Wrapping up September!

 Today IS the final day of September so I wanted to throw out some fun things we’ve been up to in the last week as we say goodbye to another month! 

Football is ON around here and Micah had his first football last week! Fun to cheer for them as it was their first “padded” game! They all look so big with their full gear on! Micah of course is the cutest out there in my mind!😉 #67 is Dynamite!


Drew also played 2 games this past week- 1st game in Hudson freshmen, 2nd game at home against Hudson sophomore team. Drew’s freshmen football team got combined with the sophomores this year due to the amount of COVID cases and students sent home. These pics were taken on live stream in Hudson! Drew is lovin’ it and is playing really well. He’s #59!!

Last Saturday I took on 26.2 with my friend Mandy, supporting her to complete her EC virtual marathon. Tackled it in 3:30 feelin’ great! Fun morning with friends chatting and doing what I love! 🏃‍♀️ 
Fun day in the cities celebrating fall birthday parties last weekend, I always love watching the guys hang out together. Glad we could all get together!
Jake will soon be 9!😀
Our fall birthday crew! 
Hanging out at grandma and grandpas, one of our favorite spots to relax!
The girls playing, Clara is loving special time with Kaylee💛
Subbing in September has been a bit overwhelming to add to the mix of things for me. I’m handling the balance overall very well but it does make life a handful at times! I’m taking it one day at a time and enjoying the blessings God has put around me each day. Thankful for good health this month for our family, a strong marriage, and time in Gods word keeping me grounded on His promises everyday!
My favorite September verse is Psalm 27:1
The Lord is my light and my salvation- whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life- of whom shall I be afraid?

October 2020, see you tomorrow!❤️

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

Image
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

Wolf River White Water Rafting Youth Trip!

Image
We were able to start the tradition of taking the International Falls youth to the great Wolf River. We took a great group of kids who did not know what to expect and drove the 10 hours to the river. We spend 2 days rafting and then hit the road for home. The students and leaders had a great time navigating the rapids themselves, flipping a boat or two and of course the water falls were a huge hit. U had the opportunity to sit down at the camp fire and one day in our boat with some of the students who do not regularly come to our ministry and talk about the relationship with Christ. These discussions where by far the highlight of my trip, getting to encourage students in their faith and hear the testimony about how they came to know the Lord was just awesome. Our first night it rained more than i have ever seen, and most of our tents stayed dry. But our two days on the river could not have been any better bright sun and 85 or so which is really hot for us from the far north. We had on
