Micah's 9th Birthday!

Micah turned 9 years old on March 5th!
I'm convinced that these boys keep getting older but Kyle and I stay the same age, right? :)
Oh man, time is really flying by these days!!
Micah's BIG present from the G6 was a new bike!!! He somehow "lost" his last one so he needed a replacement to do some biking with us this summer! You're all set Micah man!!
We had a super fun afternoon celebrating him with some of his school buddies. These boys make Kyle and I laugh because you can tell they all hang out together at school/ recess. They knew exactly what they wanted to do together... a little football and basketball action. But first....PIZZA!!!
It was so fun to watch Micah hanging out with his buddies being his normal, goofy self that we all love about him. His friends all really enjoy Micah's personality and spunkiness to life, fun to see.

Switched over to do a bit of swimming together!
The boys had fun catching the football in the air while jumping off the diving board.  And the lifeguards seemed cool with this! Micah's lucky day!

After swimming, Micah enjoyed opening his gifts and having cake with his friends and brothers.
Footballs for gifts...perfect!

We are so thankful Micah has made such a great group of friends here in Menomonie. They are all such great boys with awesome attitudes! We had such a great time celebrating Micah at the field house!
Micah's family party was lots of fun too. It was such a beautiful sunny day to celebrate!
Micah wanted to open his presents outside because it was so nice out. Love his smile in the sunshine! I think he's looking so old in this picture.
Grandpa made a great baseball cake for Micah! Always the best.
Great smile birthday boy!

Micah loved playing football outside with his dad, uncle Ben and cousins in the afternoon. It is always so special to hang out and celebrate with family.
Happy 9th Birthday Micah!!! We love you!!!

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...
