These Kids!

I can't believe how adorable these kids of ours are. We love that Children's Discovery Academy does sibling photos so we can have images like these!

Jackson Makes the Cover Page

Jackson made the front page of KARE 11's website.  He wore his Hunter jersey to school today since Torii Hunter was resigned with the MN Twins!

Addie Dislikes: Practicing her spelling words, getting out of bed and being cold.

Shared love of running

Jackson has really started to appreciate the joy that comes from challenging yourself. He's now done two 5ks and is looking to do more. This weekend he joined me at the Boo Run Run 5K at Harriet Island. We had such a great time and loved going for breakfast at Perkins in our twin racing shirts! 

Another runner in the family!

Jackson did his first 5K at the Maplewood Rec Run. Mom ran with him for what was supposed to be his first 3K however we missed the turnaround! Whoops! He was up for going the whole way though and ran non stop for the entire 3.1 miles! He finished in 33:03.
