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!

Around The Home

Hello, Spring! I never thought we would see 60 degree weather in Minnesota in February, but that we have! This past week has been absolutely gorgeous, which meant we spent a LOT of time outside when we could. Unfortunately Mazy came down with what we found out was only a nasty nasty cold after taking…

That One Thing

As I stated in the previous post, it has been a slower weekend. We tend to get a little antsy at times because we are quite used to the go-go-go mentality, but these past two days have been incredibly rejuvenating. We were reading our devotional that we are working through at dinnertime (Daily Light by…

2:15 AM

At 2:15am, I hear Mazy whimper from across the hallway. I squint to look at the clock, pat the end table next to me – can’t go anywhere without those glasses. I tip toe over to the clothes hook to find my house coat, as I quickly open her door and tell Mazy… Mommy’s here!…

It’s Really Okay

I had all these grand ideas of how I was going to be the perfect stay-at-home-mom. As much as didn’t/don’t want to admit it, we go into parenthood with expectations. I made the mistake of telling Dan that I didn’t really have any expectations, but the more I thought about it, I so did! I…

When You Can’t Let Go

I am sure you’ve been there. The day you put away that last piece of newborn clothing, may have felt like you were laying to rest the best days of your life. The time you had to send your sweet child off to school on the bus, felt like you were saying goodbye forever. Then…

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….
