special day!

Wow how time flies! we are amazed that our little guy is already two. It seems like just yesterday that he was born and we were spending all of out time looking at him in his crib and playing with him on the floor. Now he is a real boy. Running around, kicking the football, cheering for touchdowns, and tackling his brother. Andrew brings us such joy as he is always laughing and smiling and thinking of new and creative ways to use all of his toys. We are all enjoying our fall, with trips to the cities and a Pastors retreat, jumping in to the leaves, and cool night walks we love this time of year. Take a look at these videos to see what we have been up to over the past few weeks.

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...
