Thanksgiving is always such a special time for us. I feel it’s cliche to say that we are thankful for all of the many blessings, family, and friends that he has given us, but we truly are. We were able to spend our Thanksgiving with family and now having a child, we are realizing how much she has changed since the last time we were in Michigan! Kids sure grow up fast (I know, another cliche saying!)

I did not take as many pictures as I had hoped, but lets just say we spent our time catching up with family. We did do a little black Friday shopping, but I wouldn’t say anything crazy. Most of all, we are just thankful to have families that love us so.

Hello photo dump! This past week absolutely flew by, which it seems to always happen after getting back from vacation the week before, but also getting prepared for school for Mazy, and I also started a new job at the local Christian school, doing after school care! Lots to learn, lots to do, and lots…

Back to real life! We spent this past week up at Secord Lake near Gladwin, MI, vacationing with my family! It’s something we do yearly and every year, it just doesn’t not disappoint! I must say, it truly is a highlight of my year. We always have such an incredible time playing games, hanging out…

Mazy Is 5 Months Old!

As you can tell – she LOVES her feet! That look… Love her look – “what in the world is this, mommy?” Stats:Well, we won’t have official stats again until her 6 month appointment, but all I have to say is that she is GROWING! She eats like crazy and…
