Webb Lake 2012

Another great week at Webb Lake!!! The boys are old enough now that they are remembering some of the fun traditions and memories we've made at this place and count down the days till we get to head out and spend a whole week relaxing with family!
 Grandpa was patient enough to take us all out fishing in the mornings and we loved every chance to not only spend time with him but to catch fish too! We all took turns in the fishing boat and I loved this shot of the "big" boys!

Caleb turned 3 years old while we were at the lake and we celebrated his party by having a bug hunt and eating dirt cake for dessert! These are our silly bug hunters!

One of the reasons going to the lake is so special to me is because we are able to spend quality and quantity time with our family. My grandparents are still able to join us and my boys have such an awesome relationship with them solely due to having the chance to play and be with them each year at the lake! I love this picture of grandpa Curt and Micah. The time that we are able to spend with them at the lake is something that means the world to me. Just precious:)

 Nothing like freezie pops at the beach with grandma!!! Grandma loves swimming and loves her boys!
 Caleb loved his new water goggles he got for his birthday!
 Grandpa loves fishing with his boys at the lake! As the boys get older grandpa loves teaching them more serious techniques on how to be great fishermen! Anytime the boat was open, Andrew made sure to check if grandpa was ready to go fishing!
 Micah is getting more patient in the boat as he gets older! Way to go Micah!
 More beach time!

The boys loved taking turns sleeping together in these silly beds. We loved the floral bedding! Beautiful and sooo boy like!!!
Thanks to my family for making it another great week at the lake. Nothing fancy about it....just being together with those we love the most!

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...
