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

Kyle and I are enjoying all these little moments with our youngest Jake to the fullest extent because we know how fast time flies before this dude will be off to school with his brothers. Here are some fun pics of Jake making the most of each day~  On the first day of school for all the brothers, Jake and I celebrated by going preschool shopping and having Culver's for lunch. We talked the whole time and really dipped our french fries in lots and lots of ketchup!  Jake's 1st day was a success! He really liked that his backpack matched his new tennis shoes!  One of Jake and my favorite days together is Wednesdays. Jake LOVES story time at the library!! Most Wednesday mornings we are packed into this room and ready for Ms. Debbie to read fun stories and sing silly songs!  Jake especially loves big kid time when he gets to go with all the kids his age and do fun projects.  This day they made rainbows! Hard to believe this is maybe our last year of s...

Last weekend, the Gunderson guys had an incredible weekend enjoying all the things guys do when mommy leaves town! And now that no Gboys are wearing diapers, guy time was brought to a new level...  Friday afternoon the boys picked up all the supplies needed to make a "potato shooter"- a What?!?! Yep, a potato shooter. This thing is serious and shoots potatoes incredibly far!! Makes quite a BOOM too so you'd want to cover your ears if any of the Gboys try to show you their experiment. And I was told that hair spray is the best spray to shoot those potatoes the farthest~boyz  On Saturday, these guys raced around town doing as many sports as humanly possible. I can tell by these smiles they had an outstanding weekend!! Always a great day when starting out with powdered donuts and juice!  Saturday morning soccer for Caleb! Saturday morning flag football for Drew and Micah! One full morning followed by baseball tryouts for Drew and a soccer game for Micah that ...

It's been a crazy busy start to our fall season, but so far we are in full swing and the boys are loving it! Take a peak at all our smiles!  Jake has ventured to preschool this school year, and this week finally started going for the full time-9-11:15am, Tuesdays and Thursdays. His favorite things so far are playing outside with his friends and playing trucks. I think it sounds like SUCCESS! Our bubba man is just starting to feel the effects of going to school, playing soccer, starting up piano lessons and heading to Awana on Wednesday nights. This boy crashes after mommy and daddy kisses at night. Miss his smile during the school day... These 2boys keep us on our toes. They are NEVER TIRED (of course), and are pretty sure they go to bed way too early! At 8p on school nights, these 2 come up with ANYTHING to stay up a little bit longer-thirsty, saw a spider, have sore toes, too hot, need a hug...and the list goes on. Kyle and I are usually the most exhausted at the end ...

Its the first week back to school and that means this momma is back to running before the sun rises! Going to take me a few weeks to adjust to super early running again! In the dark I go!! I took a pic of my first morning out! Very rainy day for the 1st day of school! Thankful for all my school boys and so proud of them! Thankful also for their teachers this year!! Drew-4th grade Mrs. Labuda Micah-3rd grade Mrs. Schuster Caleb-1st grade Mr. T. Jake-Preschool @Our Saviors Lutheran Church I love this picture of Drew. He wrote this for me on the driveway one summer afternoon. You fill my heart with joy Drew. Thankful to be your mom. We had one awesome summer together.  School has begun! Back to it!!!

What a great summer with these 4!!! As I was looking back at all the fun things we did together, I found myself pretty teary because this time with them has been so special. Kyle and I feel blessed to have 4 boys who are an absolute blast to hang out with. And it is so fun for us to watch these boys grow in relationship with each other. Their personalities really compliment each other. Here is a spread of pics of many of the memories that represent Summer 2015! camping at temperance river state park all the boys loved bonfires...even daddy! chilly hiking but the scenery and rushing waterfalls made it worth it. a great week at webb lake with family...and each other.  playing together around the house. fun day in chippewa falls~splash pad and water park! 4 incredible trips to the cabin. love the shades! miniature golfing~ took a break from being in our swim suits. playing many hours in the open field~ most often football and baseball...
