Day 3 RV trip! Niagara Falls

Friday

Lake Heron was gorgeous this morning! When I got back from a quick wake up run we all put our swim suits on and went swimming in Lake Heron #2 Great Lake and the water was super chilly and a really rocky bottom! So refreshing and crazy!! We ran to the hot showers after our swim before hopping in the RV. Today, day 3 is our Niagara Falls day!!! We could not wait to get there!
The day was perfect. I wish I could have held back time just to embrace the beauty of the falls and time with my family. No words to describe how perfect this day was. Hold on and soak in all the great photos from our day!

 Drew decided to grab a Subway sandwich at 8:30a on our way to Niagara! We all got a good laugh out of this since he ordered a spicy italian sandwich too!
 The rest of us enjoyed some Tim Hortons timbits and donuts!! Great start to the morning!

Niagara Falls! coolest day EVER!

 




 
Jake loves adventure with his family! There is no where he'd rather be then holding hands with his dad, kissing mommy, and laughing with his brothers! I love how Jake is growing into his own personality. He got easily tired and ran a bit of a fever on this vacation. Thankful he bounced right back into our Jman after good sleep and extra rest in the RV. He will always be my baby boy.





We loved going on Maid of the Mist wearing our blue ponchos and getting super close to the falls. Our smiles and sounds of excitement from the falls will always be with me!

We left in time to get back to our campsite to grill burgers and rest. It was nice to have the evening to spread out in our campsite, do some swimming and walk to the camp office for treats! It was also fun for Kyle and I to do some dreaming and brainstorming how we want to travel next summer with the boys during Kyle’s sabbatical.  We are loving this time as a family and look forward to more travel time together!


Drew was the great helper on this vacation. Always willing to do what needed to be done setting up chairs, getting food out, especially when asked.  We so enjoyed spending good quality time with him. We love his simple personality!

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
