Our Nursery and Diaper Question

I love Facebook memories that pop up! A year ago, my hubby and the kids finished this room while I was out of town. 💝 We call it the “love nest.” The views from this room are amazing. It always has wildlife out one window and the lake through another. It is small but perfect for […]

Remember Goliad…TEXAS History comes alive!

I had 8th grade Texas History many years ago.  If you live in Texas and go to public school – it is something they feel you should learn. My Texas History teacher, Coach C. was awesome!  He made it fun and exciting.  He probably doesn’t realize how much he has influenced others to teach, including […]

Once upon a time…there was a real fairy tale.

There is no other book that makes me appreciate my life more than the Word of God.  It is a Real Life Fairy Tale.  In my home school curriculum – it suggests that I teach my students to memorize the books of the Bible. I don’t know about you but sometimes I ponder “Why do […]
