New Baby

Congratulations to our teacher, Mindy, and her husband, Ben, on the birth of their new baby, Elijah! What a precious gift from God! Elijah was born on Wednesday, September 26th, weighing 9 pounds, 8 ounces, the exact weight of his sister Elianna when she was born last August. We look forward to holding this new bundle of joy!

Cruisin'!

The night before school started, our dear friends Jerry and Dodie Solheim took us for a spin around town in their vintage cars. We were treated to Dairy Queen, a drive around the lake, and pizza back at the Solheim's house. Then we took out our instruments and jammed to a few songs. We all had so much fun! We are so blessed by wonderful friends like the Solheims.

Bemidji State Park

This summer we had the chance to play for a summer concert series at Bemidji State Park. It was a hot, but beautiful, day. Last summer, we played for a wedding on this very stage, so it was fun for us to play there again and not be so nervous!

In the picture above, we are playing a fiddle trio for the song "Faded Love."

Here, Amy is singing her solo for the song "Don't Neglect the Rose."


Mrs. Tingelstad took the next two pictures of us in the very same spot, one at the wedding last summer and one at our more recent performance.

Boy, time sure flies when you're having fun!

Fun with Family

A couple of weeks ago, our(Eliza and Katelyn's) family celebrated our grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary. It was a great time of golfing, playing special music in church Sunday morning, and spending some time at a resort! We all had so much fun together!

2 grandparents + 2 aunts + 3 uncles + 4 cousins = 11 family members on our mom's side (including us).

Still smiling after our annual family golf scramble!

The present from all of us to the couple was a handmade quilt with pictures of their graduation, wedding, kids, and grandkids.
