Christmas 2014
Another wonderful Christmas with our boys!
Drew 9, Micah 7, Caleb 5, Jacob 3 
Christmas Eve!
We enjoyed the Christmas Eve service as a family @4:30p and staff supper following. So blessed by an incredible staff @ Cedarbrook to work with. It has become a fun tradition to meet for supper between services together as families.
When we got home the boys put a fun plate of cookies and carrots out for Santa and his reindeer! Plus milk! Kyle and I love the excitement the boys get as they anticipate that Santa will be coming to their house!
Daddy told the boys that present time begins @7a! The boys all waited in their rooms (even the little boys) until it was time and then snuggled on the couch! It's Christmas morning!!!
Stockings were opened first! Loved watching Jake open each gift so carefully.
Love our Micah morning smiles!
Jake and Daddy Christmas morning!
Our big trouble makers got nerf guns! Bring it boys!
It was such a fun morning just spending time the 6 of Us. Kyle and I made omelets and cinnamon rolls for breakfast and enjoyed playing with the boys and their new toys and games. Around noon we took off to the cities to see grandma and grandpa!
Since we already had Christmas with the whole gang last weekend, we saved our "family box" for the day of Christmas when we stopped in for our Christmas hugs and kisses. Lots of fun to eat more cookies and be together!

Grandma read the boys a new book they got for Christmas. So fun to stop in for some extra lovin' from grandma and grandpa! Next, we were off for Spicer to see our Nana and GG!
The boys love heading out to Spicer to spend time with Nana and GG and their cousins from Montana! When we got their we had appetizers and opened presents as a family. Kyle and I are always so glad our boys are so thankful for ALL their gifts. Love these Christmas smiles!


My sister-in-law and I finally got a picture together without the kids!! I love my time with Sara and our chance to catch up on each other. Always wish we lived closer to each other!
Our littlest guys in the bath tub!
Doing crafts with Nana! Love how she always has games and crafts planned for us to do together!
Our finished Gingerbread houses. The Reintsma's and Gunderson houses look incredible!
Love my time with my niece Callie! So fun to spend time together! Loved our ice skating time this year!
On the lake doing our thing!
Getting tough on the ice with mom!
Callie you rock! These boys loved their sled rides on the ice!
Another wonderful Christmas in Spicer! Lots of fun memories made together! Thankful for time with family and time together. The sun was bright and the ice skating was the best!! It was one Rockin' Christmas! Thank you Nana and GG for all you do to make Christmas so special!

 Christmas 2014!!!

Apparently Anonymous does not have much money or joy to come on someone else's blog, use filthy language, and hate on a middle class family during Christmas! The great news is that Jesus loves even Anonymous and forgives him/her. Happy Easter Anonymous and may you find joy in the waning days of this Lenten Season.

Grandmas Marathon- getting faster!!

3:00:38 Grandmas Marathon PR!! I’m still smiling…things are coming along nicely in my marathon expertise! Haha, Im just being silly but I really am learning more as I go-what works best for me, what doesn’t.  June 17th was a blast!! Cramps hit strong in my left calf around mile 18 and then my pace got more limited as I went, I was so scared I would pull something that I tried to find the balance of push and hold up! Super proud of this race and the battle I fought. The marathon is a beast and continues to challenge me! Games ON still for the CIM Marathon on December 3rd. 😁First up though, trails and less miles for me for awhile. My friend Leah is a true gem, someone I really enjoy sharing running miles and life with. Kyle, Micah and I enjoyed time with Leah’s family in Duluth. Her sister Sara and brother-in-law Mike made us feel so welcome and special!  I’ve been getting faster and continue to PR each year since my late 30s, in fact the last time I raced Grandmas Marathon I ran a 3:16

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

Friday came quick!😅

 These full days have gone by super fast this week. Teaching full days to students who need my full attention, getting over a cold this week, spending time with all the boys each night, and keeping up with Kyle’s busy church schedule has had us all feeling like it has been a quick week! Micah and Caleb had a tennis meeting this week to get ready for their spring season, Kyle and I are really excited to cheer them on soon! Maybe sooner with how warm our weather has been this winter. It’s been fun to hear that Micah has been at the courts a lot already with his buddies, praying he has a solid season ahead for his Junior year.  Micah will be 17yrs old next Tuesday! It’s so crazy to think I have an 18yr old, almost 17yr old, 15yr old, and 12yr old….I wish I could keep them little.❤️ Each season of life looks so different. I never imagined this season looking the way it does. Working full time was never a dream of mine with such a busy family. However, God is so BIG. He is so much better in
