Perham Track Meet

Here E is doing the long jump-3.4

E is on the right end doing the sack race.

It was a bit more convenient for me to stick to the area E was in because Creed was all over the place. So, unfortunately, I missed all but one of my Micah's events. He ran the 80 meter, 100 meter and did 2 other events one of which was the long jump and I believe the other was the baseball throw or something like that.

Micah running the 80 meter dash. He is in the 2nd lane closest to the camera.

(forgive my footage)

It was fun and the weather was nice, a bit on the windy side and there was a sprinkle or two right before we left.

Emma and Zoe ended up with a first place in the wheel barrel competition and second in the 2 legged race. She worked hard that morning and then had her dance rehearsal that evening all without a nap. She did well, I was waiting for a melt down but it never did come, but then again, I left for the rest of the weekend :)

I went to Fargo and had a sleep over :) Whitney (left) graduated from NDSU and she will be getting married on June 12th. So it was kinda an all in one celebration time. I had such a great time, hanging out with and playing beach volleyball with a bunch of kids 10 years younger than me . Oh well, I blamed a bunch of my bad serves on my age, kids ect....

I love my girls! It is so hard to believe that my youth group girls are so grown up! I am so proud that we have gone from mentor to best friends. I am so blessed!

"Summer Wheels"

Micah has been dying for this day to come! Dad had told him that he would be getting him a lawn mower so that he could start making some summer money, well here it is! It is grampa's oldie, but it fits M perfectly and he loves being out there mowing right along with dad.

"We Take Over"

Emma is the short one in the middle front.

This will be her last dance until I can talk her back into it. She has her heart set on ice skating next year :(

Burn Intervals

WOW! These workouts are soo awesome! I am really enjoying them, they are seriously pushing me to the next level with my stength training.
With burn intervals she has us do cardio for about 90 seconds and then we do light weights for endurance. Talk about BURN!

Random shots by the kids...

Finale Piano Recital of the First Year

It is so awesome to see how far your kids have come in just one year. We knew that Micah would take to piano; but we had no idea that he would just run with it! He love it and you can tell.

Sunday night at our Church Micah had his first and finale piano recital. It was awesome. I was moved to tears with some of the pieces that were played. I am so excited for beautiful music like that to fill my home (not that the music I hear now isn't beautiful...you know what I mean!).

Micah was 3rd up and he played Freight Train, Raven's Call and a duet with his teacher Whitney How Great Thou Art and that is what you will hear being played below:
