Sawyer Eugene Kuntz

Thank you Lord for blessing his family with another blessing and gift from above!

 

Sawyer and Zoe

are only 6 weeks and 2 days apart!

Some snippets from our week...

 

Finding joy in our everyday life...

If you have not read the book, I highly recommend it! I only get to read a paragraph, a page at the most at one time, but its so inspiring!! Ann Voskamp, wrote "One Thousand Gifts". I promise it will bless your soul and change your life!

Being thankful...

 

 

For the Fourth of July...

Our freedom in this country to worship Jesus Christ!

Also Zoe's turned 5 wks. old and we had our 5th anniversary!

So we thank the Lord for our marriage and the blessing of being married to my best friend!

 

 

Sophia enjoyed the socializing and food! A daughter after my very own heart!

Thank you Lord for her part in our family! She is a blessing straight from heaven!

 

Thankful for our feathered friends who enjoy their meals right outside the living room window!

 

Thankful for baby grins and coos, that melt a Mama's heart!

 

Look at those beautiful eyes!

Loving the fact that she is becoming more and more alert to whats happening around her,

but sorta sad my newborn is gone:(

 

Thankful for big Sis love! Another moment that melts Mama's heart is when Sophia pulls up her little purple stool and has a talking session with Zoe and Zoe just coos and smiles at her in adoration!

 

Sorry about the kink in your neck... not sure how to flip it!

 

Thankful for family favorite recipes...

Thought I would share our yummys with you!

( I do not add all the sugar that it calls for, but its your cobbler, your choice:)

 

I love to come up with a new mixture of fruit to try!

Thankful for a giving-very kind hearted-Mother-in-law,

she shared some of her fresh out of the garden raspberries with us, and then I added some blueberries.

 

Its just when you make your cobbler, don't forget the baking powder!

You should see more cake then this, ours is all on the bottom. Thankful it was still good!

I considered not posting this, but you know I shouldn't post all the good looking perfect pictures, cause that's not our life at all! The real me, is forgetting to put something in a recipe!

 

As you can see, it was still yummy!

Hope you all have a good week and see how many things you can find to be thankful for, and remember to thank Him for he is worthy of our thankfulness!

Wheat Harvest 2013

 

We do not have very much wheat to run, ( only took us the afternoon) but it was so fun and pretty! I love wheat for a couple reasons,

#1. It looks so pretty as it ripens and waves in the breeze!

#2. It reminds me of Kansas, that is where some of our loved ones live! And we miss them!

Suzy loves Sophia! She is the perfect height to lick!

Mama thinks its totally nasty, Sophia thinks its funny!

 

Last but not least... time with Grandma is time we treasure!

 

A song on my counter and in my heart

 

These thoughts have been running though my mind and heart this week. Thoughts of worshiping Christ all though the day and in every moment of my day! Maybe more so since the birth of our second child. It seems the last 3 weeks since she has arrived, well lets just say my eyes have been burning with the lack of sleep! (yawn) I am not complaining in the least, she is so precious and I value my time with her even if it is at ten, and two, and two-thirty, and four-thirty, and six and then finally I just stay up at seven-thirty! But I just get so tired all day and I don't feel like my mind is alive any more. Some days I can't even make a complete sentence make since! But still I can feel the Lord pulling me into a never ending time of worship with Him. Telling me that He and I are doing this day together, He is helping me get though each job and each time I discipline my toddler! He is always by my side! I may not have a moment to sit and study His Word, but if I can hum a song or just read the words, then I am in worship with Jesus! I am thinking on thoughts of Heaven and then my earthly problems don't seem so major! When I feel the lack of joy, and worship in my life I always wonder if my driveway is doing the praising of His holy name instead. For it says if we fail to praise Him, then the rocks will! (can't find the verse:( So my goal is to praise Him every moment! 
 
 

Zoe Michal Kuntz

         Our newest blessing... in the tiny perfect form of a baby daughter! Our precious Zoe, feels like she has been in our family forever! Big sister loves her and picks on her by pulling her toes and taking her paci! We are adjusting to the life of two beautiful girls! May the Lord give us the wisdom and strength to raise them for His glory!
