About Me:

 Hi friends, 

I'm K. Wife to my amazing hubby & a home-school veteran who has been homeschooling my 2 kiddos for the past 6 1/2 years. I love the incredible memories that I am able to create with my kiddos each year and all the special moments we share every day while we learn and grow together. The past 6 years has taught me to slow down and savor each moment, to really relish each and every opportunity and take the time to appreciate the season I'm in and not try to hurry through it even if it may be difficult. Life has taught me that in those difficult seasons that is where I learn and grow the most because there are so many lessons to learn and glean from so its best to embrace it with a smile. 

One of our favorite things as a family is to include travel or exploring nature into our school year as much as possible because we all love to travel, hike, getting out into nature & exploring new places. Some of our best learning moments have happened while we were out exploring. It allows for all of our senses to be alert and for us to become more in tune with nature. We love discovering new places, hidden gems and places off the beaten path. It is so thrilling for us to discover a new favorite place and to make special memories there as a family. 

I also love to decorate, craft and do diy projects so you may see some of those floating around on here from time to time (perhaps it will be one of our school projects 😉).  You may also see info about organizing, planning and putting together events as I have become the decorator/planner for multiple events over the past few years and it is something that I love to do 😍😊

Thanks for joining me here, I'm so glad that you're along for the journey! I look forward to getting to know each other better and I'd love to read your comments so please message away with your thoughts, comments and questions!

Comprehensive Homeschool Resource List:

  Hello friends,  When I first began homeschooling I remember feeling so overwhelmed with all the choices, the stress and pressure of not knowing where to start and not wanting to make the wrong decisions or miss anything important. It was so much to try and sort through and I didn't know which direction was up. Thankfully I had several friends who had been homeschooling for several years share some of their wisdom with me, gave me tips and pointers and helped answer my questions. That was so invaluable to me as a newbie to homeschooling and I will always be so appreciative of their advice, encouragement and their time. It is my hope that this blog will be like a good friend to turn to when you are feeling stressed and overwhelmed and need somewhere to turn to find some advice and encouragement. I don't have all the answers and I don't know all the tricks, tips or cool home-school hacks but I can share what I've learned from my experiences with you and hope you will fee...
