I have just a few pics from this past week. We had a little birthday party for Mazy, took some 1 year pictures, and some other fun ones, that I am excited to share with you soon! Until then…

Mazy doesn’t ever like to sit “normal” in a chair – feet up on the table. Everytime.

This is the story of Mazy’s life – holding her dog and watching a dog video! A great alternative to not have to own a dog!

On Thursday, we went to Williams Arena in Minneapolis to watch the Central Minnesota Christian boys in the state tournament! I must say, she was the cutest bluejay fan there (if case you haven’t seen this pic on facebook yet)

A beautiful sight on the way home from the cities!

A little blurry, but Mazy is making sure her Buddy sleeps okay, by rocking him! She sure LOVES this little guy!

While Dan was away this weekend, Mazy and I had our own little date at Cherry Berry! She wasn’t quite sure at first, but she loved it after the second bite!

We took MANY a walks this past week, thanks to the beautiful weather God gave us! So thankful for a little girl who LOVES the outdoors!

Stay tuned for more fun pictures coming up!

Around The Home

It has been an exciting week at the Sterks! Mazy has been growing like crazy! She is scooting all over the house, took her first steps this week, started to drink whole milk, is getting rid of a few bottles and just doing sippys instead. Enjoying the beautiful weather here in Minnesota! Her attempts…

To The Person On The Other Side

I get it. Loud kids can drive people crazy sometimes. I used to have those same thoughts. When I was naive and in my 20s, I didn’t get it. I didn’t get that kids just acted up when you least expected them to and sometimes when it’s the least appropriate time. The other day I…

ThankFULL

ThankFULL. Our thankfulness to God is just overflowing. We could not be more thankful for the journey God has brought us on. Last year I wrote: Thanksgiving 2014: We pray unceasingly that this little girl will one day be put into our arms alive and well. We have so much to be thankful for as…

Around the Home + Heart Journey Update

Hard to believe that we only have 7 more weeks of school! It’s easy to believe this when the weather has been nice, but truly, to think we’ve made it the entire school year with school being open has been quite a gift. Something I try to never take for granted, knowing some schools have…

A Battle For Time

This is a battle that I feel everyone has fought in some way or another – the battle of time. Finding time to do what you want to be doing. Ensuring you aren’t spending too much time doing one thing, while neglecting another. Basically it’s that battle to make time for what’s important. But what…

Truly A Girl’s Best Friend

On Thursday, we had to put down our sweet golden retriever, Maggie. It was completely unexpected, as she was only 5 years old, but had felt like she had been with us for a lifetime. The few days prior, she had been sick, but we didn’t think much of it. I decided to just get…
