We love summer and so does our daughter!

Before Mazy started to not feel so great, here is what our week looked like:

After getting home from vacation last weekend, I knew I had to get out and get some strawberries! Strawberries are one of Mazy’s favorite fruits, so I wanted to make sure to get her out to the patch! We lasted about 15-20 minutes, and was able to pick a bowl full, which was good enough for me!

Mazy is a people watcher, hence her not looking at the camera!

Brouwer Berries (BEST berries you will find), has a cute little farm as well, so I knew Mazy would love that part of our “berry” picking.

She wanted to climb in and pet the ducks in the worst way! This girl is not shy of anything it seems!

This just makes me laugh!

Can’t get enough of this girl! Words just do not do justice for my thankfulness for her!

My little side kick

Strawberries mean strawberry shortcake (my favorite)

Call me obsessed, but I printed the Olympic trials tv schedule because I will NOT miss a beat!

One of my favorite pictures of sweet Mazy. She asks to take baths multiple times a day, but sometimes her kiddie pool suffices. She would be the definition of a prune if I let her be in water as often as she asks!

A Few of the Good Things Going On

Hard to believe it is July already! With the summer flying by, it has made me think about all of the good things going on in our life… 1. We are so looking forward to our mission trip this coming week! Some may think that the only reason we are looking forward to it is because…

So I feel like I just said “Hello Fall” in a recent post, where this week I could’ve said “Hello Summer, Again!” This week was a surprise gift of warmth with cool nights, and everything summer and fall, mixed into one. All before it goes tumbling downhill in temperature :). Needless to say, we are…

Well, hello summer, AGAIN, here in Michigan! Never thought we’d see the 70s in November, but hey, why not? And why not decorate for Christmas while we are at it? It’s a year of weirdness, so when Mazy asked if we could decorate on November 2, I had really no reason or excuse to say…

I have a bunch of pictures to share from this week! I guess I felt the need to take a picture of every moment! We got a good snow storm this weekend, which made it feel like a snow globe in central MN this weekend! I hesitated my ability to make it out of the…

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…

2025 – A Year In Review

As I reflect on this past year, I can’t help but think of the song, “Another Year is Dawning”, an old hymn of long ago, back in 1874, to be exact. This song sums it up best, with the last line putting it all together – another year for Thee. This year has been a…
