Final week of September 💨
As we speed right through the month of September and into October there are a few highlights to mention before we wrap up. 1. Stillwater Log Run 10mile was a great race!!! I included this race as a final tuneup before Chicago in 2 weeks. Fantastic course and a great one to do before tapering for my goal race in Chicago. Will definitely go back! 2. Chicago!!! It’s countdown time!! My whole heart just bubbles with excitement for this race.❤️It will be so much fun to race and smile and enjoy my journey in the process. Heading out next Thursday! 3. Middle School Cross Country! Fun to cheer on the guys at their 1st cross country meet in Chippewa falls last week. They ran hard and enjoyed the experience. 4. Drew makes my heart so happy to see how hard he works. I’m so proud of him!! Running does not come easy for him, but you can see the fighter inside of him, and that’s ALL that matters. Nice race man! 5. Homecoming- one of our favorite fall traditions is going to the homecoming parade.
Week in Review!! 🍁
The weather change has been wonderful! We are all enjoying the warm sunshine! Great week that went by quick!☀️ 1. St Joe’s Catholic Church holds a 3on3 tournament every fall and the boys just love it!! Drew had fun setting up his team of playmaker friends and his best bud Preston. Total street ball in action!! 🏀 Caleb scooped up his buddies from school and they called their team, The Dunkers, wearing black tee shirts and basketball shorts. They lost 1 and won 2! Great day!! And lots of fun. 2. Jake has been loving 1st grade!! One of his favorite parts of the day is Science!! He comes home showing us all sorts of cool science experiments and we are all excited to check them out! So glad our little man is enjoying his school days. 3. 7on7 football is a weekly highlight for us. Drew and Micah enjoy playing every Tuesday and Thursday nights at Phelan park with their friends! Since the guys aren’t in tackle football, Micah is doing what he can with his broken left arm. 4. Art pics from sc
Week in Review-Top 5!
Kicking off the fall with a new weekly tradition of shouting out our top 5 BEST highlights of the week! So let’s get started- 1. Jman lost his 1st tooth!! This was a big deal for us and he was so proud! Now he enjoys putting a straw in the gap and drinking juice boxes a whole new way! Edit 2. I had so much fun teaching in Jake’s classroom yesterday. So blessed to be able to teach in his class and spend time with my little guy. I smile at how God always has the best plan in mind. Knowing I had to go back to work I grieved not being with my boys or having enough time to care for them the way I am used to. I have trusted God in this and He continues to remind me that He is faithful and He loves me more than I know!! In this season I am seeing God’s hand over and over! 3. I love helping out teachers, and as I put this poem up for Jake’s first grade teacher I felt God saying to me to keep my heart and mind open to teaching my own classroom again! Oh who knows...but it is fun to be in the c
Clara is a sweetie!!
We had so much fun meeting our new sweetie, Clara Gayle. She is so perfect to us!! And she makes 10 grandkids/cousins total for my side of the family. Enjoy these special pictures that we captured with our little lady! My heart just melts seeing how sweet the boys are with her. They each loved holding her and loving her up to pieces!💕💕 Clara Gayle, we welcome you with our love and snuggles and can’t wait to see you grow up and play with us!!!
Back to School Week in review📚
Super fun to get into the middle school and receive schedules for these middle school dudes. They loved trying out their combo and walking through their schedule and finding all their classes! It was a fun day with them and I think they are just stinkin’ handsome!! Drew by his 7th grade locker, Gold side this year. Micah by his 6th grade locker, Green side this year. The 1st day arrived a bit too quick for this momma this year but it looks like our little guys are happy and excited for the adventure that 4th and 1st grade bring!! They each had a fantastic day to report! I took a 1st day after school pic because the morning was so early! They too had a great day!! Success for Us. As the week continued I received some fun pics of the boys enjoying the 1st week of school. Jake was having the best time at gym playing hungry hungry hippo!! This is Caleb’s new 4th grade class!! Look at all those boys!😳 My sweet god daughter headed to kindergarten this week!💕Praying for Lila Kate to have a
