School Days Begin!!! Drew 3rd grade, Micah 2nd grade, Caleb Kindergarten These boys are excited to meet their teachers, connect w friends again and share Jesus with everyone they know! The boys talk a lot about how they can help other kids around them feel loved and cared for. We love hearing them talk about the ways they reach out to their peers at school. So proud of them! Its a big year for Caleb this year heading off to Kindergarten. Going to take both mommy and Caleb time to adjust! This fall, Micah and Caleb joined soccer and Drew started flag football. All the boys are really enjoying their Saturday morning sport! Even Jake is getting in on the fun and has chosen soccer as his fall choice. Thankfully the coach is great about letting Jake be apart of the warm up time with the team! We are off to a great start this fall and again the days and weeks are already flying by!! Enjoying each day with these boys.

Summer 2014 Our summer was packed with so many wonderful memories as a family. We were all shocked when summer came to an end because it went by sooo fast! I haven't even blogged much because I have been soaking up every minute with my guys! However, I decided I really needed to sit down and reflect on our summer a bit. When asking the boys about their top favorite summer memories they answered by saying being together as a family at the cabin fishing with grandpa and grandma, and going to the lake in Spicer spending time with Nana and GG! Kyle and I are so thankful to be raising boys to LOVE spending time with their family!! These guys LOVE being outside ALL day long!!!  I want to highlight our top favorite memory this summer. Going to the lake!! We took off 3 times this summer to the lake and each time we went was a bit different from each other. Here are all 3 trips and the special things we did that made each one a forever memory for us. 1. Going to the Lake the 6 of u...

Such a great day being together!!                                                                    July 4th!  A fun tradition we have made here in Menomonie is getting together with great friends and spending the entire day on the lake, enjoying a nice supper together, and then heading out on the lake to watch the fireworks. The weather was wonderful again and it was a great day on the water together!  Enjoying a great supper after a full day on the water! All the kids had a blast playing together!  One of our favorite...
