Addi runs the Hillsboro 5k

Addi and her friend Riley raced the beautiful fall morning away and had a great time in her 2nd ever 5k. She walked the first 5k with her Mom this spring at the Fargo Marathon, since Mom had a bad leg at the time and has been waiting ever since to get the chance to actually RUN!!! Way to go Addi, you did great!

1st Day of Preschool

Adyn sure has been happy waking up lately. He likes going to preschool, but they don't have as many tractors as Nancy his daycare lady has so he drew a picture of a combine to pass the time.

It says John Deere Combine and it has a corn header on it.

Katja & Addi

Addi had a friend over to Nana's and boy did they have fun dressing up and running around the ranch.

First Day of School!

Addi has had her clothes for the first week of school laid out for over a week now. I hope that enthusiasm never dies! (thanks for the backpack Nana!!)

Adyn was a little jealous since he doesn't start preschool until next Tuesday, but he still had a good time watching his big sis get on the bus to school.


Mrs. Down's 4th grade classroom sure looks like it is going to be fun!
I can't believe Addi is going to be 10!!! Time sure flies.

Weekend Wedding

What a nice weekend for a wedding! Shandi and Jeremy's wedding was beautiful. We wish you the best!

It was nice to see Chris's family again. Although we were missing a few!
Addi had a great time time playing with her cousins. Justin and Addi spent hours in the pool as did Adyn.

Is that a big back pack or what!

Adyn just picked out his first back pack. It is his favorite color, blue, and looks a lot bigger on than it did in the store! He is all ready for preschool, which will begin on September 2nd. He will be attending every Tuesday and Thursday at the elementary school (right across the hall from Dad and big sister) and going to Nancy's on the other days.

That Nana!

Can you believe Nana put up her own birthday present! I think the weather vane looks awesome. Way to go, Nana!!
