February 2023

Lots of fun in February! Best of all was Joden's confirmation. So grateful that confirmation is that continuation of growing your relationship with God. We love the path Joden Is on and we sure hope he continues to walk with God, becoming closer to Him everyday!

Due to dance in Omaha on a Sunday, we decided to go hang with some family the Saturday prior. We enjoyed some sushi and hit up a few places for some cocktails.

First dance competition of the year was fun and the girls did great! Love how Reeve's friendship with Eleanor has grown through dance:)

Teambuilder fun and on the right is my student Perla who is doing her practicum in a high school art class. I really do love my job:)

All my friends are turning 40! I am grateful I was able to help this gem celebrate. Grateful that I have gotten to know Nicole and her family.

Joden applied for National Honor Society and was accepted. We are super proud of his hard work and are hopeful he continues on this path in high school!

Super Bowl party at our house with family and friends! We had a great time:)

Decided to try a color I normally would not, but one that is in my season. I have actually really loved it!

The kids' Christmas present was a memory. We skied at Snowy Range, stayed one night in Greeley with the Anderson's, and then had a cabin for several nights in Estes Park. We had such a great time and enjoyed getting to spend a few days with the Anderson's.

Show choir again this year for Joden. It was really fun to watch them. Choreography was pretty good, but in the gym it was hard to hear what they were saying. Super glad Joden does what he wants and doesn't worry a whole lot who might be there.

Joden also was a manager for the first ever girls wrestling team. He really enjoyed it!

Reeve missed the first volleyball tournament due to dance. This was their second tournament and they got first in the silver bracket. Looking forward to seeing them hopefully get more aggressive as they go!

A part of confirmation was that all of the kids had to read a faith statement that addressed if you were asked who Jesus is, what would you say. All of the kids did great and I love how brave they all were to speak in front of a large group!

Joden has had lots of bloody noses, so we tried some acupuncture with light therapy. Hopeful that this helps out! We sure do love Dr. G in Grand Island:)

January 2023

January often seems like a long month, but it was a good one!

Date with dad to the movie:)

Makeup choir concert that had gotten cancelled due to weather.

Got to cheer on our niece Delayna:)

Dance showcase!

Dance makeup is intense!

Food is one of my love languages and I love making tasty meals that are healthy!

Joden got to go to GISH for choir to do a clinic with the high schoolers! It is surreal to think he will start high school next year.

Love finding fun activities to do with my students:)

From wrestling to hunting!

Basketball in Lincoln so we met family for some beers!

Deer weekend for the guys so got to hang out with my sister in laws!

We are making some gains this season! Proud of these girls. We have picked up some medals this year and it feels sooooooo good:)

My kids would have sleepovers almost every night I feel like...this one with Ellie involved a fort:)

December 2022

December included some of my favorite things--friends, family, and watching my kids do what they love!

Basketball is in full swing! I sure do enjoy coaching Reeve, but it definitely adds some grey hairs to my head. We don't win a lot, but we are working hard to keep getting better and better. Grateful for family coming to cheer us on.

Team dance Christmas party. One of the reasons you were very interested in team dance was because of all the fun they get to have. You have definitely enjoyed it so far:)

Enjoyed a small gathering at my house over break. We made puppy chow with chocolate complete and enjoyed each other's company:)

A couple birthday parties this month-my dear friend's 40th birthday and my niece Liv turned 5:)

Christmas choir concert for Reeve! They did awesome:)

Family photos turned out great!

Wrestling ended with a 3rd place medal and a lot of excitement of what the future might hold. He is loving it and we did enjoy watching him! Proud parents for sure.

Mike and I did a shred before the holidays and it felt so good! Love doing life with him:)

Holiday fun with Joden! Dress up day at school and we went on a date to Miracle on 34th Street. It was a good show and I sure enjoyed spending time with Joden!
