Stellan LOVES the book Going On a Bear Hunt. We borrowed it from the library and he promptly memorized the whole thing. I ordered him his own copy. It’ll be here tomorrow, but it’s a surprise. I’m so excited for him. I even made him a bear hunt T-shirt when I found a clearance tee […]
Rodeo Bible Camp 2019
Liberty and Eden just finished Rodeo Bible Camp. I survived. Enjoyed the week with my younger kids, even. They played together like never before. Usually they venture off in groups of two or three, but the whole time the big girls were gone they all six played together. The net swing got more use than […]
Savings Accounts, VBS, and an Army of Six
School is finished. Finally. The last subject hung over Liberty and Eden, and in exchange, over me, for the last month. Ultimatums may have been issued regarding horses and books and phones and makeup. (You know, all the important things to teenaged girls.) One of those threats must have worked they finished. Hallelujah, they are […]
Review: Hey, Mama! Homeschool Planner for 2019/20
It’s been a while since I posted a review on here! I’ve continued to do reviews for the Old Schoolhouse’s website, but nothing on my blog. I was given the opportunity to review Hey, Mama! Homeschool Planner for 2019/20 Year by Gena Suarez for The Old Schoolhouse® and received a planner in exchange for an unbiased […]
Camping: Memorial Day 2019
Our campsite was flooded, so they gave us another. Turns out 90% of the campground was flooded and we were one of half a dozen campers in the whole campground. We swam ON the road of the flooded site we were supposed to be on. The water was over even my head. It was crazy. […]
Run, Momma, Run.
First morning at the campsite had me outside in my pj’s, watching Stellan on his bike. He was over the moon about flat paved surfaces to ride on. He rode back and forth in front of the camper, and had strict instructions to turn around before the hill. The hill was steep and headed straight […]
Happy Memorial Day!
We’re headed to camp tonight. We’d planned to go last night, but tornadoes and flooding at the campground kept us away. They assigned us a new site and we planned to head up today. Torrential rain happened overnight. We woke up to huge rust torn out of our driveway where water cut its path down […]
Stormy Adventures
Last night we had a tornado threat. Co-op let out early in an attempt to get people home before the storms hit us. It hit in many places fairly close by, and people very close had damage from wind with trees falling. We spent a chunk of time in the basement without electricity, but that […]
Happy Easter, new job, contacts, skinny horses, and missing chicks.
It’s been a super busy week. Liberty had her interview and was hired at Braum’s. She worked Friday for the first time. The elementary kids had their spring musical at co-op. We’re wrapping up more subjects for school. I got contact lenses for the first time in twelve years. Liberty decided she was going to […]
I’m old.
So… the lice thing was anticlimactic. I kept combing and never found another thing that looked remotely suspicious. I have continued to check children randomly. Nothing. I panicked over nothing. I’ve never been so thrilled to have been wrong. We were moving the chicken tractor… 600 pound coop on two wheels… and I tripped and […]
