Hey friends, it’s countdown to baby time over here, but I really wanted to get this post up before things get too crunched! It’s fun to look back on the year and see how much things have grown and changed in our homeschooling life. And how different our homeschool space looks now! Wrapping up a […]
I know all of you who are familiar with our recent kitchen saga have been waiting so long for a kitchen reveal! I have been dreaming of the day I could write this post myself. Well. It was a very, very slow process. My kitchen is now totally updated and redesigned, but to tell you […]
Well, here it is! The post where I tell you guys what materials and curriculum we are using for first grade (with an excited preschooler tagging a long!) We have dropped things I was just sure we would love, while picking up some unexpected additions. Our plan has been ever-evolving, as we follow the […]
Welcome our homeschool space! You don’t have to have a separate homeschool room to learn well. We certainly don’t; in fact, we homeschool all over the house in little learning corners and spaces. Let’s take a little tour! Rearranging our home to accommodate real life learning took a bit of thought, but it was easier […]
Time for a teensy blog update of only twenty-three paragraphs. It’s fine, I’m just blogging like it’s 2009. First things. Currently in bed at 8:30 listening to Dino and drinking english tea because #oldlady. Next, where have I been since April? For part of it, behind a desk writing and photographing a book of 109 […]
HELLO! Wow, January was a long time ago. I need to start blogging like it’s 2011 again. (Good goal for 2018…Blog Like It Is 2011.) When people post pictures of rooms I generally skip the words and go straight to the scrolling, but sometimes I do go back and read the blah, blah, blah at […]
Well, here we are, in 2017, beginning this second week of the new year with a kindergarten re-do! Last August we had planned to start K.K. in kindergarten, but I went in unprepared in every way. To make a very long story short, we quit after two weeks and I was low-key depressed about it […]
Wow, getting this post out every year is a lot like getting Christmas cards out. It’s not ever as perfect as I want it to be, but by golly, it gets done! By the sheer willpower of my ISTJ personality type. Easier and possibly even a little sloppier every year. (Last year’s post didn’t make […]
I just want to say thank you to my friend Amy Rutherford of Love’s Landing Photography for this special story of pictures and words she made for us! Amy, you energy and passion for children and families made these images! This session is a special package called Making Memories. Amy came over and documented our […]
Welcome, fall. I wrote you a poem: Your leaves are lovely, dear But if you could be chilly enough for me to wear a sweater without heat stroke YEAH, THAT’D BE GREAT. There was a time in life when I gave up on this idea of fall decorating. Everything I tried just felt fake […]
