XC part 2 (october 2017)

I'm not really sure why I didn't include this with the last XC post ... I guess because this was at the very end of the season ... but here's the boys' district meet (last of the year).

Their group is the small little pocket of lime green towards the middle of the crowd.

I must have just missed Porter, but here's James (follow the arrow) starting to make an appearance about midway through the course.

There he goes!

And then here comes Porter (circled in red) to the finish!!

Crossing the finish line ... great work Porter!!

Before long James was in sight finishing strong!!

And also making his way across the finish line.

Tough runner bros;)

And last but not least, with the gramps who happened to be in town for the weekend.

Seriously great work guys!! XC is one sport I'm not sure I would have ever had the patience or endurance for. Definitely impressed by your dedication!

Baby Joseph

Another little miracle, Joseph Benjamin Dueck , arrived in our family September 5 th , 2010 at 3:23pm. Of course, every mom describes the birth of her children as miraculous--I know, I feel that way about each of mine--but in this case Joseph's healthy arrival really did turn out to be something of a miracle. But before I get into the story, I have some catching up to do since I haven't blogged at all about this pregnancy. So ... Here's me on the first day of school which was just two days before Joseph was born. Since I was taking pictures of the kids, James decided I needed one as well. I'm actually glad he did, because I had been meaning to get a picture of my baby "bump" for days if not weeks and hadn't gotten around to it. Of course, I thought I still had plenty of time to make it happen. And just very quickly, I have to throw out some highlights from this pregnancy which for some reason all have to do with Mae ... Mae telling me (during the first tri...
