Carter was covered by chocolate ice cream. Way to go, Uncle Bill!!

Maasjo's in Minnesota

Dustin and I decided to do something really fun for Dale's 60th B-day. We decided to gather up the Maasjo's and head to the cities. We stayed in the same hotel together, swam, ate, shopped, went to the Como Zoo and the highlight, a Twins game. The following posts will be designated to our fun-filled time.

June 19

June 19, 2012 is not as I had anticipated it looking one year ago today. Thankfully God will take care of us today and all of the days to come. We visited Sophie's grave for Father's Day, not what we thought we would be doing for our first Father's Day but still thankful we could go to her grave.
I could not have imagined the outcome of all we went through last June but we are still thankful we were able to have the time we had with our little Miss Sophie Lee. We love her every second of every day and know she is our daughter and she will always be apart of us. 

“If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together.. there is something you must always remember. you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. but the most important thing is, even if we're apart.. I'll always be with you.”

Cinderella

Oh Cinderella you are so wise and we are trying to keep dreaming!

A dream is a wish your heart makes when you're fast asleep. In dreams you will lose your heartaches. Whatever you wish for, you keep. Have faith in your dreams, and someday, your rainbow will come smiling through. No matter how your heart is grieving, if you keep on believing, the dream that you wish will come true. 

Happy Anniversary

June 14, 2003 is a special day for Bill and I. It is the day we were married!

Although it is still a little tricky to focus on happiness, I am very blessed to travel  this road with Bill. He is a wonderful man who lives and breaths 1 Corinthians 13: 4-7

⁴ Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. ⁵ It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. ⁶ Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. ⁷ It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

I am so thankful God has allowed us to continue to grow in our faith and in God's love together. 

Lake Weekend

Miss Morgan was as cute as ever!

Yes, that is Gus back at the lake! He was so good and did not do anything to be naughty or misbehave. The hard part of having him there is that you can not leave him alone or he barks. 

 I love these pictures of Bill, Gus and Carter. Cracks me up!

Carter was singing and doing a dance on the dock. He is always just having a good old time!

Brendan and Bill were out snorkeling. They seemed to really enjoy themselves. I am amazed at Brendan's swimming abilities, he sure has improved!

As soon as we walked in the door, the dogs jumped up on the couch and fell fast asleep. They were so exhausted after their time at the lake!
