Finding Life beyond the struggles
With school starting I figured now was a great time to share our homeschool curriculum. We have actually been "in school" since June, so we're already a few months in. Since starting, we’ve made some changes to the curriculum. So today I'm not only going to share what material we're using, but also why we... Continue Reading →
Yesterday I sat down and realized that since 2021 is done with, it was time to tally up the number of books I read last year. Turns out I read around 114 books. I did start on my 115th but since I'm in the middle of it I didn't count it. Today I'm going to... Continue Reading →
I first wrote this post in September 2020. Not much has changed since our first year of homeschooling, including my opinion. We have found great new materials to use and we've brought Isbe in with her very own workbooks (per her request, of course). This year, I'll even be doing some homeschooling myself, as I...

Happy Friday! I can't believe July is basically over already. What are you looking forward to next month? We will be picking up our school year again after the month long break we had. You would think with a month long break I would've read more books than I did, but I got a little... Continue Reading →
Good morning! Or whatever time it is as you read this. I hope you are having a good Tuesday.

We bought her her own homeschooling books that match Ade's and now she begs... Continue Reading →
Okay, I realize that this post is quite specific but bear with me as this list of presents could be tweaked in almost any way for the special man in your life. I just happen to be married to a guy who has made Star Wars his obsession (Lord of the Rings is a close... Continue Reading →
Hello, hello! How is the weather in your area? In a surprise move, the weather here has completely skipped fall and gone straight to winter. Now, normally it wouldn't be a surprise except for how early in the year it is. Honestly it seems like most years we don't get truly winter weather until January.... Continue Reading →
In the Outer Rim of a Galaxy Far, Far Away, there is a place on the planet of Batuu called Black Spire Outpost. It is in this obscure place that the First Order has come to sniff out the secret Resistance base. Thankfully for us, we don’t need a hyperdrive to reach this planet and... Continue Reading →
Last week we took a special vacation to Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. My husband and I have been before, but this visit was the first for the kids and it was the first time we visited "Star Wars Land", Batuu. To say it was amazing is an understatement and I was so not... Continue Reading →
I wanted to write Happy Almost-Christmas and about how Christmas is one week away and about the presents that I’m itching to open...but let’s be honest, this week is all about Star Wars. As Kylo Ren said, "I've been waiting for this day for a long time." If you don't know, our household is huge... Continue Reading →
