About Us

Holland, MI, United States
Chris and I met through mutual friends Melissa and Andy Kuiper six years ago. I can honestly say that it was not love at first sight, but as time went on and I got to know Chris I realized that this was someone I wanted to get to know better. As we dated and got to know each other better it became apparent to me that Chris was someone who I loved and wanted to spend the rest of my life with. Chris and I were married June 11, 2005 and have been married for four years. In that time we have become the parents of two beautiful little boys. Simon Thomas, born August 3, 2007, is a very happy and energetic two year old. Baby Luke is a wonderful little baby born June 3, 2009. In the winter of 2008 Chris was offered a fantastic job with Sentry Insurance. He quickly excepted the job which has turned out to be his "dream" job. As a result of Chris starting this job we decided that after teaching first grade for 7 years that I would quit my job and stay at home with Simon and future children. Being at home is truly where my heart is and I am so thankful to be able to stay at home with Simon and Luke. Our family is truly blessed and we are very thankful for all we are given by God!

Wow! Time sure flies!


Please forgive me for being a total blog slacker! It is amazing how quickly time flies. Here we are in the middle of March and I have not updated my blog since January. Life was pretty uneventful for the months of January and February. We have all been blessed with good health. We had a couple of bouts of colds and Luke did have pneumonia and an ear infection a few weeks ago. Thankful he has recovered from that with no complications.
The boys continue to grow like weeds! Simon is a very busy 2 1/2 year old. I am continually astounded by how much his vocabulary has blossomed this past 2 months. He is quite the chatterbox! Simon is officially signed up for "3" school. He will be attending First Presbyterian in the fall. Needless to say we are beginning the process of potty training in our house!
Luke is 9 months and is crawling all over the place! He also pulls himself up on everything, thankfully he is not furniture cruising yet. I am not in a hurry to rush the walking thing! Luke is doing "so big", Patty cake, and he gives fives. He also is very generous at giving big open mouth kisses. They are the best!
Life in the Arendshorst home continues to be an adventure and we are so very blessed to have such wonderful children. We are looking forward to the promise of beautiful spring weather and many more adventures!
