A BIG Ol’ Box of Books GIVEAWAY

Mar72018

Our bookshelves need a little cleaning off, and one fun way to do that is to share the book goodness with YOU all and give them away to one of my readers. That is, assuming you love free books. :) Many of the books are in brand new condition, but a few others may have some underlining or an earmarked corner or two.

What I’m Reading (and the Kids too) – March 2018

Mar62018

What have YOU been reading this month? I've been trying to branch out some in my reading genre (i.e. I'm a huge historical fiction fan and tend to get stuck in an era or genre).

Mar22018

Camping in the Snow and Other Fun – Homeschool and Life Happenings

Feb232018

How was your week? Here it's been feeling like a whole lotta spring, but also the weather has been fickle. And by fickle, I mean snow, ice, and freezing rain one day, and then two days later a balmy 75 degrees with the windows wide open and kids going nuts outside. Need proof? Zachary and Kaleb went camping with their Boy Scout troop over the weekend and hiked about … [Continue reading...]

March 2018 Planning Pages – Free Printable

Feb202018

Here comes March! I don't know how your year has been going, but February seems to have been flying by. School has been keeping us busy, along with a swim meet, volunteering, and a weekly evening service our church has been holding. The kids and I have all been helping with childcare, which makes the weeks go by even more quickly. Add in co-op classes and life, and good grief. I'm … [Continue reading...]
