We also made the trip to Minnesota. While there we went to a NRHEG ladies basketball game at Minnesota State University, Mankato with my parents. So fun to watch them play as they went on to win the State Title!





We also celebrated Mark's Birthday!

Happy Birthday Papa Joe!


My parents came down a few weeks ago. We celebrated his 54th birthday and went to everyone's basketball games! And by everyone I mean Caleb, Gracie, Micah, Reuben, and almost Hayden's (his was cancelled due to weather).  My parents even let us go out on a double date. Talk about courage. Thats 9 kids they are watching. Whew! Thank you! So Happy Birthday Dad! We are so blessed to have you part of our family. You are so fun to talk to and have so much great advice.
