Florida part2

Woke up Sunday morning and took off for DisneyWorld!!
The weather was gorgeous on our traveling day so we stopped at a unique spot to have our picnic lunch. We were pretty sure we ate our lunch on someones backyard picnic tables! The tables were all leaning up on their side, so of course Kyle tipped a few over, and we sat down! So fun traveling and making silly memories together.
This is our balcony at DisneyWorld that overlooked the miniature golf course. This place was incredible. We stayed at the Wyndham Bonnet Creek Resort. The pools were beautiful with a pond in the center and many places to stay. Gorgeous!
Sunday night we ate at the ESPN restaurant on the Boardwalk in Disney. Great night to dress up a little, the boys looked so handsome.
Our ESPN punks!
After supper we walked around and enjoyed the evening as a family. It was fun to watch some of these entertainers come out and do tricks! Jake got picked first to help out in the show and did a great job! He was so cute!

Then Drew was on and had fun throwing these batons at the guy so he could do some juggling tricks!
Bubba also got picked to help out with some magic tricks and giggled the whole time he was up there! Super funny.
It was a great night laughing with our boys on the Boardwalk.
Before we left we ran out into the road to get a family pic! Great night.

                                                   Magic Kingdom Day1:
Getting to Magic Kingdom a whole hour before it even opened seemed crazy to most of our crew, until we got there. Man, we were so glad we gave ourselves the extra time to get ahead of the crowd and scoot into the park the moment they opened the doors. Grabbing our stroller and throwing our bags and cooler inside we were off to our 1st full day adventure at Magic Kingdom!
I think its funny that our very first ride we went on was the Little Mermaid Under the Sea ride! We all were a little clueless as to where we should head that first morning and since there was no line, we ran right in! Second ride of the day was the Dumbo ride!

It was a great morning exploring Tomorrowland.  The boys really enjoyed doing the Buzz LightYear ride and Space Mountain the most! Pirates of the Caribbean was also a great hit our 1st day. In the afternoon the boys watched and participated in a pirate show. They really liked that.
Here the boys are standing where the pirate show happened. The sun started getting really warm in the afternoon...
Drew was really excited to check out Tom Sawyer's Island. We had a lot of fun climbing around in here.


We also took a boat ride to see Huck Finn's Adventures. The boys really enjoyed this one too.
Kyle and I grabbed a quick pic while the boys were running around at Huck Finn. Such a special day as a family.
Kyle and Bubba ready for a ride!
Got to meet Buzz LightYear!
Pirates of the Caribbean!



Enjoyed Its a Small World After All ride at the end of our day...
The nighttime parade was awesome and a fun way to end our day.

  







It was an incredible 1st day at Magic Kingdom and we really loved it all! The parade and fireworks were a perfect ending to a very magical day.

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...
