We took a group of 16 kids to Minnesota Youth Convention in Rochester this last weekend. It was encouraging to see them worshiping getting into the speakers. They loved the Tom Bach band and the comedians. Everyone behaved well and all went smoothly. Thank you all for your prayers and support. I think it was the best year yet!

First pregnancy education night
Info night with the girls. I met with 5 other friends from church who are also pregnant for dinner at the Brewhouse. After dinner we headed to a birthing options information night. There were booths and classes on all the many birthing options. There were midwives, and doulas, and BROCHURES GALORE! It was very informative and not too overwhelming. I got lucky and won a series of pregnancy yoga classes! They had classes on infant massage and home birth vs hospital and birth stories. Very fun!
applefest
We had a chance to go to the bayfield apple fest this weekend. We have been trying to go for the last couple of years and finally made it this year. It was so fun even though it was a little chilly. It was a beautiful fall drive to such a cute town. We sampled apple goodies and listened to a bluegrass band. My favorite was the grilled corn and luke liked the apple squares. I hope we can make it next year!

Artsy afternoon
We spent Sunday afternoon with the Olsons at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. Luke was in heaven. He loves history and looking at old things. We left him in the dust as he likes to read every word about every item. My favorite was a beautiful quilt, and a painting that looked just like a chalkboard with scribbles (click on picture to see other photos). We hope to go back soon!

little angel
Little Angel is finally here! She was born yesterday a little over 4 pounds. Parents Chad and Missy say she will remain in NICU for about a week. Doctors say Angel is healthy and Missy says she is feeling good. They hope she will be healthy enough to travel to Mayo with them for the rest of Missy's treatment. Keep them all in your prayers as they all continue to fight this disease!

Waiting
Do you ever feel like you are waiting. WAITING for tomorrow, waiting for the next thing...just waiting. I always feel like I am waiting. I think it is the part of me that likes to be PREPARED so I am not sure it is all that bad. I know they say that too many people go through life waiting for things to happen instead of making them happen! I don't think that is the case for me...at least I hope not. I am excited about today and waiting for where God brings us tomorrow!

tough competition
We hit up the Great Minnesota Get Together this year. It was the first time Luke had been there. We both had a blast. We got to see a calf being born and of course the endless wall of corn that all looked the same to us! We visited the baby piggies and the honeybees! I hope we can go back next year! Click on the photo to see more of the pics!
