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!

This Is Often What We Dream Of

I confess. THIS. This moment in time. This having to “shelter-in-place.” This being “forced” to be at home gig. This clearing of the calendar – a blank slate. This is often what we dream of. And now we are living in it. When I was taking a walk, I realized the monumental moment this really…

Resting In My Arms

The past few weeks have been a bit of a new journey for us, though they shouldn’t have come by surprise. As Dan and I have been busy going through our items, taking things off walls we no longer need, purging of toys when Mazy is not around, we thought we were safe. We didn’t…

Don’t Let Busyness Steal Your Life

Nights at home are pretty rare for us. Being in youth ministry, much like how teenagers are night owls, the majority of ministry happens at night too. I would love to say that I have the “night owl” gene in me yet, but unfortunately I don’t think it ever was. Especially now. I have been…

If you live in Michigan, you’ll be the first to admit that it was an interesting week weather-wise, but an exciting one at that (depends how you see it, I suppose). Winter has FINALLY arrived and the Sterk household couldn’t be more excited! Here’s why… Mazy received some cross-country skiis from her cousins quite awhile…

This past week, well, we have obsessedly (yes, I created a new word), watched the Olympics! We have stepped outside to enjoy the nice weather this week too, but when we can, we watch the world come together for these few weeks, and for the most part, put aside our differences, which we love! Here’s…

Week 16 – Things Are Moving Along!

This is the difference one month makes! Comparison of Week 12 and Week 16! So what does pregnancy look like right now for Kristin? Well, it looks like I am pregnant that is for sure! The precious students at the school I work at, are starting to ask questions, ask their parents, and I have…
