The Value of a Roadside Stand for Homeschoolers

  The past several years, my kiddos have asked to have a roadside stand, but we only had a small garden which was just enough for us and to share a little with neighbors. Well after years of asking, we decided it was a great year to expand our garden and give the kiddos an

Wildflower Fun & Learning

  The first full week of May is National Wildflower Week, and who doesn’t love the beauty and color of the blooming wildflowers in spring! So, it is National Wildflower week so how can you celebrate? God planted so many lessons when he planted wildflowers, and now is the perfect opportunity to take part in

Independent Kids in the Kitchen

  My kids have always loved to help me in the kitchen and still do pretty much every day, but my oldest daughter is ready to start exploring the kitchen on her own. Letting kids take the reins is always bittersweet, but watching my kiddos grow and thrive independently is what I’m raising them to

Fun Pizza Night Remix

  Pizza night is always a family favorite in our home. We usually order from one of the local restaurants, and everyone gets a say in what we get. (And bonus, mom doesn’t have to cook!) Once and a while we get adventurous and make our pizza at home. We have several different favorite go-to

Family Dinner Plans

  My crew of kiddos, along with my sisters-in-law and three of their kiddos, started back to home-family school at the start of August. Two days a week, we get together at each other’s homes and have family school. It’s been wonderful, but back to school time means busy momma. One of our family school

Faith Goals: Reading the Bible in a Year

  As a kid and even in my teenage years, I always wanted to read the whole Bible, but when people talked about it (which was few and far between), it seemed like such a daunting task. Frankly, I did not think I was a “good enough” Christian to be able to read the whole

Hot Cocoa: Summer Style

  It may be the dog days of summer (Did you know that is a real thing, July 22 through August 22?), but hot cocoa is a year-round thing in our home. When I think hot cocoa, most times I think cozy sweaters, warm fireplace, snow, and the holidays. I previously wrote an article on

Backyard Tea Time

  It’s finally summer, and with warm, sunny days comes lots of backyard memories in the making. My kiddos create a bucket list every summer of activities or adventures they want to do, with a few added in from mom and dad. One bucket list item was added early in the year, a backyard tea

Hiking and Homemade Granola

  April was sure filled with showers of rain, which means May will be bountiful with blooms, buds, and new life all around. May is the perfect time to start planning family hikes and outings to local, state, or national parks. My family is blessed to live in an area where hiking trails and parks

Jelly Beans at Easter

  As Easter rolls around, one of my favorite candy treats hits the shelves… jelly beans! Traditional, sour, theme-flavored – I like almost all of them (well, maybe except those weird flavored ones and black licorice). But jelly beans are so much more than candy when it comes to Easter and a great way to

Slime, Putty, Sensory Play… Oh My

  Did you know on March 6 Silly Putty was invented in 1950?! The rest is history. Now we have slime, putty, gack, goop, so many sensory wonders; it’s truly a love-hate relationship. My kiddos absolutely love playing with playdough and Aaron’s Thinking Putty, but other parties in our home (cough, daddy) cringe at the

Sweet as Maple Season

Winter time in southwest Pennsylvania usually means snow, cold, sled riding, hot cocoa, and … maple season, one of the sweetest seasons around! If you are lucky enough to live in an area which produces maple syrup, it’s a pretty sweet life. 😉 The area in which my family lives in southwest Pennsylvania, we are
