So thankful for a wonderful week to celebrate Thanksgiving! Not going to lie, I didn’t really take many pictures because we were just enjoying our time with our families! Nothing earth-shattering happened with the Sterks this week, but here’s a little glimpse at what it looked like!

Mazy and I got all decked out for the Michigan vs. Ohio State! I’d rather not talk about the game, but here we are in our matching Michigan Heart Hero shirts!

Dan took Mazy hunting for the first time and needless to say, she LOVED it! Her smile says it all!

Mazy came into the kitchen to show me her feet…this girl thinks of the craziest things to do, like putting rubber gloves on her feet like socks!

Our little hunter in Dan’s shirt and hat…

And for the record, I hear she’s got an EYE!

Snuggles…

This girl is getting into all things girly!

I love it when Mazy puts a stack of books on my lap and says “Read to me, Mommy!” Anytime, sweet girl!

One of her favorite books – Shine-A-Light book from Usborne:

I wanted to sew some new pillow covers for the pillows in the bay window there, and Mazy loves to help me go into “reverse.”

Today I celebrate another year of getting older! It’s been QUITE the year, but I can’t help but look back on my life and see God’s faithfulness in every aspect of my 35 years of life! To say that I have so much to be thankful for is an understatement! All glory goes to God!

Mazy’s Week In Pictures

Can I just say how much we love this phase of a baby’s life? I loved the newborn stage too for various reasons, but I have to say that it was very hard. Now having a child that has outgrown her acid reflux and is past her colicky stage, has made this journey all the…

Hello, WINTER! This past week was quite a shock to our bodies after being in warm Mexican weather all last week! We came home to LOTS of snow, a snow storm the next day that closed schools, ice that covered the roads the whole week, and frigid temps that made going outside unbearable at times….

When Your Daughter Teaches YOU Lessons

In parenting, we often consider ourselves the teacher, our children the students. Of course it should look like this, as we prepare our children to be children, all while preparing them to be adults one day. But what we often overlook is the fact that they are teaching us just as much about life. If…

An Outside Look

I realized that I have posted very few pictures of the outside of our new home! Even though we have done a lot of painting on the inside, there has also been much work done to the outside as well! We have cleared out brush, cut back the landscaping, and are working on the backyard….

Mazy Is 15 Months Old!

(Taking pictures of a 15 month old sure can be interesting! Not-so-perfect pictures is the beauty. The fact that not everything is perfect in life, but it’s capturing those not-so-perfect moments that make the moment perfect. It’s reality. And I LOVE it).
