Way to Go Bob!!!!

We are so proud of Bob. On Sunday he participated in his first triathlon with his son, Sean and daughter-in-law Michelle. He made it through a 500 meter swim, 13.4 mile bike ride and a 5K run in under two hours. Connor was amazed at watching all the people swimming. He had a great time cheering on his Grandpa.

The Great Banquet Weekend

I really need to make a diligent effort to blog more frequently. I have been gone for the past few days so therefore I have a reason. I had the opportunity to attend the Great Banquet #50 this past weekend. The banquet is a weekend "retreat" where a group of women come together to listen to speakers and get to know Jesus better. It truly was a life changing weekend. I had such a great time. I met so many wonderful women and I learned so much about God's love for me. THANK YOU to everyone that helped with Connor this weekend, I'm so grateful I had the chance to go.

I came home so exhausted from the busy weekend that Sunday night we all crashed. So today after work we made up for it. I picked Connor up from daycare and we went home for a wagon ride and some relaxing time walking around the yard. We looked at flowers, picked dandelions, and grilled out. Connor even thought it would be good to lick a dandelion !

Also, I can't get over how much Connor looks like Chad in the picture of him sitting in the wagon.

Happy Birthday Robyn

This weekend flew by for us. Saturday was spent cleaning the house and trying to get Connor to take a nap. I really would like to know how Kids N' Fitness gets him to take a two hour nap. I never get more than 45 minutes out of him. Thanks to Grandpa & Grandma Dean, Dale and I were able to attend the Superchick concert at Foursquare Church in Decatur. Superchick is a Christian rock band. They were very good, but the opening acts were less than desired for us. We have decided that we are old!! We sat, yes that is correct, sat at the back of the auditorium for a good portion of the opening acts. I never did care for rap, I can now say that it was never just the lyrics I didn't like. Christian rap is not any better, maybe cleaner, but not better!! All in all we had a very good time.





Sunday morning came very early with Connor waking up at 5:30. We visited Foursquare church and had a very good visit. The church service is different than what we are use to but the Holy Spirit is definitely there. Connor had a great time in the nursery. I believe we will be back for more visits. After a birthday lunch for Robyn, we went house hunting. Dale and I have been looking for a new house in a better school district. We found one in Mt. Zion that we are interested in, therefore the stress really begins!!! We will be praying that God helps us make the right decision, and not just a spontaneous one. I hope Robyn had a great birthday and that you all have a great week.

Just Getting Started

So I don't really have a clue about what I'm doing, but I'm going to try anyway. I have so much fun laughing and smiling while checking in with the Hedenberg family blog. I thought this might be a great way to share more photos with everyone!! If any one has tips just let me know.

Maybe someday my posts will be better :)


The newest thing in our house is that Connor, rather all of us, have started potty training. We haven't had great luck, but Connor will sit on the potty to listen to some stories. I'm a little concerned he will get upset when he does finally succeed because the royal chair sounds music as a reward. I know he will someday torture me for posting a picture of him on the potty on the world wide web, but hey, I'm just a very proud mommy!!
