Volleyball-Filled Weekend

October 27, 2013April 22, 2017

Yesterday we attended our first college volleyball game!

Not that we really ever have “former” youth group kids as they will ALWAYS be a part of our life, but one of our youth group girls who graduated last year, is playing for Bethel College. Her parents and Kari’s sister were heading out there and we have been wanting to go to a game, so this was perfect!

We headed to the cities to St. Thomas University and had a chance to watch Kari play volleyball for the first time (we were 6 months late to Minnesota to watch her play her senior year).

Going to sporting events is something Dan and I always enjoy doing (and I know I have said that many times). Being able to support people in what they love to do, we feel is very important.

We had a wonderful day of fun, laughter, and hanging out with some wonderful people!

We finished the night off by going to Cabela’s, which was fun! We had yet to go to that one, so it was a day of MANY firsts! We went through a lot of uncharted territory for us – gotta LOVE exploring Minnesota!

Friday night, we also watched the Central Minnesota Christian School girl’s volleyball team win and move on in the sub-sections (what we would call playoffs). It was a volleyball-filled weekend, but a fun weekend it has been!

We continue to enjoy experiencing new experiences and taking advantage of all that is going on out here in the state of Minnesota!

Leukemia Update

This is a picture of freedom! Thought it was time to give a little update… Yesterday I had a blood draw to see if I needed a blood transfusion and lo and behold, my white blood cell count is in the normal range again! The rest of my counts, such as my platelets and hemoglobin…

The Right Way is YOUR Way

As a parent, we all have to ask ourselves: When to start solid foods? Rice or oatmeal? When to introduce peanut butter and honey? Not to mention, diapering. Cloth or disposables? How tight? What brand? How often? And that’s just diapers! Then there are car seats. Which one? When to make the switch from back…

Weekend Festivities

It has been so nice being HOME! We have loved this week to just catch up. Since the beginning of June, we felt like each week we were preparing for the next week’s adventures, which meant being gone. This past week, we have been able to catch up on the things that we haven’t been…

Belize Bound

Tomorrow is the big day! As you can tell, Dan and I are extremely excited and humbled to go to Belize! We are both healthy thus far, so even more so, it makes going that much less worrisome. (BTW, thank you for the prayers!) And we continue to pray that it stays that way. We also pray…

Username and password, remembered. Log in. CLICK. It seems as if that isn’t something that really matters. But anytime I hit “LOG IN”, it opens up a space. A private space for me to type. A blank slate. Truth be told, I never thought I would blog. In fact, I thought it was only for the…
