OPINION
KIRSCH, Judge.
Mark Boetsma and Michael Bocetsma, Co-Personal Representatives of the Estate of Terry Boetsma, appeal the trial court's ruling that denied their objection to Marie Boetsma's election to take against Terry's will. Co-Personal Representatives raise several issues on appeal, which we consolidate and restate as: whether Marie waived her statutory rights to a spousal allowance and opportunity to elect to take against the will of her deceased husband when she executed an antenuptial agreement that expressly waived those rights.
We reverse.
