What happens when you let boys free in a neighborhood with a swamp? They return home with a container full of newts and clothes covered with mud. They are cute…sort of.

Happy Sunday!  Don’t you just love a good rainbow?  This gem was taken after a storm in Northern Montana.  I came across the picture this week while organizing my photos. It reminds me that God made a promise.  The sun will come again, after the rain. My daughter is smiling again, after 2 weeks of [...]

This morning started with a doctor’s appointment for Missy.  She is healing quite nicely from the tonsillectomy.  Friday she can return to horse riding. I decided that despite her whining, we would return to schooling today.  She whined, she cried…but she learned, and I’m a happy momma! Just some highlights of today’s learning: We started [...]

My friend introduced me to planning meals monthly.  I’ve done this many times before, but not to this extent.  Inspired by her $400/month for family of five that includes three growing boys and 3 cats, I accepted her challenge of reducing my food budget by at least 25% this month! A fellow homeschool blogger, Erica, [...]

Great Adventure Revisited Part 2

085.jpg

When we first told our children they would be leaving their school, friends and home behind to travel with us full-time, they were all three upset.
