Thankful

Thankful. I have no other words to describe our past week together. Kyle and I enjoyed the days spent at home with our boys doing small, simple things here in town. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with family and enjoyed a nice relaxing day with GG and Nana. I am so thankful for our simple life and our week spent with the ones we love so much. It was beyond special!
 Here is our family turkey pic!! It was fun to spend the evening before Thanksgiving day with our church family! So blessed!
 The fam showed up in time to watch the Vikes game and start up some holiday crafts with grandma and grandpa! Leona and Lila Kate were very busy making their snowmen. Love them to pieces!
 The ladies made these cute candles! Kaylee had so much fun and it was fun visiting together as we were crafting! I love spending time with all my sweet nieces, my girls!
 Here's the crew! Not all but a majority of them! Loved every minute with them!
 Eating turkey and being silly! Love cousin pics! It was a perfect day.
 Where is the snow for tree cutting?? Such a strange year for us going in our sweatshirts and tennis shoes on! Even Bailey came with us to see Santa and Mrs. Clause. Ready to begin the Christmas season!
 The trees at the tree farm are always so nice! Never takes us long to find the perfect tree and bring it home!


 Kyle puts the boys right to work and for the most part they don't mind. :) Micah is king to tradition and loves being together as a family. Drew does too but could maybe just pick up a pre-cut tree and be just fine. They are all so different!
 We all loved the hay ride! And of course the warm sunshine!

 Popcorn and hot cocoa is a must before heading home.
 We had a nice home day setting up the tree and watching the movie Elf at night. Micah and Jacob enjoyed helping Kyle with the lights!
 In the morning Nana and Gg came and we had a great day doing crafts, putting the ornaments on the tree, going for walks, a little shopping and playing games.

Thankful for family. It was a perfect Thanksgiving!

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
