Merry Christmas!

I have this odd love of designing our own Christmas cards. For years I made our own out of scrapbook paper, a picture, and usually a little letter in it. I don’t really have the time to do so anymore during this stage of life, but I still like to design one using my fav photo editing program, PicMonkey. This year I wanted to have it reflect having a heart for Christ. Then I saw this saying somewhere, so I knew I had to incorporate it into our card somehow. This is what I came up with. So…

Merry Christmas from The Sterks!

We truly have so much to be thankful for – especially our Savior who gives us continual hope, when circumstances aren’t always easy. It is our Christ, our Living Hope, that we can cling to and ensure our hearts this season, rejoice!

One Step Closer With The Baby Room

The face of concentration! Dan had the chance to be Lego-man again (and this time it was legit)! Our dresser that we also ordered online came right before we left for Michigan for Christmas, so we had something to look forward to when we came home. I can’t take any credit for the assembly as…

When I first became pregnant, a common question asked is “are you going to breastfeed?” I often said that I would give it a try and see what happens. Really though, what I meant while screaming inside was “YES!” Breastfeeding is something that I…

This past week has been absolutely crazy, but filled nothing but good things! Last Sunday and Monday we made it public that we were moving, which brought a mix of emotions, but it felt incredibly good to be open and honest about what God was doing in our life! We have also been working on…
